M&A for private companies

We provide sophisticated advice to leading growth and middle-market companies as well as large corporations in our core sectors of expertise. By combining the outstanding execution capabilities of our M&A team with the insights of our industry-focused bankers, we provide both strategic and tactical advice.

Acquisitions


Being a growth-focused investment bank means Bryan, Garnier & Co has built up strong expertise in advising and financing our clients’ acquisition strategies. We provide world-class acquisition support, advising on strategic and tactical approaches to optimise the probability and conditions of transactions.

Management Buy-Outs


Our M&A team has established itself as a leader in advising management teams and shareholders in conducting Management Buy-Outs / Buy-Ins. What sets us apart is our extensive industry expertise we leverage to conduct the transactions we lead.

Industrial Carve-Outs


Carve-outs are highly complex transactions which include a high level of uncertainty for buyers and sellers. As the business units in play invariably rely on the parent company for critical functions that are not part of the sales, these transactions require post-deal support from the seller and contractual frameworks for business continuity to help manage risks related to the separation and the transition of the assets.

M&A for public companies

Bryan, Garnier & Co has established itself as a leading mid-market firm in public M&A by combining its expertise in mergers and acquisitions with robust equity capital market capabilities. We have led numerous public M&As, including large and complex transactions involving both national and international public companies. Our public M&A assignments cover a wide range of deals: public-to-private transactions; public tender offers and mandatory redemption offers; mergers, de-mergers and restructurings involving listed companies; acquisitions and divestments of significant share stakes in listed companies; business acquisitions and divestments involving listed companies; and defence strategies against hostile take-over bids.

Public to Private (P2P)


We bring unique expertise to support private equity investors and listed companies when dealing with public-to-private situations. We advise private equity investors on their acquisition approaches to listed companies, or help listed companies find private equity sponsors capable of conducting such complex transactions.

Trade Sale


In an increasingly complex regulatory environment, Bryan, Garnier & Co’s M&A team has built up extensive experience in conducting public M&A, from strategic advice to the presentation of the offers to the market. The team has represented both buyers and sellers in a variety of situations.

Corporate Takeover Defense


Bryan, Garnier & Co’s investment banking team has built a strong record in assisting clients who are facing hostile takeover bids, in order to either fight off the bid and remain independent or to negotiate a transaction that maximises shareholder value.
