The Handbook of Financing Growth: Strategies, Capital Structure, and M&A Transactions, 2nd Edition
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Sep 2009, Pages: 645
This is a complete handbook, updated in full so readers can understand and apply the basics of corporate finance to middle market growth companies. Marks et al provide tools to analyze and determine the appropriate capital structure and also provide detailed discussion of the many funding instruments and the terms of each. Funding mechanisms and sources are also reviewed, as well as the pros and cons of each type. New material includes: a more detailed discussion of recapitalizations and recap strategies; a section on international issues/cases; new case studies (including a hedge fund, an early stage sector-focused business, an international case, a full buyout case, and a partial buyout case); the impact/changes of private equity on capital markets the past few years; and discussions regarding cleantech and alternative energy; as well as an update to the charts throughout and the directory section.
Praise for The handbook of Financing Growth
'Once again, Kenneth Marks and company have hit the mark with a comprehensive analysis of corporate and commercial finance, which is both readable and up-to-date. This book is a must for any entrepreneur, middle-market company CFO, or graduate student looking for a thorough presentation of real world financial solutions. I highly recommend it.'
—Barry D. Yelton, Senior Vice President and Region Manager, Federal National Payables, Inc.
'This is a valuable tool to anyone raising capital. I've seen firsthand how the current environment is filled with dead ends for those seeking to grow their business. Having a blueprint for the process will save time and resources; two things any growth company can ill afford to spend. By looking at the process and explaining the various components of how capital forms, the authors provide necessary insight toward a productive effort. Anyone considering a capital raise should embark on that journey with this resource.'
—Christopher Gaertner, Head of Technology Investment Banking, Managing Director, Merrill Lynch
'All principals involved in financing their growth should keep a copy of this book handy and refer to it frequently for guidance. It provides clear guidelines and case studies that can be used by any of the 27 million firms in the U.S. that want to grow.'
—James F. Smith, PhD, Chief Economist, Parsec Financial Management
'Ken Marks and team have done a great service here to top management of middle-market companies, their advisors, as well as the investment community in understanding growth financing. This book is a perfect combination of being comprehensive (the glossary alone contains over 650 terms) yet very understandable. Too bad that more books written on this subject aren't written the way this one is.'
—Bob Grabill, President and CEO, Chief Executive Network
'I am enthusiastic about this Second Edition of The Handbook of Financing Growth. The authors have updated chapters throughout and introduced a very useful, 'new project leadership' tool in Chapter 2. I can't imagine a more complete business financing guide. And, because of the tremendous amount of business wisdom contained herein, this book is valuable for its general business planning guidance alone. Highly recommended; a copy belongs in every entrepreneur's library!'
—Peter Pflasterer, entrepreneur and founder, JPS Communications, Inc.
'Considering the many financing challenges in the midst of our global recession, as a leading trade association for M&A professionals, we believe the new edition of The Handbook of Financing Growth is essential reading for any business owner, advisor, or investor. This ambitious sharing of 'hands on' experiences will surely prove to be very rewarding for any decision maker in the private capital marketplace today!'
—Michael R. Nall, CPA, CM & AA, and founder, Alliance of M&A Advisors
'The Handbook of Financing Growth, Second Edition remains the most important book on financing to be published in far more than a decade. If there is a way to do a business finance deal, it is covered in this book. Not only does the book explain how to do most all types of financing, it tells you why some companies succeed while others fail. The book is a true reference book that you can turn to when you need an answer, or when you need inspiration.'
—Marilyn J. Holt, Founder of Holt Capital,
