Mergers & Acquisitions Advisory

Our M&A Practice provides advisory services to owners of building industry companies, primarily with $25 million to $500 million in revenues, in connection with a potential sale of the company or a strategic acquisition. Our firm fosters long-term relationships with clients as their independent advisor on strategic matters and transactions such as mergers, acquisitions, recapitalizations and restructurings.

Our firm has worked with leading building industry companies to explore and optimize their exit/liquidity alternatives, assist in the process of confidentially selling or recapitalizing their businesses and/or divesting certain assets and operations. We also work with leading strategic and financial buyers to source and execute acquisitions within their respective focus areas and to finance those acquisitions.

Capital Advisory

Anchor Peabody’s Advisory Service advises building industry companies in the restructuring and/or refinancing of existing loans and in the sourcing and optimizing of terms on new senior, mezzanine and/or other debt/equity capital. The goal of our practice is to arm building industry companies with the market knowledge and technical expertise necessary to effectively evaluate and affect viable capital-related solutions. We believe it is imperative for companies who want or need to explore options for maturing loans, refinancing loans and/or searching for new debt and equity capital, to run a proactive, thorough and sophisticated process.

We believe our building industry focus and decades of experience as operators, owners, acquirers and sellers of middle-market building products companies gives our firm unique insights into:

• Prudent and feasible capital structures and debt terms for building industry/cyclical industry-based firms

• Which capital sources (bank and non-bank) are currently providing capital to the building products industry, and which are a fit for a particular company’s profile and needs

• How to position a company’s story and financial position to the right lenders in the current market environment

• How to renegotiate existing loans and/or optimize the structure, terms, pricing and flexibility on new debt capital.
