Corporate Finance Advisory

Enable decision-makers to make important financial decisions without the need for elementary deliberation.

When an organization’s senior leaders have a strong sense of financial direction, it becomes easier for them to resist the misconception that the established rules of economics may no longer apply to their company.

WHAT ACTIVITIES ARE INVOLVED?

There are various activities involved in Corporate Finance, some of which are:

  • De-mergers and takeovers of public companies
  • Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) of private companies
  • Private equity buyouts or buy-ins of companies, divisions, or subsidiaries
  • Restructuring corporate debt or debt funds
  • Equity issuance by companies
  • Listing of companies on a recognized stock exchange
  • Raising capital via equity, debt, or both
  • Raising seed, start-up, development, or expansion capital
  • Raising capital for specialist corporate investment funds
  • Funding joint ventures
  • Soliciting infrastructure finance
  • Public-private partnerships
  • Secondary equity issuance

At Affility, we can help you analyze each of the above elements and build a corporate finance framework to suit your needs.

Debt Restructuring

Debt restructuring is defined as an event where a creditor grants a mutually agreed concession to a debtor who is in financial difficulty. It is useful for avoiding being classified as a ‘defaulter’. This process requires the assets or equity interests received or surrendered by the debtor to be measured at fair value. In such circumstances, the evaluators of these assets must be skilled to carry out the functions of the debt restructuring process.

The following are some points of negotiation for the debtor to be considered during debt restructuring:

  • Reducing the interest rates on loans
  • Extending the payment terms of loans
  • A debt-for-equity swap
  • Negotiate to write off a certain portion of interest or capital

Our financial advisors at Affility are equipped to discuss the above options with you as they bring years of financial experience and globally recognized qualifications to the table. We work with you to understand your company’s historical performance as well as the current trends and assumptions that might impact its future performance. Our experts will work collaboratively with your teams to model the most appropriate and feasible restructuring option that fits your business.

Business Modelling

A financial business model is the fiscal summary of a company’s performance that helps them to predict their future financial performance and make decisions in the short term. In other words, it helps a company see the short-term and long-term financial results of a decision in quantitative terms, taking into consideration the firm’s liquidity and working capital.

Business modelling represents a key facet of your company’s finance arm, and a good financial model will enable you to see the bigger picture and make strategic decisions based on the most recent data. However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to financial modelling because different industries and countries go through specific economic conditions, and have their own internal aims and characteristics, which should all be considered when developing the business model for an organization.

  • Understand the relationship between the business model and the financial element associated with it.
  • Simplify the financial elements to its most basic form.
  • Frame a comprehensive future forecast considering the historic performance and future strategies of the company.
  • Put the financial model through regression testing for sensitivity check and its response to different scenarios.
