GH Approach to Blank-Check Companies (SPACs)
Are you a SPAC blank check company looking for a target?
- We have a running list of firms in specific industries which may be of interest to you. Let us assist in finding you the best targets for a deal that will close
- If you have identified a target, we will look out for your interests and work with your public equity capital markets partner to help ensure lasting success
- In the uncommon event of an uncomfortable re-valuation discussion in the face of high potential redemptions, we may assist in delivering the news, reviewing the valuation analysis and re-positioning the transaction
Are you a potential target looking for transaction help?
- We will run a process for your firm contacting the appropriate counterparties from our database of blank check companies and our connections to and within their Advisory Boards
- When a deal is announced to be in discussions, we will assist in bringing in the right equity capital markets partners and negotiating fees down
- Is your firm is not quite ready for a capital raise? We can assist you in finding a bridge to transaction (e.g. raise private capital or execute a merger) to advance your business plan to the point where a SPAC or other vehicle is right for your firm
GH Approach to Leveraged and Complex Transactions
