Mergers and Acquisitions
From complex transactions to serving as an outsourced corporate development resource, we deliver independent advice that protects, grows, and unlocks long-term value.
We advise organizations navigating complex transitions and unique circumstances with clear, conflict-free guidance.
Outsourced Corporate Development
Experienced: Senior professionals with more than 45 years of experience with prominent global investment banks and Fortune 500 corporations.
Trusted: We focus on delivering economic value to our clients. Our unique fee structure insures goals are aligned with our clients and not dependent on the close of a value-reducing transaction.
Effective: We listen to our clients. We pay particular attention to the process and recognize that understanding and working well with people is a key ingredient for success.
Innovative: We work with the client to facilitate the best structure. We draw on our unique blend of skills and experience to yield powerful results.
Accountable: Larger firms often hand off responsibilities to less senior professionals and use it as a training ground. Conversely, we are intimately involved every step of the way.
Full service on both sell-side and buy-side transactions
Whether planning on a carefully staged exit strategy or responding to an unsolicited inquiry, the experienced M&A professionals of FCA Advisors can assist senior management and owners with evaluating and executing a strategy to maximize shareholder value.
Understanding the M&A Process
Having successfully managed hundreds of transactions, we bring a deep, hands-on understanding of every stage of the M&A process. Ultimately, it’s the strength and precision of the process—not luck—that determines the outcome. Our disciplined approach and mastery of deal execution are what truly set us apart.
