Our services
Connected advice for critical financial decisions.
Valuation affects fundraising. Funding terms shape ownership and control. Capital structure influences future growth. Strategic decisions may ultimately lead to an acquisition, exit or spin-off.
Arc Axiom connects these decisions through six complementary corporate finance and transaction advisory services.
Valuation
For fundraising, investment decisions and transactions
The challenge
Valuing a startup or scaleup is rarely straightforward. Limited historical data, rapidly changing markets and uncertain growth assumptions can produce very different views of value. Founders need a credible basis for fundraising or a potential transaction, while investors need to understand whether a proposed deal offers an appropriate balance of return and risk.
How Arc Axiom helps
Arc Axiom develops robust, decision-focused valuations using financial modelling, market benchmarks, scenario analysis and appropriate valuation methodologies. The analysis helps founders, shareholders and investors understand the key value drivers, test critical assumptions and approach negotiations with a well-supported view of value.
Fundraising advisory
Preparation and structure for a credible investment case
The challenge
Successful fundraising requires more than an ambitious growth story. A company must determine how much capital it needs, when to raise it, which funding structure is appropriate and how different terms could affect dilution, ownership and future financing rounds. Weak financial preparation can undermine investor confidence and delay the process.
How Arc Axiom helps
Arc Axiom supports fundraising strategy and preparation, including capital-needs analysis, financial modelling, valuation, scenario analysis, investor materials and assessment of proposed funding terms. Drawing on extensive cross-border fundraising experience, Arc Axiom helps management teams present a coherent investment case and prepare for investor review and due diligence.
Capital structure
Funding choices aligned with long-term objectives
The challenge
The choice between equity, debt, convertible instruments and other forms of capital can have lasting consequences. A poorly structured financing may create unnecessary dilution, repayment pressure, governance constraints or difficulties in future fundraising rounds.
How Arc Axiom helps
Arc Axiom evaluates alternative funding structures and their effects on ownership, control, cash flow, risk and future financing flexibility. By modelling different instruments and scenarios, Arc Axiom helps founders and shareholders select a capital structure aligned with the company’s growth plans and long-term objectives.
M&A and spin-offs
Financial advice for acquisitions, exits and separations
The challenge
An acquisition, sale or spin-off can create significant value—but only when the strategic rationale, valuation and transaction structure are sound. These transactions require careful assessment of financial implications, risks, synergies, separation costs and the interests of different stakeholders.
How Arc Axiom helps
Arc Axiom supports acquisitions, exits, divestments and spin-offs through valuation, financial analysis, transaction modelling, deal-structure assessment and financial preparation. Arc Axiom helps founders, shareholders and investors evaluate transaction alternatives, understand their economic consequences and make informed decisions throughout the process.
Strategic finance
Connecting growth and capital allocation with value creation
The challenge
As companies grow, financial decisions become increasingly interconnected. Management teams must decide where to allocate capital, how quickly to grow, which initiatives create value and how to balance expansion with profitability and financial resilience.
How Arc Axiom helps
Arc Axiom translates business strategy into financial analysis and actionable decisions. Through integrated financial models, scenario planning, capital-allocation analysis and identification of key value drivers, Arc Axiom helps founders and management teams evaluate strategic alternatives and focus resources on sustainable value creation.
Exit strategy
Planning the right route to a full or partial exit
The challenge
At some point, founders and investors may decide that the business needs a clear exit plan. The right route may be an IPO, a strategic sale, a secondary share sale, a management buyout or another form of full or partial exit. Each path has different implications for valuation, timing, ownership, control and future participation.
How Arc Axiom helps
Arc Axiom helps founders, shareholders and investors define their exit objectives, compare available routes and prepare a financially grounded exit plan. This includes valuation, scenario analysis, assessment of full and partial exit structures, financial readiness and evaluation of the expected outcomes under different exit routes.
