Corporate Finance

We help our clients access global investors to support their growth, liquidity, or exit needs.

We are experts at structuring and facilitating strategic M&A transactions in various sectors for both public and private companies.  

We structure and execute transactions

• Founded in New York, Hussar & Co. applies US market expertise with its approach to its European client base.
• We create transactions in a time and cost-effective manner, delivering value to the clients we serve. 
• Transactions can represent the sale of a significant asset, the whole company or a material purchase or merger of two entities.

We advise on both “sell-side” and “buy-side” mandates

• On the “sell-side” we help in the disposal of individual assets (asset deals) or corporations (i.e. shares of public and private companies). 
• On the “buy-side” we help clients seek out, assess and filter opportunities, and facilitate dialogue with sellers to reach favorable conditions for a closing.

We invest our own capital

• We generally like to work with clients that we also view as a potential investment target for our own capital or the capital we represent. 
• Hussar & Co. is compiling an investment memorandum for its co-investors outlining opportunities to acquire small and medium sized enterprises in Hungary where owners either want to fully exit or allow an investment team to enter into the equity ownership through a management buy-in. 

Raising capital is one of our core advisory competencies. This can be done to fund a partial liquidity event for a firm's shareholders and/or to provide needed seed, acquisition, growth or working capital.  

Mid Cap: Public & Private

• We provide our clients access to our network of private equity investors, hedge funds, venture capitalists, asset managers, and high net worth individuals.
• We conduct independent research and analysis for our clients and use these insights to present our investment strategies to the broader capital markets.
• Using knowledge of our core regions (DACH & CEE) we source opportunistic deals and off-market transactions. These transactions could relate to raising capital for real estate development and acquisition to financing or re-financing equity and debt solutions for corporate clients.

Early Stage Ventures & Micro Cap

• We advise promising small businesses, whether an exciting tech startup or an established niche local business.
• We provide our clients access to our broad network including venture capitalists, innovation funds, asset managers, and high net worth individuals.
• We conduct independent research and analysis for our clients to better understand their company's market viability, appeal to investors, and to inform an investment strategy.
• We work with our clients to market the investment strategy to potential investors, sharpening their messaging and creating tailor-made marketing materials to maximize the appeal to investors.

Hussar & Co.'s management has decades of experience in our core regions (DACH & CEE), allowing us to provide our clients with access to unique, high-quality, off-market acquisition opportunities.

• We focus on the "buy-side," finding rare opportunities for our clients in asset classes such as residential, office, retail, hotel, and industrial.  
• Hussar & Co. has advised some of the largest real estate focused investment firms in the world.  We are experts at finding unique properties that are  suited to our clients' investment needs.
• We also advise on the "sell-side," leveraging our high-level relationships with these firms to provide our clients access to high-quality investors.

We seek situations where we can add value by investing, either as a sponsor in a fund-raising transaction or as a lead investor in an acquisition. We bring in direct co-investors, passive or active, in addition to offering:

• strategic advisory services to clients; and  
• ongoing investment or asset management to investors.  

Hussar & Co. has advised and currently serves some of the largest global private equity funds. These buyers generally require majority stakes in assets or businesses they acquire and often seek exits within a three to five-year time frame. At times, we are asked by our investors to develop detailed business plans around specific investments they are considering.
