ACQUISITION FINANCING

Avaxa assists you in sell-side lender education and buy-side in raising leveraged financing to facilitate your envisaged acquisition. We use our fine-grained network of domestic and international traditional and alternative lenders, including credit funds, to your benefit. We can quickly ‘test the waters’ with different types of lenders across the entire debt spectrum, from asset-based debt to senior debt to unitranche and mezzanine debt. Avaxa’s initial market sounding gives you an early indication of what is possible in terms of leverage and debt quantum and against which terms and conditions.

By carefully selecting the right potential lenders to meet your financing need we are able to run a competitive debt raising process whilst keeping to the strict deadlines of the M&A process. This allows you to fully focus on the acquisition at hand and other workstreams such as due diligence.

To create optionality for you, we are able to run a dual-track process in parallel (credit fund / alternative lender versus traditional bank lender solution), to ensure committed funding at the closing of the transaction. Our reputation of dealmakers with a ‘can do’ mentality makes us very credible negotiators. Our up-to-date knowledge of financing market conditions allows us to negotiate sharp and on the cutting edge, yet in a satisfying way for all stakeholders involved.
