Dextra Corporate Advisors is an independent advisory company specialized in providing advice on Corporate Finance and Corporate Strategy.
Dextra was founded in 2012 by a group of professionals with more than 70 years of combined experience in the corporate finance industry. The founding partners have spent their careers in leading multinational corporate and financial advisory firms, financial institutions and family offices.
Dextra Corporate advised us on the acquisition of one of our portfolio companies, intervening in the entire transaction process: from the identification of the opportunity to the final closing of the transaction, advising amongst others on the definition and structuring of the offer to be made, coordinating the Due Diligence process and advising in the final negotiation process. t has been great working with Dextra Corporate: the commitment of their team of professionals, their integration with our team and other advisers and the quality of their work were outstanding.
We engaged Dextra Corporate in 2023 for the sale of one of our subsidiaries as we were already familiar with the firm from another transaction they were involved in, where they demonstrated a great ability to execute a complex sale and purchase transaction. In the process of selling our subsidiary, they demonstrated great negotiation and process management skills which were key to successfully closing the sale and keeping the heat on between the various potential buyers. We would like to highlight their excellent integration and interaction with our team, their technical and financial knowledge and their negotiation skills.
I have worked with Dextra on projects in a variety of sectors. Their team has always demonstrated excellent analytical skills, business vision and results orientation. Their work capacity and commitment are also a valuable guarantee for the success of the projects.
During the first half of 2012, Dextra accompanied us in the restructuring process of the company. The scope of the collaboration included the analysis and diagnosis of the company's financial situation, the strategic planning of the operations to be refinanced, the preparation of the financial plan and the support and advice during the negotiations with the financial institutions. Stephan's strategic vision and the professionalism of his team are particularly noteworthy
Since 2007, we have worked with Dextra Corporate Advisors’ team on a number of occasions, both in the search for partners for investees, in financial restructurings and in investment and divestment processes. We have full confidence in the capabilities of their partners, highlighting their technical-financial skills as well as their negotiation and analytical abilities. Both Stephan and Iker are professionals who, in our opinion, bring rigour, pragmatism, realism and objectivity to their work, always with a view to achieving the best results for our company.
Dextra Corporate Advisors advised us on the divestment strategy for a portfolio of private equity funds. Their knowledge of the private equity market and their network of contacts were key to finding a satisfactory solution, both structurally and economically. Throughout the process, we appreciated Dextra's support and transparency both in the search for counterparties as well as during the negotiation phase.
