The principals of Blum & Co. have a 22-year track record of many dozens of successful strategic advisory engagements and investment banking and related transactions, including several among the largest ever completed. These assignments have included:
- Complex financial structuring and raising from $4 million to $2 billion of debt and equity;
- Sophisticated in-depth sale advice and highly successful sole and co-management of sales of companies and divestitures of subsidiaries and divisions;
- Full-breadth acquisition structuring and advice - ranging from straightforward identifying and negotiating with targets, to fending off competing higher bids for public companies, to hostile takeovers - all with very high closing success rates;
- Provision of strategic financial advice for senior corporate managers and Boards of Directors - including the development of strategic plans for established companies and the formulation of plans for new enterprises and business segments. Our particular strengths in providing such strategic advice are (i) our detailed knowledge of the relevant markets and (ii) our in-depth expertise and experience in raising the money and closing the deals to implement the advice and make the results successful; and
- ESOP ownership transitions, including partial purchases and buyouts by employees in private corporations and ESOP privatization of governmental units.
