Sell-side M&A advisory is the representation of an owner through a sale, recapitalization, or capital raise, from preparing the company for market through closing. Buy-side advisory represents the acquirer. Sell-side M&A is a core focus of our practice. Our senior bankers work alongside you from day one and lead the process through closing. We use our wide network of qualified buyers to create a competitive process and help maximize the value of your business.

Tampa (HQ), Nashville, and San Francisco. 

Not necessarily. It depends on your goals as an owner, the type of buyer, and the structure of the transaction. We discuss your preferred level of involvement from the beginning and use it to guide which buyers we approach. Typically, strategic buyers often purchase 100% of the business and may only require a short transition period. Financial buyers commonly acquire a majority stake and ask owners to retain equity and continue leading the business.

We use NDAs, staged disclosures, controlled data‑room access, and small, qualified buyer lists to minimize information leakage while maintaining competitive tension. 

Fees are primarily success‑based upon closing, with a modest retainer. Specifics depend on scope and complexity.  

We look at your business from several angles. Key measures often include revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). We also consider growth, margins, comparable companies, recent transactions, and buyer demand. Ultimately, the value depends on the market and what qualified buyers are willing to offer.

Begin with a confidential discussion to align on goals, readiness, and the best path (sale, recap, growth equity, or debt). We then prepare materials and run a targeted, competitive process. 

It describes a recapitalization in which an owner sells a majority stake while retaining a minority position. The first bite is cash at closing. The second occurs when the retained equity appreciates and is later sold.

There is no single right time to sell, but owners often benefit from beginning preparations a year or more before a formal process. Preparation can influence value more than market timing alone, and starting early gives owners more options. An initial conversation carries no obligation.

Potentially both, depending on your objectives. A strategic buyer is an operating company pursuing new capabilities, customers, or geographic reach. A financial buyer is a private equity firm, family office, or independent sponsor focused on investment return.

See the Careers page for current roles and internships. 

A formal process generally runs several months from launch to closing, with preparation beginning well in advance. Company readiness, sector dynamics, buyer type, and diligence complexity all affect the timeline.

We generally execute M&A transactions from ~$20 million to $500 million+ enterprise value and private capital raises from ~$10 million to $100 million+. 

No. We focus on growth equity and debt for established companies, not early‑stage venture capital. 

Private capital raises generally range from ~$10 million to $100 million+. 

Hyde Park Capital’s Sponsor Capital Solutions practice provides advisory and financing services for private equity sponsors, independent sponsors, institutional limited partners, and family offices seeking to address capital and liquidity needs. Hyde Park Capital advises clients on general partner-led (GP-led) secondaries, CVs, acquisition financing, and other debt and equity capital markets transactions.

A GP-led secondary is a transaction initiated by a private equity sponsor to access the secondary market in an effort to advance one or more strategic objectives. Examples of GP-led solutions include raising and structuring CVs, tender offers, strip sales and NAV-oriented liquidity solutions.

A CV is a new investment entity formed to acquire one or more portfolio companies from an existing private equity fund. A CV can provide limited partners the option to either receive liquidity for its pro rata interest in a portfolio company or remain invested in the portfolio company as the sponsor continues to manage the asset(s) in a separate vehicle to support the assets’ growth and preserve potential future upside.

Hyde Park Capital assists independent sponsors in raising capital for acquisitions and other strategic needs. Our capabilities include equity syndication as well as the placement of debt preferred equity, recapitalization capital and structured growth capital.

A NAV loan (Net Asset Value Loan) is a form of fund level financing where a private equity fund borrows against the value of its underlying portfolio. It enables sponsors to raise non-dilutive capital to advance certain strategic objectives.

A fairness opinion is an independent professional assessment of whether a transaction’s consideration is fair from a financial point of view. Boards and special committees obtain them for M&A, buybacks, go‑privates, and similar deals. 

Yes. We provide fairness opinions and valuations to both public and private companies and advise fiduciaries on options and alternatives. We can also run go‑shop processes when appropriate. 

Infrastructure finance primarily focused on data centers, fiber infrastructure, generation equipment, power plants, waste-to-fuels and renewable energy sectors. Renewable technologies include solar, wind, biomass and geothermal.

The process starts by understanding the client, its business and specific capital requirement. Structured-finance solutions are tailored to meet and achieve specific requirements on a case by case basis. The purpose of advisory is to structure and position the transaction in a manner that attracts the most attractive financing terms available while fully meeting the client’s requirements. We target specific classes of institutional investors most appropriate for the project. The process involves structuring and advisory, modeling support, transaction summary decks, data room management, comprehensive investor outreach, term sheet review and closing support. We facilitate negotiations with qualified investors to achieve pricing and terms that maximize value to the client.
