Bench Capital+ Advisory is an M&A and corporate finance advisory firm dedicated to helping small and mid-sized businesses maximize their valuation at exit.
For high-growth companies, we help founders and CEOs secure the capital they need to fund their business's growth and expansion.
M&A Advisory Services
Our expertise covers M&A processes, deal structuring, valuation, negotiation, due diligence, and closing, ensuring our clients avoid common pitfalls and achieve objectives. With an established global network that includes strategic buyers, private equity firms, family offices, and institutional investors, we connect our clients with qualified buyers.
Sell Side
Finding the perfect buyer can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. We identify ideal buyers and negotiate favorable terms on our clients' behalf so they can secure an optimal deal structure and maximize the value of their business. We advise our clients to make sure that their price expectation is within what the market will tolerate. We provide advice on publicly traded comparables and precedent transactions in a similar market.
Buy Side
Private Equity Firms who are looking for acquisition targets, whether a platform or Add-On, we are available to work on a referral basis for clients in our pipeline that are not actively on the market but willing to entertain a good offer from a PE firm.
Corporate Development
Middle-market companies often lack dedicated corporate development teams to execute acquisitions on their behalf. Our Advisors assist them in identifying and acquiring strategic targets that align precisely with their growth objectives.
Management Buy-Out
We help management teams who wish to acquire the business they work for from its current owner. In most situations, their own funds may not be sufficient. We not only assist them in structuring the buy out deal with the current owner, we also help them secure external financing to acquire the company.
Corporate Finance and Debt Advisory
We help businesses who are seeking traditional bank loans, capital project financing, mezzanine lending and private equity to achieve their strategic and growth objectives either through organic expansion or acquisitions.
What We Do
Sourcing and facilitating negotiations with multiple sources of funding within our network
Determination of Credit and Financing Requirements
Review of Financial Projections and Business Plan
Drafting of Credit Application and Financing Proposal
Comprehensive financial statements analysis including calculation of financial ratios, identification of risk factors and credit risk mitigation

Assistance in dealing with banks during challenging situations, including drafting letters requesting to restructure credit, response to threats by bank and other lenders to exercise remedies, special loans or de-market situations.
Who We Work With
We serve small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in a wide range of industry sectors. Most of our clients have revenues anywhere between $1 and $100 million annually and are in need of some form of funding ranging between $1 million and $50 million or more. On a very selective basis, we assist in funding large capital projects with $100 million + capital requirements.
In general, we cater to the following business needs:
Businesses in need of working capital or trade financing
Businesses looking to finance equipment purchase or leasehold improvements
Companies interested in constructing, buying or refinancing an owner-occupied property
Business owners transitioning to the next generation
Management interested in buying shares in their company
New owners interested in paying down VTB loans from previous owners
Business owners interested in taking out equity
Companies that are highly leveraged but that have exceptional cash flow and have high growth potential.
