What We Do Odin Financial Advisors provides financial advisory services to strategic and private equity clients with a focus in mergers, acquisitions, acquisition financing, capital raising and strategic financial advisory solutions. Buy-side and Sell-side Mergers and Acquisitions We bring an innovative approach to our clients’ needs utilizing our past experiences in international cross- border deal making. The mergers and acquisitions business is the center of our practice where we excel in domestic and international transactions including private equity investments, asset sales/divestitures, joint ventures, and corporate restructurings. We provide our clients strategic and tactical solutions during the transactions combined with our strong industry expertise. Auctions and Exclusive Sale of Assets As we are managing an auction our objective is to maximize shareholder returns. In this regard, first we assess investor appetite in the market. If we see there is strong investor interest taking into consideration the trends in the global economic outlook, overall investor sentiment, financing availability and growth trajectory in the sector, we provide indicative valuation assessment to our clients. We then negotiate and consummate the auction process with a number of investors, advising our clients on the most favorable transaction timing, structuring, pricing, and potential financing terms. Capital Raisings Our objective is to understand the company’s most favorable sources of capital. We study the market and the industry diligently as to how we can position the company in front of investors and effectively share its story with a selective investor group who we believe to be the right partner(s) for the company to realize its long-term objectives. Long-term, Confidential, Strategic Financial Advisory Our bankers are highly experienced professionals who bring a set of diverse skill sets obtained through cross- border deal making. We pay tremendous attention for our bankers’ approach to transactions to be perfectly aligned with our clients’ long term objectives and information on our clients and their companies to be handled in highest confidentiality. Our objective is to work with our clients for a long period and in parallel take part in the growth of their businesses and/or portfolio companies.
