How We Can Help

Financial Advisory Partners provides a wide range of services. Our team members have a solid track record of successful engagements for clients in diverse businesses, each with unique needs and expectations. Our business is built upon advising clients in these key strategic areas:

• Mergers & Acquisitions

  
  The concept of merging or acquiring is relatively easy; the work required to accomplish a successful transaction however, is not. Growing revenue and market share, expansion into new products or services, or sharply focusing on a fundamental business are just a few of the many reasons companies seek merger and acquisition opportunities. Financial Advisory Partners can assist you and your management team with the process of defining merger or acquisition objectives. We can initiate a comprehensive search that targets and prioritizes potential candidates and can lead the process from initial contact through due diligence and closing.
  
  When contemplating a merger or acquisition, it is important to obtain advice from seasoned professionals.
  
  The Financial Advisory Partners team has more than 125 years of combined experience in initiating, managing and completing transactions.
  
  You can be confident that our team has the experience to meet the challenges associated with your merger and acquisition activities and to ensure that your interests are well represented.
  
  

• Sales & Divestitures
  

  
  One of the hardest decisions a business faces is when and how to sell all or part of the company. Examples of strategies that might call for sale or divestiture include diversification, estate planning, capital constraints or the need to refocus products or services. The principals of Financial Advisory Partners are well aware of the complex challenges associated with sales and divestitures, because they have both advised clients on these matters and held leadership positions in companies that were sold or divested discrete operations.
  
  Financial Advisory Partners will take you through a step-by-step process for selling or divesting a business. Most importantly, we help you establish realistic goals and work with you to reach those goals through conclusion of the sale.
  
  

• Financing
  

  
  Whether you need to raise capital or restructure current debt, you require an advisor who has a high degree of creativity, integrity and in-depth knowledge of the financial markets. Financial Advisory Partners’ process for developing financing packages includes identification of complex issues, determination of potential strategies, analysis of alternatives and delivery of creative solutions. We have a solid understanding of the capital marketplace and the people who make it work.
  
  The principals of Financial Advisory Partners have helped companies raise billions of dollars of debt and equity capital in both public and private markets. Our objective is simple: to make sure the capital you obtain is right for your business and is under the best terms possible.
  
  

• Consulting Services
  

  
  We recognize that as important as financial matters are, businesses must operate efficiently in order to realize their potential. That is why, as a complement to our other services, we also offer our clients consulting advice to help meet their needs. Our team of principals has experienced first-hand the broad challenges of running a business, ranging from small start-ups to multi-billion dollar conglomerates. We offer practical hands-on assistance in a variety of areas, including operational realignment, strategic planning, accounting, system solutions and employee matters. Your success matters to us and we’re willing to roll-up our sleeves to help you achieve it.
  
  

• Creative Partnership Structuring
  

  
  Our clients are not just our customers. They are also our partners and friends. Financial Advisory Partners works closely with our clients to determine their needs, both operationally and financially. Once the needs are identified, we work together to develop the type of operating and capital structure that is right for each client.
  
  Joint ventures and licensing agreements represent just two examples of creative partnerships used in today’s highly competitive business environment. Structuring such agreements between two independent companies can often substantially enhance the return on existing investments. Typically, assuring the success of such arrangement requires the advice and guidance of a trusted advisor.
  
  We also have experience in direct equity partnerships with our clients in ways that leverage our investment of time and capital, while simultaneously maximizing our clients’ overall return and meeting their objectives.
