Consumer

SafeRock advised on the go-private sale of a public company valued at $8.7 billion at a +39% premium to market cap. Separately, we helped an international omni-channel company grow 19.6% from $2.2 billion to $2.6 billion. SafeRock has experience working with Private Equity firms as well. For example, we established a global network spanning 12 countries and a shared services platform for the portfolio company of a +$500 billion private-equity firm, helping it grow from $2.6 billion to $12.4 billion.

Value Creation

For shareholder value creation, we developed the SRV™ Index – an Artificial Intelligence solution that reduces shareholder risk and attracts long-term capital. With this, for example, we guided a $30+ billion European company to improve valuation. The outcomes of greatest interest to management were: 1) a more supportive and engaged shareholder mix; 2) increased market cap; and 3) new investment investors. This covered a unique, detailed analysis of 1,500+ investment firms that led to new investors being introduced to the European firm who strengthened it’s position and drove market value.

We apply advanced data science (AI and ML) with predictive analytics to deliver immediate results. What makes SafeRock unique is our deep operational knowledge of the sectors we focus on. We optimized inventory and eliminated out-of-stock with accurate trade-zone demand forecasts and generated best-in-class loyalty, increased marketing ROI and recaptured lost sales in Energy markets. For an easy recap, here are selected Industry projects.
