Huntington's Expertise
Major
transactions handled are summarised below (Huntington holds a dealers
licence from Australian Securities and Investments Commission):
Public Flotations
and Issues
Structured and implemented
seven public listings.
Stuctured and implemented
11 prospectus / due diligence processes for new issues or rights
issues.
Backdoor
Listings and Company Reconstruction's
Structured and implemented
four backdoor listings. Huntington specialises in forming or locating
clean public shells for clients.
Structured six share
buy-backs and capital returns, mostly for listed companies.
Raising Debt Capital
Over recent years Huntington has developed a niche in raising of higher risk debt capital which may not be obtainable from the trading bank sector. This is souced from:
Unsecured Notes which may be listed or unlisted
Hedge Funds which specialise in this form of term debt.
These facilities usually complement bank funding rather than replacing
it. We have completed three transactions since 2005..
Divestments and Acquisitions
Divestments
Four divestments
of companies and numerous other divestments of individual assets.
Acquisitions
Acquisition of Queensland
Stations Limited by the Coutts Group ($33 million).
Acquisition of Heritage
Tavern / Stadium Sportsbar complex in Rockhampton by a syndicate
of investors including Huntington.
Numerous other acquisition
transactions for individual assets.
Other Advisory
Advised two separate
Queensland-based agribusiness syndicates on financing of acquisitions
of companies at the forefront of genetic and animal breeding technology.
Assisted the Dick
David Group, the large Northern Territory-based BP Fuel and Road
Trains operator, with capital raising and expansion strategies.
Acted as chief executive
officer of Australia Food & Fibre Ltd for three years after its
corporatisation: established the company's core business, divested
non-core operations, cut corporate and operating costs by over $2
million per annum and with capital received from divestments (over
$40 million) returned capital to shareholders.
