Transaction History with Potential Buyers: Whereas many public companies have deep experience negotiating with counterparties in a commercial relationship, our professionals have significant experience interacting with A&D buyers in a transaction environment.

We provide the experience and transactional support management teams need to:

(i) Understand and address past or recent buyer behavior, and thoughtfully engage with likely buyers from an experienced transaction perspective;

(ii) Proactively address potential buyer-specific pitfalls, while maximizing optionality at key decision points in the process;

(iii) add credibility to the process in the eyes of a potential buyer through the bidding environment;

(iv) maintain strict confidentiality within your organization;

(v) support a transaction with adequate resources to maintain control of the process and ensure that it moves in a deliberate, timely manner;

(vi) insulate the management team from the day-to-day demands of the M&A process, so they can remain squarely focused on running the company for peak performance; and

(vii) assist our clients in realizing the maximum valuation for the business.

Insulating the commercial relationship: We are skilled negotiators and provide the credibility to hold firm on difficult terms during the negotiation process - a key element in delivering higher overall value. We guide our clients through every step of the transaction including the setting of terms, structure, indemnities, currencies, escrows, reserves and other key issues. In particular, we are able to negotiate hard on your behalf, protecting key deal points in a manner that insulates the commercial relationship from the transaction negotiation.

Buy-side support: The Janes Capital Partners team brings a diverse set of operational and financial backgrounds to each buy-side campaign. Our team has substantial experience in conducting directed and broad acquisition campaigns, assisting your team in identifying, segmenting, analyzing, and approaching specific targets. We leverage our senior professional's former operating experience to bring a unique perspective to diligence that few banks can offer.
