The services C&L Advisory offers include:

  • divestments - selling a company either in full (100% sell down) or in part (a partial sell down with a rolled equity component). C&L Advisory has a strong track record of running both full auction processes and discreet (limited buyer universe) sale processes

  • acquisitions - buying another company to expand market position, expand product range, add a skill set or other strategic motive. C&L Advisory are experts at acquisition process positioning, acquisition analysis and deal finalisation

  • mergers - merging with another company can add significant value if the merger hypothesis is well considered and well executed. C&L Advisory have considerable expertise in developing merger hypothesises, navigating the complexity of merging with another company and identifying opportunities (synergies, competitive positioning) that result from a merger

  • debt capital raising - debt funded growth can be an efficient way of realising opportunities without diluting equity. Debt funding can be sourced from vanilla senior debt providers through to non-traditional sources such as mezzanine private credit markets. At C&L Advisory, we understand the sources and costs of debt capital markets, the impact on cash flows as well as the opportunities debt funded growth can create

  • equity capital raising - equity capital can be as sophisticated as a private equity investment or can be sourced from sophisticated investors. At C&L Advisory, we understand equity capital markets and have a strong track record of successful equity capital engagements

  • due diligence (vendor and buy side) - every transformational opportunity carries reward as well as risk. Thorough due diligence can help identify areas of opportunity, concern, risk and value erosion. Paul Hindle expertly leads the C&L Advisory due diligence team and has many decades of experience expertly advising on mid market and large transaction

  • valuations - understanding the market valuation of an opportunity provides insights and provides for deal parameters. At C&L Advisory, we are experts at assessing value and providing supporting guidance
