Capital Formation
Experience
Our founder, Darin Oliver, has nearly 3 decades of institutional sales, trading and banking experience. Darin was the founder of Castor Pollux Securities, LLC, a Boston based FINRA regulated broker-dealer that raised nearly $2B in private placements, including equity long/short, debt securities and private equity hedge funds. In addition he has been involved in middle range company deals from $25m- $250M. Darin has extensive experience in deal making and working with UHNW, HNW, family offices and other institutional investors. He has experience, putting together detailed due diligence, investors FAQs, sophisticated marketing materials and managing the deal making process between the buyer and the seller.
Gambling Industry
After 5 years of consolidation the gambling industry woke up the US legalizing sports betting on a State by State bases. While this was great news, it was unwelcome news to larger integrated operators who prefer economies of scale. An operation in New York might be wonderful, but one in Tennessee might not be too attractive. Smaller companies can operate on a lower cost base, but they often lack experience and technology.
So, while the US has provided some boosts to revenue, the integrated operators are running our of targets, and now they hope to sell themselves to larger US gambling groups – but it’s not going to plan.
We have a lot of new ideas to promote expansion opportunities into new reverent businesses . We are here to advise gambling companies on new strategic targets and new frontiers.
Crypto Industry
With decades of experience in M&A, we are seeing unprecedented opportunities in the Crypto industry for expansion among the larger exchanges. Although we are heavily promoting adding gambling, we believe that the exchange business is on the verge of a major shakeup. Not only will some exchanges operating in highly unregulated forms risk extinction from regulatory attacks, but currently there are just too many exchanges. Those exchanges avoiding KYC are stealing revenue from those that must do kYC. Many exchanges are very regional (very much like sports betting operations).
The result will be mergers, bankruptcies, and acquisitions . We are are researching new product lines to bolt onto the crypto exchanges who should be considering the need to diversify away from crypto and use their user bases more effectively.
We are here to advise you, contact us for more information.
