Herrera Partners provides a full spectrum of debt and equity transaction assistance including planning the form of transaction, developing descriptive selling memoranda, identifying financing providers, managing transaction due diligence, negotiating, structuring and closing the financing or recapitalization. We have access to a proprietary network of debt, mezzanine and equity financing sources. Whether you are seeking recapitalization, financial solutions to expansion or liquidity issues or acquisition funding, Herrera Partners has a proven capability in arranging a wide assortment of debt and equity placements for privately-held and publicly-traded middle market companies.

If you are considering a recapitalization, prospective buyout, acquisition, plant/equipment expansion, funding a captive finance subsidiary or other financial issue, look to Herrera Partners as your investment banker:
  • Our senior level, personal attention ensures that private placements are handled efficiently and effectively, with a high level of confidentiality.
  • Transaction assistance in the financing arena requires a strategic discipline coupled with an understanding of important market drivers. We offer independent, market-focused valuation expertise that often results in higher valuations, improved transaction structures and reduced borrowing costs.
  • Confidentiality is an important ingredient of success and is best maintained through a trusted, third-party intermediary. Managing a recapitalization or financing transaction off-site is crucial to preventing a breach of confidence among employees or hostile interference from outsiders and competitors.
  • Sarbanes Oxley has raised the bar for management and boards of directors and increased the importance of reliance on initial valuations and fairness opinions. We provide sound, independent counsel on financing matters, and have a proven ability to defend our valuations and fairness opinions in the event of litigation.
  • Managing a financing for a privately-held company or a small-cap public company requires a specific set of skills and talents. Our recurring business with existing clients is evidence of our financing expertise.
  • Our proprietary network of institutional and high net worth investors provides important insight regarding debt, mezzanine and equity financing issues. Clients engage us on a recurring basis, and investors - many of whom have worked with us and our clients repeatedly - trust us and respect our judgment and work product.
