With the focus on what is best for your business, sometimes advice is required which will result in a transaction not taking place. Strategic mergers and acquisitions advice can involve what not to buy as well as advising on the deal itself.

In addition to providing pure transaction-based advice, we can provide comprehensive advice on a range of related mergers and acquisitions issues, including: capital and share structure option analysis; financing alternatives; business planning focusing on future growth strategies; succession planning; merger integration; business restructuring and recovery; and commercial negotiation.

Many private businesses have no clear path to the extraction of asset value to the owners. We can provide advice to proprietors on the strategies that will enable them to realise the value of the asset they have developed in their business. This may involve a process of sale or divestiture of leverage buy-out positioning.

In order for business to develop, growth capital is required. The quantum of that capital and the structuring of the ratio of debt, equity and hybrid capital is essential to the success of the business. We can assist in the determination of capital needs and then structure and manage the capital raising.
