Cube Capital advises middle market technology companies and wholesale investors on investment banking transactions. We act for them when they’re undergoing mergers, acquisitions, divestments, capital raisings and listings on the ASX.

What We Do

Capital Raising and Initial Public Offerings (IPOs)

Few companies become market leaders by simply growing organically. The more successful a business becomes, the more capital it will need to expand. It is inevitable with big and small companies alike, including Facebook, Google and Apple that have required external capital at various stages of their business, beyond what their founders and early investors could provide.

Cube Capital can address your capital raising needs through the private placement of shares to high net worth investors and private equity funds. If your business is ready for the next level of growth, we can help you explore an Initial Public Offering via a prospectus.

At Cube Capital, we provide the skills and expertise to help you with the strategic analysis and management of capital raising through private or public placements and IPOs. We have global access to sources of capital and an extensive network of legal, audit and accounting professionals to help execute a capital raising or an IPO.

Corporate Advisory Services

The starting point for M&A transactions are a result of a long-term strategic intent; developed years ahead of commencing a transaction. In many cases, M&A initiatives are for opportunistic reasons and for reasons external to the business; often outside the control of shareholders and directors. The ideal situation to start these transactions is when the directors of the company call in investment banking advisors whom they already have a relationship with—an investment bank that understands your business and its culture. We understand these dynamics. At Cube Capital, we build relationships with clients like you, sometimes years ahead of commencing a specific transaction. During the relationship we might engage with you on specific small strategic assignments or provide general corporate advice on an ad-hoc basis. Cube Capital’s involvement and the relationship between us provide you access to market intelligence and exposure to M&A activities in your industry sector.

How We Help

Our Passion and Alignment with Your Thinking

Managing investment banking transactions is precision work. We succeed because we are passionate and dedicated about what we do. Despite our well-developed standards and successful methodologies, each transaction is unique. No deal is the same and we can work on either side of a transaction whether it is the buy-side or sell-side.

When you engage us, we commit everything. In fact, our interests are aligned with our clients’ interests. More than 70% of our income is based on successfully completing transactions for you and other clients.

You Engage Us, We Manage It

Planning and executing investment banking transactions can be fraught with stress and frustration. Even when our client is “hands off”, they need to remain focused on running their business and have little time to be also driving the deal with us.

This is particularly so in TMT, Healthcare and Life Sciences where “things move fast”. Our tenacity, depth of industry knowledge and information networks cannot be easily replicated. This is what underlies our promise of superior service for you.

Information Marketplace

Cube Capital operates in fast-moving sectors where some transactions might take a few weeks to materialise. You often read how Facebook, Google or Apple acquire companies quickly. We are agile, fast moving and maintain active participation in the industries in which we specialise in. We keep up with new trends and developments and track key influencers and decision makers.

Success in such a dynamic environment calls for more than just industry knowledge and expertise.

Our winning edge is that we operate an Information Marketplace. We have long standing relationships and extensive networks of contacts and investors that help us monitor the pulse of these vibrant sectors in Australia and overseas. This gives Cube Capital a unique advantage in planning and executing investment banking transactions for our clients.

Ethical Engagements

Successful completion of an acquisition, divestment, capital raising or IPO calls for more than industry expertise and knowledge in transaction execution. We succeed with transactions as our work is carried out within a framework of ethical and confidential conduct.

When you engage Cube Capital on an assignment, we go beyond merely carrying out the work—we stake our reputation on it. With every client engagement we manage, there are counterparties that must trust us to perform our side of the work ethically and confidentially. Both sides of a transaction rely on much more than written and signed agreements for successful deal conclusion.

Confidentiality Assured

When it comes to confidentiality, there is more to it than signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Almost everything at Cube Capital is confidential and not-for-disclosure. Successful deals are always the ones with few, if any, leaks.

We do not take breaks in trust or confidentiality lightly.

We succeed in executing transactions because counterparties trust us and expect us to keep promises to which we are not legally bound. We have built our reputation upon this. People use us because they trust us and it is something we do not break.

We Drive a Hard Bargain

When we negotiate a transaction on your behalf, we drive a hard bargain — it is one of our trademarks. In negotiating a tough deal for your benefit we remain completely above board —another of our trademarks. We achieve more, but in an outcome that is a definite win-win situation. It is very rarely that a successful deal is a result of a win-lose agreement.
