Gordian Group believes that distressed M & A activities are distinct from conventional M & A transactions. A distressed seller is essentially a vulnerable seller; without experienced advice, a distressed seller will frequently find itself disadvantaged with prospective buyers and unable to close at the promised price.
Distressed M & A requires a special skill set to (i) develop competitive buyer interest and (ii) hold the transaction together, at a given price level, through closing. Gordian Group excels in combining its talents to create and maintain robust competition which is the best way to maximize value for a seller.
Two Gordian partners have authored a comprehensive chapter in a major bankruptcy textbook entitled "The Role of the Investment Banker" which highlights Gordian Group's expertise in the distressed M & A arena.
