Steve Tate, Chairman and CEO, Check Safety First

I highly recommend the services of BHP Corporate Finance. A business owner would be crazy not to use their services to lead a sales process; their involvement is completely self-financing and allows the people who built the business to focus on running the company throughout the process.

The sale of our business to a large listed acquiror was a complex and significant transaction throughout which BHP’s advice and support was invaluable. BHP oversaw a global marketing process which resulted in us securing a highly successful outcome for both the shareholders and the company and were with us every step of the way. I am clear that we wouldn’t have been able to deliver the result that we did without the help of Andy, Tim and the team at BHP, for which we are very grateful.

BHP are professionals but with the personal touch where required, always available for advice and discussion surrounding possible opportunities.

I have had the privilege to work with BHP for many years who have advised and helped me through an MBO, subsequent sale of the business and investment opportunities

BHP are extremely knowledgeable and experienced in their field. They have a great insight and flair for grasping business concept, understanding key financial drivers and delivering creative and impressive results for their clients

They definitely ‘went the extra-mile’ and I could not recommend them more highly

I must say a big ‘thank you’ to the team at BHP Corporate Finance who worked tirelessly to ensure the deal progressed smoothly and happened on time. During an often complicated and time-consuming process they definitely ‘went the extra-mile’ and I could not recommend them more highly

Chris Barton , Co-founder, The Coaching Manual

We are very grateful to BHP for their support throughout the fundraising process.

Having helped us prepare the business for investment, BHP introduced us to Maven who instantly shared our enthusiasm for the TCM platform and its potential. BHP then assisted us through what was a complex fundraising process, were available when we needed them and worked through a number of complex commercial issues to get the deal done. We are very grateful to BHP for their support throughout the fundraising process.

Andrew Pearce, Owner, Whirlowdale

The whole BHP Corporate Finance team were superb

Having been involved with Whirlowdale since the mid-1980s, realising our investment was always going to be a hugely emotional process for myself and the family. The whole BHP Corporate Finance team were superb, not only from a deal making, financial and tax point of view but they were on hand every step of the way providing the leadership, guidance, confidence and reassuring hand that were invaluable throughout the process. I have in fact worked with them on a variety of transactions in the past but I was still taken aback by how much they invest in making sure they get the right result for their client. I would not hesitate to recommend them in the strongest terms.

Gareth Frankland, Owner and CEO, ACDC

BHP were outstanding throughout – they made the deal happen in many ways – more than happy to recommend them.

BHP advised me on the sale of 60% of my company acdc to Austrian Listed International lighting corporation Zumtobel Group. It was a complicated transaction as it involved handling 4 other key stakeholders, with their own individual goals, but BHP handled matters extremely professionally. During initial meetings with the buyer, BHP had a knack of being able to make the potentially complicated relatively simple, and their lead role throughout negotiations was absolutely fundamental to the transaction. Throughout the process BHP kept the deal moving in the right direction, overcoming several major obstacles, providing me with excellent advice and support throughout the process.
