A company that we will henceforth call X, was planning to grow. To do so, they were thinking about entering into the stock market and obtain financing for its operations, based on a 5-year strategic plan. The usual assessment did not satisfy them as it did not consider certain strategic aspects that Grupo Paradell does integrate in its methodology. This methodology assesses aspects related to those that are usually assessed and the cross impacts of all of them on the scenarios for the following 5 years.
This highlighted the future value of the company's R&D&I developments in the FinTech sector and the technological risk assessment that made them safe from possible cyber-attacks, giving them access to supply multinationals in the banking sector with full guarantees, as well as their brand valuation and the map of support from the relevant actors at the institutional level.
Finally, the in-depth examination of the due diligence report provided all stakeholders with a more precise knowledge of the risks in sales channels, distributors, suppliers and business relationships, and potential conflicts of interest. No market driver had a negative impact on the expected results and the possible scenarios were the most favourable.
The counter-analysis based on all these other criteria allowed access to European institutional investors and hedge funds that value long-term sustainability criteria positively. The improved stock price attracted new institutional capital, increasing in a second phase the valuation of the company from a multiple of 4 to 10 on invested capital.
