If your company meets most of the criteria below, or you are part of middle management that would like to acquire the company you are working for or a competitor, please contact us by submitting a short but descriptive request SUBMIT A FUNDING REQUEST.
Reverse Merger Funding seeks to fund companies or management teams looking to make an acquisition, fund growth or buyout the existing owner. Here are some of the factors we consider before making a funding decision:
- Company should have at least 1 year of operations
- Gross revenues of approx. $2,000,000 or more
- Company is in a growth phase (needs capital for expansion and/or to pay off debt)
- Funding for a Middle Management Buyout
- Company would benefit from the acquisition of some of their competitors or complimentary businesses
- Company can maximize economies of scale by making a strategic acquisition
The management of Reverse Merger Funding has years of experience on Wall Street. We have funded and closed many successful reverse mergers, private placements, acquisitions and growth capital transactions. We look for existing companies with a good track record that are looking for growth through mergers, acquisitions or expansion into other markets.
In addition to funding transactions, we often form strategic alliances to help our portfolio companies increase sales or we can actively look for merger candidates. As discussed above, we like to work with middle management for Buyout Funding through Reverse Merger Funding or Debt and Equity Financing. Contact us for a confidential discussion of the possible options that are available. You might be surprised at the options available to middle management interested in a buyout, even if they are unable to put up any capital or assets for the buyout.
Business brokers are welcome. We source many deals through brokers and consultants and are willing to work with them on reasonable terms.
Although we look for reverse merger transactions, we actually have been involved in funding many companies that are already publicly listed. If your company is already a publicly trading company looking for financing please feel free to Submit a Request. We have affiliations with other broker-dealers on Wall Street and other parts of the United States and might be able to help with your specific funding needs and structure.
The Reverse Merger Funding team has worked with many different
debt and equity structures over the years. Convertible debentures are our
preferred financing structure. We also can work with you on asset based
loans, debt with an equity kicker, equity lines of credit and convertible
preferred financing.
If you are part of a
management team that is looking for funding to buyout the current owner or
owners that is important for us to know. A Middle Management Buyout is one of the things we
look for since we know current management will have a good understanding of the
business and how it is run.
We also look for mergers and
acquisitions and can work with you if you are considering several acquisitions
over the next two or three years. The funding we provide can also be done in
several tranches or stages to fund future acquisitions. We have expertise in
many areas and have strategic relationships that may be able to help your
company with its growth plans, product distribution, marketing and investor
relations.
Some of the fields we favor for our
investment portfolio include:
•
Medical products
•
Medical services
•
Manufacturing
•
Environmental testing
•
Environmental remediation
•
Green/environmental technology
•
Renewable energy
•
Energy technology
• Biofuels
•
Bioproducts
Another thing to keep in mind
is that small companies don't usually fare to well in reverse merger situations
because of the cost of running a public company. Each year dozens of people
make the mistake of entering the public marketplace too early and
under-capitalized.
Try growing your business first and
then look to reverse into a shell to raise capital for mergers and
acquisitions, to buy a strategic or complementary business or maybe even buyout
one of your competitors to gain market share for your products or services.
Another good opportunity that may
present itself for Reverse Merger Funding is the Middle Management Buyout discussed
above. However, even if you are not part of the management team in that
company, but know the industry and feel confident you can run the company, then
Buyout Funding is also
a good idea and we would like to talk to you. We don't always need to
fund a reverse merger and occasionally will fund a good private company and
take them public through a direct public offering (DPO) at a later time.
