The Presidio Group LLC (“Presidio”), an independent merchant
banking firm focused on mergers and acquisitions, capital raising,
and investments in the automotive retail and consumer mobility
sectors, announces the appointment of Kevin Tynan as Director of
Research, responsible for market insights, content creation and
client engagement focused on the U.S. franchised dealer network and
automotive technologies segments.
Mr. Tynan joins Presidio with 25 years of experience as an
automotive investment analyst and an award-winning career that
began on Wall Street in 2000. A turbulent time in the U.S. auto
industry, Mr. Tynan’s first views of the landscape included the
Ford vs. Firestone dispute, the terrorist attacks of 9/11 and a set
of domestic automakers with oppressive cost structures and debt
levels.
Crisis-tested within a few years, Mr. Tynan’s bearish view of
the industry made him the No. 2 ranked automobile manufacturing
sector analyst by Forbes/StarMine in 2004 and 2005. In 2007, The
Financial Times/StarMine rated Mr. Tynan as the top stock picker in
the automobile parts supplier sector. In April 2007, CNN Money
quoted him as calling a GM bankruptcy ‘inevitable’, approximately
two years before the company filed Chapter 11 in June 2009.
Mr. Tynan joined Bloomberg in 2009 as the one of the first
employees of Bloomberg Industries where he designed, built and
maintained global automotive coverage for North America, Europe and
Asia-based automakers. The unit became Bloomberg Intelligence as
the coverage team expanded to put analyst teams on the ground in
each region.
Mr. Tynan is a regular presenter on automotive and financial
television, radio and podcasts. He is recurring public speaker at
industry events and company teach-ins, as well as at many
dealership state association conventions. He has provided keynote
addresses for AL, DC, KY, LA, MD, MI, MN, MS, NJ, OH, TN, VA, WV
and at NADA.
“I’m very excited to join the Presidio family,” said Tynan.
“Decades spent watching, researching and analyzing the auto
industry have led me to the place where I can learn from and
interact with the advisors orchestrating the deals, the
technologists creating the products and the franchised dealers
moving the metal every day.”
