Capitalization, Business Valuations and Fairness Opinions

Capitalization - Utilizing our deep relationships with traditional and alternative institutional investors, we efficiently raise or negotiate the placement of new capital at all levels of a company's capital structure. We analyze and craft the appropriate capital structure for a company and place the securities through privately marketed and negotiated transactions.

Business Valuations - We have appraised a broad range of businesses, worth from $500,000 to $200 million. Our staff conducts valuations for a variety of entities, including ongoing small and medium sized businesses and larger company divisions with the aim of divestiture.

Fairness Opinions - Cabrera's Global Investment Banking group supports boards of directors, investors, trustees, and other corporate and organizational leaders help perform their fiduciary responsibilities by providing such parties with unbiased opinions as to the financial fairness of pending transactions.

Strategic Advisory & Planning

Cabrera’s Global Banking division has developed a proprietary methodology to assist companies at any stage to conduct a thorough assessment of the current stance, it strengths and weaknesses as well as it’s threats and opportunities to identify strategies for a systematic growth and a very clear road map to increase its value. The approach of such methodology has been carefully designed to match the views of a potential investor considering such company as an investment opportunity. The result of such exercise is achieving an “institutional ready” stage, prior to taking the company to the financial market.
