Transaction Assistance
Maddox has substantial M&A experience, working with investment banks and private equity / VC houses to execute deals. We have either worked alongside such entities during transactions, or worked directly for them. These have included Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan (Private Equity), Rothschild, PPM Ventures and Schroders. In addition we work with start-ups and new ventures.
Our transaction assistance leverages the skills used in our other practice areas
such as commercial due diligence, business plan development and valuation. We
work interactively with transaction teams, meet the tight deadline requirements
and are adept at ensuring our analysis can be readily ‘flexed’ and
flow through to other work streams. We have substantial experience working with
other types of advisors on transactions (e.g. lawyers, accountants, industry
experts, investment bankers, debt providers etc.), and with management at target
companies.
We undertake both buy- and sell- side mandates, and we are well versed at customising
the analysis and output material towards different audiences (equity participants,
debt providers, Boards etc.).
For sell-side mandates, our involvement has included designing the bid process, preparing Information Memorandums, evaluating and recommending reforms to the legal / regulatory framework, evaluating bids, drafting commercial and financial elements of the sale and shareholders agreements, and assisting in negotiations.
Maddox team members have worked in a number of situations where senior management of the target company have remained as part owners alongside the new financial owners (e.g., VC or private equity) to help them ensure that the strategic, commercial and financial objectives of the transaction are met.
