Leveraging relationships formed over years and our experiences we achieve high degrees of market access and value for the organization

  • Company Preparation – Your company has been meticulously shaped into a well-running firm achieving its highest potential as an operating concern. We advise and structure your firm for acquisition and achieving the highest return.

After we assess the company we carefully review each potential buyer and find the best fit maximizing value for all parties.

Buy Side Advisory

Often our clients have an idea of the target acquisition, but some do not. In either case, we run a process to ensure a good fit and value for our client.

  • Strategy – Building a profile of an ideal acquisition and post-acquisition outcomes allows for a solid strategy and tactics to maintain focus during the process. Using this profile, we source targets and possibly unique otherwise unconsidered opportunities.
  • Target – Not every company will seek to be acquired. We spend time ensuring there is proper alignment between all parties. In some cases that takes patience and perseverance. We create synergies overtime when necessary to ensure the proper outcomes.
  • Advising – We maintain a robust network and knowledge of the industries we practice in, allowing our team to provide key insights and open the appropriate doors when the timing is right.

Private Capital Raises

Market opportunities abound whether as part of an acquisition strategy or to capture market share capital is needed to take advange of those opportunities. We have the network and experience to bring that capital to work.

We work with the company to create a comprehensive plan designed to be a guide throughout the process. Ridged enough to ensure focus, but flexible enough to account for the changes that will inevitably need to be made.
  • Forecasting – Second in importance to the strategy is the detail financial forecast for a range of capital receipt and post funding. Ensuring a defensible and strong forecast will bring comfort to the funding partner, how they will reap their returns, and how the company will measure the success of the strategy.
