Ah, the ChapStick mandate seems to be a bit of a mystery, doesn't it? Unfortunately, the WSO content doesn't provide specific information on which bank had the advisory role for the sale of ChapStick to Yellow Wood Partners. It's not uncommon for some deals to fly under the radar without the advisors being publicly disclosed.

If you're looking to dig deeper, you might want to check out the usual suspects who have a strong presence in the consumer goods sector. Banks like Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, and others often pop up in these types of transactions. But without a specific mention in the WSO threads or databases, it's a bit like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

For the most accurate info, you might want to reach out directly to industry insiders or keep an eye on any updates that might surface on the WSO forums. The monkeys over there are pretty good at getting the inside scoop eventually!
