Financing and Capital Raising
Raintree Corporate Finance has extensive experience raising capital for private companies across North America. We have raised all forms of capital across both equity and debt and across all stages of a company’s life cycle.
Equity – Raintree’s equity network includes retail investors, high-net worth individuals, family offices, financial institutions and private equity funds.
Additionally, our affiliate company, Raintree Financial Solutions (“RFS”), is an exempt market dealer (“EMD”) with approximately 50 registered Dealing Representatives registered in the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Québec.
Since 2010, Raintree Corporate Finance, in conjunction with Raintree Financial Solutions, has placed over $1 billion into private companies and has referred over $550 million to Portfolio Managers directly and through our Dealing Representatives.
Debt – Raintree holds extensive relationships with numerous lending sources, including private investors, family offices, and a diverse set of lending institutions across North America. Based on a company’s needs, we determine the most appropriate form of debt, such as senior debt, subordinated debt, mezzanine debt and/or convertible debt.
Selling a Business
Working collaboratively with business owners who are looking to sell their company, we develop a customized sales process that meets our clients’ goals and objectives.
We provide guidance throughout the entire process, from identifying and engaging buyers (strategic or financial) to structuring and negotiating terms to finalizing the sale.
Our process includes conducting a targeted search that meets our client’s acquisition criteria. Leveraging our extensive relationships and expertise, we generate leads for both on-market and proprietary acquisition opportunities. Beyond sourcing targets, we partner and assist our clients with evaluating, structuring, negotiating, and financing to close an acquisition.
