PIPEs:
Private Investments in Public Equity transactions are our core competency and our team has experience in structuring and placing PIPE transactions from issuers across the industry spectrum listed on various exchanges. Our intuitive knowledge of the myriad of nuances regarding the financial conventions of this financing technique, coupled with our long-standing relationships with premier institutional investors allows us to quickly execute a seamless transaction.
We have experience in structuring PIPE transactions for issuers whose securities are listed in following countries (all denominated in the local currency):
United States
Canada
United Kingdom
Germany
New Zealand
With the time and cost advantage PIPE transactions have relative to registered secondary offerings, public companies are increasingly accessing the capital markets for their growth capital in this fashion.
ATMs:
At-The-Market (ATM) offerings provide an efficient method of raising capital over time, allowing listed companies to utilize the liquidity in their exchange traded shares to their advantage.
ATMs enable companies to incrementally raise capital at market prices, rather than via a traditional capital raise, where a fixed number of shares are offered at a fixed price, and often at a discount to the market price.
By utilizing liquidity in their exchange traded shares strategically, an ATM can result in a lower cost of capital when compared to more traditional financing methods such as private placements.
Private on Privates
Our corporate finance team also works with private companies to raise capital in the form of private offerings of their securities. The time to market is typically much longer for these types of transactions and the securities are typically placed with large strategic or venture capital investors.
Debt Capital Markets
When a client's financing objectives cannot be adequately addressed by an offering of equity or equity linked solutions, our corporate finance team is able to advise on the structuring and execution of complex non-equity capital transactions that precisely matches the client's funding objectives and maintains the integrity of their capital structure. This is accomplished by analyzing all debt market alternatives (including terms and conditions, structures, transaction feasibility and market capacity), understanding optimal levels of leverage and potential intercreditor arrangements, and negotiation of term sheets and documentation.

Bank / Fund Debt (Senior, Junior Second Lien, Mezzanine, Bridging, Acquisition Finance and PIK
