Corporate Finance

Financial Advisory

Capital budgeting, debt and equity financing, working capital management, and more for small and mid-cap firms.

In the realm of financial management, our primary goal is to continually increase shareholder value. This requires careful analysis and allocation of the firm’s limited resources between different investment opportunities. We assess growth projects based on their positive net present value, considering an appropriate discount rate and the associated risks. Our corporate finance services also involve determining the appropriate capital structure for the firm, whether through equity or debt financing.

Capital budgeting, a crucial aspect of corporate finance, involves planning long-term projects that add value to the corporation. We help companies make informed decisions about which projects should receive investment funding to enhance the firm’s overall value. This may include expansion policies, mergers and acquisitions, or other strategic investments. Additionally, we assist in evaluating the balance between investments and payouts of dividends to shareholders, as well as managing debt repayment.

The sources of capital for corporations vary, and we provide guidance on leveraging debt and equity capital effectively. Debt capital can be obtained through bank loans, notes payable, or bonds issued to the public. We help corporations structure their debt obligations and manage interest payments, ensuring the financial health of the company. Equity capital, on the other hand, involves selling shares of the company to investors. We assist in attracting investors by demonstrating a positive rate of return on capital and increasing shareholder value over time.

Portfolio M&A

In addition to our comprehensive corporate finance services, GIA also specializes in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advisory. We understand that M&A transactions are complex, especially im the energy industry with broad portfolios of high-value assets, and require careful analysis and strategic planning. Our team of experts provides guidance throughout the entire M&A process, from identifying potential targets and conducting due diligence to negotiating deal terms and facilitating post-merger integration.

With our deep industry knowledge and extensive network of global partners, we help companies identify suitable acquisition targets that align with their growth objectives. Our due diligence process involves a thorough assessment of the target company’s financials, operations, and market position to ensure a strategic fit and mitigate risks. We also assist in valuing the target company and structuring the deal to maximize value for our clients.

In the ongoing debate between maximizing shareholder value and considering stakeholder interests, we recognize the importance of creating value for all stakeholders. While shareholder theory dominates corporate strategy, we understand the need to balance the interests of employees, suppliers, and the local community.
