Investment Banking Services


M&A

Mergers and acquisitions are pivotal moments that can transform the trajectory of your business. At Keene Advisors, we deliver precision execution in M&A, corporate sales, and divestitures, ensuring that every transaction enhances long-term growth and shareholder value. With more than $45 billion in combined M&A advisory and capital raising experience, our team brings the insight, negotiation expertise, and industry knowledge needed to guide you through complex transactions and achieve a successful outcome.

Leveraged Buyouts (LBO)

Selling to a private equity firm can be both rewarding and complex. Private equity investors evaluate hundreds of businesses each year—success depends on standing out and securing the right partner. Keene Advisors helps business owners navigate every stage of the LBO process, from identifying prospective firms and running a competitive process to achieving a strong valuation, negotiating deal terms, and structuring compensation agreements. Our expertise ensures you approach private equity buyers on equal footing.

Capital Raising

As your company grows, opportunities often outpace financial resources. Whether pursuing growth capital, venture funding, private equity investment, or debt financing, we simplify the capital-raising journey. Our advisors leverage extensive networks of venture capital firms, private equity groups, banks, and alternative lenders to connect you with the right capital partners. From evaluating financing structures to negotiating terms, we help you unlock the resources to fuel your company’s future.

Restructuring

In today’s fast-changing markets, unexpected challenges are inevitable. Whether you’re facing lender disputes, market disruption, or competitive pressures from new technologies, our team provides strategic reorganization and restructuring guidance to protect and reposition your business. With technical expertise and real-world transaction experience, Keene Advisors helps leaders stabilize operations, restructure balance sheets, and build strategies that restore confidence and position companies for long-term success.

Bank & Lender Negotiations

Access to the right debt financing can be critical for growth and stability. Keene Advisors works with both existing and new lenders to refinance, restructure, or expand credit facilities. Our team guides you through the process of evaluating debt options, negotiating favorable terms, and securing the financing structure best suited to your business goals.

Intial Public Offering Advisory

An IPO is a powerful tool to create liquidity for shareholders and access capital for growth and deleveraging. Our team is your guide through the IPO process, helping you understand the current market, the requirements of being a public company, how best to position your company in the market, and how to assemble the right underwriters and advisors for your company.
