The Dinosaur Group of Companies offers corporate financing solutions to growth companies. Dinosaur Securities is a recognized leader in providing corporate financial advisory services including private placements, valuations, merger and acquisitions advice and institutional research services.
Dinosaur's mission is to help companies build shareholder value by providing them with professional financing solutions, strategic acquisition expertise and institutional research services. Dinosaur's team of experienced investments professionals is dedicated to the success of our clients which we achieve through delivering on financial commitments.
Dinosaur arranges debt and equity capital to finance a broad range of requirements including corporate expansion, acquisitions, trade and going private transactions. Over many years, Dinosaur has developed a close relationship with a wide array of financing sources.. These relationships allow Dinosaur to structure a flexible financial instrument consistent with market conditions and management's objectives. Of particular interest to both U.S. and international issuers is our ability to help them access capital from a range of international sources.
Typical transactions might involve companies looking for $5 million to $100 Million funding for up to five years. We have arranged financing based upon future flow of trade receivables, inventory, and/or export contracts in a wide range of products such as beef, poultry, leather, construction materials, commodities and semi-commodities.
Dinosaur sponsors "going private" transactions in partnership with management when the public market valuation is well below the Company's longer term value. Dinosaur will arrange the equity and debt financing and advise on the process of going private.
Dinosaur assists its clients in identifying and analyzing attractive acquisition candidates, determining the appropriate purchase price and negotiating the transaction documents. A Company may wish to divest a subsidiary that may represent greater value upon divestiture to a third party than it does to the Company.
Dinosaur provides company valuations and fairness opinions that may be required in conjunction with raising capital and acquisitions. Various methodologies are utilized for a valuation, including market valuation, break-up valuation and discounted cash flow analysis.
Dinosaur is experienced in performing research that uncovers investment opportunities. Our Director of Research communicates regularly with portfolio money managers regarding companies that Dinosaur believes are attractive investments.
