Assisting early stage and growing enterprises to achieve their potential

de_tomasoTransition Capital's purpose is to help our clients successfully take their business to the next level of development, meeting their goals and aspirations. We do this through assisting with raising expansion capital and by providing management advice and assistance.


We facilitate private investment by guiding owners through an effective and regulatory compliant process designed to ensure that the business is attractive to investors and is presented positively.

Most business growth prospects involve a window of opportunity where quantum growth can be achieved. This generally requires a significant injection of cash not available through debt or cash flow. Our services help the business to raise the capital needed.

Access to private investment funds has always been difficult for unlisted companies, due in part to restrictive provisions of the Corporations Act (for example, making public offers is strictly prohibited). The penalties and consequences of breaching these provisions are severe and they are enforced.

To be successful in raising capital, a business needs to meet several criteria, including:

  • significant commercial growth potential - the ability to produce profits and/or capital gains;
  • a unique solution - a product, technology or business model based that offers sustainable advantage;
  • a strong management team that investors will believe can do the job required;
  • a realistic valuation that is equitable and rewards all prties for the risks they are taking;
  • the right company structure and shareholder protections;
  • a planned exit or liquidity event.
  • All of these need to be in place before a capital raising program can be considered. The program then needs to be professionally managed and presented to investors appropriately, or it will fail (and may breach legislative prohibitions).

    We provide the professionalism and expertise to ensure that a capital raising program has the optimum chance of success and will at all times remain fully compliant.

    Transition Capital is a registered Business Matching & Introduction Service which allows certain exemptions from the fund raising provisions of the Act. As an Accredited Sponsor of the Australian Small Scale Offerings Board (ASSOB) www.assob.com.au we use its capital raising methodologies, compliance templates and administrative support where appropriate.

    Dependant on the business opportunity, we may alternatively offer a Sophisticated Investors only capital raising program.

    Our services go beyond capital raising, as we also assist owners and senior management to guide their company though its transition from a smaller entity to the larger, more complex one it will become as it matures. We offer a regular mentoring service and an independent perspective on issues as they arise, or on an on-going basis to guide the owner through a particular project or set of issues.

     

    We assist with the development strategic plans, the recruitment of suitably qualified senior management or to meet general staffing needs. We will revise and adapt financial and reporting systems and controls and offer general business advice as required.

    Where acquisitions offer strategic advantage, we assist in the identification, valuation and negotiations with potential targets. Conversely we help in planning for and executing strategic trade sales when a planned exit point is reached.
