Our team helps mid-sized firms increase their value and yield greater profit to their investors. The way we do this is by finding the right opportunities for our clients to sell company divisions, acquire other firms, merge with another company or simply modify their capital structure.
Capitalization change
Modifying the capital structure of a company means finding a better balance between equity and debt, so that the business functions better, the company reputation improves, and its value therefore increases.
In order for our client to plan and carry out a successful capitalization change, we do a sound analysis of its financial situation, identify what can be improved, set goals, and conduct financial modeling that shows our client which is the best way for them to achieve those goals.
Divestment
Divesting a company’s non-core divisions means simply selling divisions which are not essential to the company’s main business. This move changes the company’s ownership and business portfolio.
We advise our clients to carry out divestment when, after a thorough analysis, we understand this will bring advantages such as making the company more stable, or allowing it to focus on what it does best, or eliminating a division that is performing poorly and dragging the company down.
Mergers & Acquisitions
Both merger and acquisition are self-explanatory terms — but in order to know when they are winning moves, the board needs a thorough understanding of both companies involved, as well as a sound valuation of current and predicted market opportunities.
This is what we do when advising on mergers and acquisitions. We carry out in-depth analyses to identify which companies will bring complementary capabilities to our client’s business, or allow it to create new products, sell in new areas or to new audiences, make the company for stable or financially stronger — in short, bring any advantage that will make the value of the combined companies greater than their individual values before.
Company sales
Sometimes, instead of acquiring another company, it’s the opposite that brings greater returns. Successful companies can be sold at immense profit for all stakeholders. This happens when the company that acquires it brings advantages such as an established reputation, new market opportunities, increased funding, etc.
When advising on company sales, our job is to identify the right moment for this move, and the best buyer. We analyze the company, understand and model the market, and spot which bidders offer our client the best deals for their business.
