Corporate Finance Consulting Services

Prasad & Company LLP offers corporate finance consulting services to support critical financial decisions in M&A, financing, capital structure, and capital allocation. As businesses evolve, we understand that their financing needs become more complex, and growth priorities can shift. With our seasoned corporate finance and accounting expertise, we have trusted advisors to private and owner-operated companies to support value creation efforts that generate sustainable shareholder returns.

Financing Decisions

Our team works directly with clients to recommend financing alternatives (debt, equity, hybrid) that achieve business needs while optimizing the cost of capital. Some of our specialty areas in this domain include helping businesses with the following:

  • Raising finance to support capital expenditures and/or other organic growth initiatives
  • Raising finance to support the acquisition of a business or its asset(s)
  • Recapitalizations and bridge financing to monetize equity
  • Refinancing existing credit facilities with senior or mezzanine lenders
  • Communicating and coordinating financing arrangements with banks and private lenders

Investing Decisions

A sound strategic plan is only as good as its tactical execution. We assist clients in forming a data-driven, agile investment plan for informed capital allocation through rigorous analysis and scenario planning. In turn, this provides management teams with structured frameworks for investment decision-making and helps them manage risk while growing long-term shareholder value.

Our practice further encompasses M&A advisory, where we help businesses evaluate, acquire, and integrate targets to accelerate growth and gain access to new markets. We can support clients through each step of the process here, from the development of an acquisition strategy to conducting outreach with targets, triangulating valuations, leading negotiations, and ultimately closing a successful acquisition. We also have a successful track record in sell-side mandates to position companies for sale to both strategic and financial buyers and help them realize the maximum value from their business.

Some of our key areas of expertise include:

  • Establishing a pipeline of potential targets based on strategic fit and financial feasibility
  • Developing valuations, financial models and funding structures for prospective transactions
  • The performing company, industry, and financial due diligence to identify and flag risks
  • Coordinating internal teams and external advisors to run seamless transaction processes
  • Advising on post-acquisition integration efforts

  • Reviewing and structuring shareholder and partnership agreements
  • Crafting long-term business plans for strategic direction and capital-raising purposes
