Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A)
CS Corporate Advisors continues growing and expanding its recognition due to the number of transactions that have been closed and worked on since its incorporation.
CS Corporate Advisors works together with professionals from other fields to maximise the value of the transaction, coordinating the multidisciplinary efforts. In this respect, we work together with the company lawyers (tax, legal, employment,..), and are in close contact with the Due Diligence Teams when the documentation is being prepared.
These are the main areas that CS Corporate Advisors advises on:
Mergers & Acquisitions
Leveraged transactions
Leveraged Buy Out (LBO), Management Buy Out (MBO) and Management Buy In (MBI)
Family Office advisory services
Rise in Capital
International expansion
Divestments
Company Valuation
Fairness opinions
Valuations & Fairness opinions
La Valuations & Fairness opinions responds to a need to determine the purchase price of any given transaction (buy or sell side).
Some of the normal situations to do a valuation are:
Purschasing or selling a stake in the company
Merger
Raise in Capital
For financial or tax purposes
Fairness opinions
Generational succession
CS Corporate Advisors’ work includes both the accounting, economic, and financial analyses required to carry out the Company Valuation—using the most relevant commonly accepted methods for each specific case—as well as the steps that follow the valuation and fall within the buy-side or sell-side transaction process.
Financing
The multidisciplinary team in CS Corporate Advisors is made up of professionals who have previously worked in some of the main Spanish banks and European investment banks.
Among the financing services that CS Corporate Advisors offers, you can find:
Debt Restructuring
Structured finance (Senior Debt, Subordinated Debt, Mezzanine, Syndicates…)
Off Balance Sheet Financing
Project Finance
Business Plan
Our business plan service creates and develops financial models for specific business projects. The main objectives of these plans are to establish a strategic control in the medium-long term, define future planning, optimize the financial management of the company and settle a document that serves as the basis for searching external financing, either through debt or equity.
In this sense, CS Corporate Advisors offers to its clients a group of professionals with extensive experience in the field of business consulting, together with their expertise as advisers in buy and sale processes, as well as capital increases.
Business plan preparation services are a fundamental part of capital increases processes, with the objective of raising funds among external investors, whether private, industrial or institutional. The creation of value from a transaction will highly depend on the rigor and quality of the business plan prepared, as it will serve as the basis for undertaking the project in the future.

CS Corporate Advisors offers strategic advice in addition to the corporate finance division, by establishing track records in tactical planning that contributes to the review of the strategic options and potential pursuit of growth through the M&A process.
