Each initial inquiry is dealt with by a member of the team with the inquiry being passed to those geographically convenient to speak/meet with management and, if required in the early stages, the member of our group who has experience and/or expertise in the sector that your company operates.
Being able to call on a group of professionals, rather than a centralized company, we are able to assemble a team, in short order, that is best able to offer the most relevant services to your company. For example, if your company is based in the US, in the Internet sector and requires funding, then we will put you in touch with our US partners initially who will discuss your requirements and then call in our Internet specialists and funding partners to discuss how we are able to help with your query.
FeesIt is our preferred methodology to work with private businesses as a partner i.e by participating in the transaction from a funding basis or fee basis structured in shares. Fees are based on the complexity of the transaction, whether we offer in-house funding and the time it will take to put the transaction together.
Our service is based on producing the best possible outcome for the listed entity when the transaction is completed. With this in mind a suitable shell corporation will cost in the region of $400,000 and, as a group, we will typically require 5%-10% of the listed entity going forward, depending upon our participation.
Providing that your company is suitable (i.e profitable, scalable and suited to being a public company) then we are able to arrange acquisition and funding of the shell ourselves, on an arms length basis, prior to negotiating the terms of the proposed merger. If a merger cannot be agreed our group reserves the right to utilize the shell for another transaction.
Preferred Companies
The best merger candidates are companies who have achieved profitability, have a scalable business plan that could be executed more efficiently with increased access to capital markets and one which has a strong management team.
Start ups and conceptual ideas are rarely suitable for the reverse merger process because of the ongoing costs of being public and the reluctance on behalf of funders to participate in funding start up ventures. However, start ups that have a strong business plan, experienced management and funding support, may find the reverse merger process useful for adding liquidity to their funding requirements. We are willing to discuss the process with companies who fit this criteria, however, our requirements are stringent and participation from our group is not guaranteed.
