    Financial Restructuring

    Often companies seeking growth capital are opportunistic, and eventually find themselves with a less-than-optimal mix of common and preferred stock, convertible debt and government loans.  Such companies could benefit from a restructuring that lowers the overall cost of capital, extends maturities and presents potential new investors or acquirers with less complex financial statements.

    Valuation

    We independently assess the value of companies using analysis of discounted cash flow, comparable acquisition and investment transactions, and publicly traded companies.  Our analysis is supplemented by our knowledge of current market conditions and trends in the mobile industry.
