Perhaps you are looking for financing to continue to grow. Or you want to start a new project that needs capital. However, a capital increase or refinancing is a process that is best approached systematically. In recent years, we have helped several entrepreneurs with capital increases and refinancing. We would like to summarize our approach for you.      <\/p>\n<h3>1. Scope<\/h3>\n<p> In a first phase, we get to know the company thoroughly: its organization, sector, company history, company size&#8230;. We also sound out the reasons for raising new capital: expansion, acquisition, RD, working capital&#8230;.  <\/p>\n<h3>2. Situation analysis<\/h3>\n<p> We analyze the current status of the company. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Financial status: what do the balance sheet, cash flows and profitability look like before the capital increase?<\/li>\n<li>Challenges: what are the challenges facing the company? Are there insufficient internal funds? What are the risks of the current debt load?  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>3. Choices for capital raising<\/h3>\n<p> We look at the different ways to implement a capital increase. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What are the financing options: stock issue, bond issue, bank loans, venture capital&#8230;<\/li>\n<li>What are the advantages and disadvantages of each financing option? We systematically map everything: costs, loss of control, risks, and impact on the balance sheet. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>4. Decision Process<\/h3>\n<p> We are trying to gain insight into the decision-making process. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Criteria: what are the most important factors influencing the decision? Consider the cost of capital, speed of availability, or possible strategic partner chips. <\/li>\n<li>Stakeholders: who are the key decision makers? We inform everyone and ask for feedback (e.g. management, shareholders, financial advisors) <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>5. Implementation<\/h3>\n<p>  We guide the entire capital raising process, from negotiation to transaction.<br \/>\nThis includes:   <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Communication: the capital increase will be communicated to the stakeholders: the investors, employees and the market.<\/li>\n<li>Removing obstacles: Obstacles do come up in every funding round.<br \/>\nWhen that happens, we focus extra on what threatens to get stuck.<br \/>\nIt is important to foresee and expect those obstacles.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>6. Results<\/h3>\n<p>  We look at the short- and long-term impact of the capital increase.  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Financial impact: we photograph the direct impact of the capital increase on the balance sheet and cash flow at the time of the transaction.<\/li>\n<li>Strategic impact: we are writing a new strategic plan taking into account the capital increase.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There may be several reasons to raise new capital as a business.
