Seller Representation
Anderson & Strudwick’s bankers have
represented hundreds of clients in successfully acquiring,
merging, divesting and selling business units or companies.
We have a unique approach
to sell side transactions that maximize price and obtain other
important commitments for our clients.
Confidentiality is another cornerstone of our unique approach to transactions. Utilizing our extensive knowledge of the market, we identify and qualify parties on a confidential basis, approaching only those candidates who have the greatest interest and capability to complete a transaction that meets our client’s objectives. Our vast experience in mergers and acquisitions attests to the necessary network and familiarity required to solve unique issues (tax, accounting, management, regulatory, etc.) and to ensure that our clients achieve the best results.
The principals of Anderson & Strudwick have built relationships with hundreds of strategic buyers in many different industries throughout much of the world. We recognize a sale as being the most important event in the life of a company and ensure that all reasonable alternatives are evaluated carefully.
Buyer Representation
A well executed acquisition strategy can create substantial growth and value. Our professionals have developed and executed successful acquisition strategies for major corporations and hundreds of clients. We assess thoroughly a client’s existing and prospective ability to acquire other companies; identify and develop a plan to pursue targets; contact targets on a confidential basis to promote a compelling rationale for a transaction; evaluate potential targets with respect to value, risks and benefits; negotiate and structure transactions; and obtain transaction financing.
Leveraged Buyouts (LBOS)
In almost all divestiture or change of ownership situations, a company insider or group of insiders is a potential acquirer. Anderson & Strudwick assists insiders in creating a business plan for the acquisition, assessing the value of the transaction, negotiating key terms, and developing a financing plan. Our professionals then use our extensive network of equity and debt sources to secure financing for the transaction.
Hostile Takeover Defense
Anderson & Strudwick fully understands
the issues surrounding “unsolicited” or “hostile”
attempts by predatory organizations or individuals to acquire
undervalued publicly held institutions. We assist an increasing
number of institutions in developing/executing effective shareholder
protection strategies that allow the client to achieve full
potential while withstanding the action of predators. In the
event that a sale is the best method to maximize shareholder
value, Anderson & Strudwick identifies and contacts potential
“white knights” to rescue the company from hostile
acquirers.
