Sectors and services

Specialists with broad reach

RJM advises industrial businesses on a full spectrum of M&A, sale and divestiture, capital structure, capital raise, and other strategic and financial matters.

M&A and strategic advisory

At RJM, our motivation is never just “to close deals.” Our mission is to solve client challenges to help them meet or exceed their goals.

While we can work with great speed when called for, it is the solidity of a transaction that is our inherent focus. When we have, with our client, identified a great fit, we work to instill great confidence in counterparties that the transaction with our client is clearly the wise path. This helps strengthen terms and surety of close for our clients.

We also focus on understanding and communicating associated risks with clarity and candor. In all forms of strategic advisory, we become true partners in conceiving and executing the best possible solutions.

Capital structure and capital markets

Many advisory firms have generic capital structure or capital‑raise experience or may have dabbled in the industrial sector⁠—⁠and in our view, that is not enough to provide the informed perspective needed by industrial businesses. Without a keen understanding of the key global commodity exposures and supply/demand imbalances that tend to drive industrial businesses, capital market advisory will have blind spots and incomplete risk or opportunity analysis.

At RJM, we have the deep industry knowledge that enables us to convey highly relevant, realistic, and therefore compelling information that inspires advantageous capital bids. We apply rigorous considerations for governance, risk pricing, and liquidity to position transactions for successful outcomes initially and over time.
