Sight & Sound Productions, Inc. has been acquired by Dubin Clark & Company, Inc.

Sight & Sound Productions, LLC and subsidiaries have been recapitalized by Dubin Clark & Company, Inc. The partnership brings together two Jacksonville-based companies and supports the firms’ continued growth in event rentals and production by adding complementary services and local strength.

Sight & Sound is a leading provider of event planning and audio-visual production, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida. The company was founded in 1987 by Curt Hubbard and initially named Hubbard Sight & Sound AV, Inc. In 1996, Curt hired Jon Davis, the current owner, who advanced through the organization to become president in 2000 and sole owner in 2010. Since then, the company has grown through acquisition, notably purchasing Mugwump Productions, an event decor and design business servicing corporate and high-end social events, in 2009. Sight & Sound currently operates from its 43,000 square foot facility and serves both local and national customers in their event production needs.

Dubin Clark is a private equity firm, established in 1984, that focuses on strategic and operational value creation and seeks to acquire interest in specialty services and branded niche manufacturing companies with unique business models and strong growth trajectories. The firm has offices in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, where it is headquartered, and Miami Beach, Florida.

Oaklins Heritage in Jacksonville, USA, served as the intermediary and exclusive financial advisor to the seller in this transaction, preparing the company for a transition, identifying potential buyers, negotiating the terms of the transaction and closing the transaction.

Their local knowledge and strategic insight were invaluable in helping us find the right buyer here in Jacksonville. We’re incredibly grateful for their support and couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome.”
