Corporate Finance
At the heart of, and as a prerequisite for the successful strategic development of companies, is the establishment of a tailor-made financing strategy.
This includes both the financing of corporate growth with new sources of capital and the optimization of existing financing structures as well as, for example, the raising of required funds in special situations (e.g. bridge facilities; fresh money).
Additional requirements result from complex structured financings, such as acquisition financings and project financings (e.g. greenfield/brownfield, wind and photovoltaic parks), which require special analysis and preparation with the aim of implementation through a combination of debt, hybrid and equity components.
The multitude of available instruments must be evaluated individually with regard to the respective situation and structures must be planned with a view to further parameters (e.g. maturity spectra, rating classes, financing costs, leverage, debt capacity and flexibility levels from the documentation). The spectrum ranges from traditional debt financing with the help of lenders such as banks to tapping private placements, bonds, mezzanine/hybrid capital or raising equity capital from institutional investors and funds, family offices or on the capital market.
Special options also exist in the establishment of non-bank financing instruments as well as asset-related financing structures (on/off-balance, factoring, etc.).
We analyze your initial situation, your strategy and goals and evaluate your possible courses of action and financing options as well as the optimal instruments for company acquisition, company sale or company succession. We develop financial models, create alternative scenarios and take over the project management from the preparation of marketing documents to the selection and approach of financing/capital partners and possible valuation issues for the successful acquisition and implementation of a financing/capital measure.
1As part of targeted market approaches, we establish and conduct financing and investment talks with potential financing partners (such as banks, funds, and investors as well as alternative players and family offices) from our own contact network in Germany, Europe and worldwide.
2With a focus on the desired financing and capital structure, we analyze and evaluate the available offers, support the final negotiation of contractual parameters of the financing and capital instruments individually as well as in interaction with each other, with the aim of optimising both legal and commercial aspects as well as possible degrees of freedom / restrictions and thus ensuring a successful conclusion for our clients.
3We combine our excellent market knowledge and solution-oriented creativity with our broad, international network of financial institutions and alternative capital partners in order to establish the right corporate financing and capital structure for your corporate strategy and thereby realize a high strategic fit and added value for you. Please do not hesitate to contact us.
