WHAT WE DO

n order to get the highest recoveries for our clients, Onyx utilizes customized disposition strategies and multi-channel formats ranging from immediate liquidity through outright asset purchase, private treaty / negotiated orderly sales, supply chain redirection, on-site and web-based public auctions, to monetization through discrete channels.

Financial distress arises from a variety of events, including overleverage, economic headwinds, liquidity issues and other challenges. The Onyx team works with distressed situations, both in-court and out of court, to achieve the highest risk adjusted returns for our clients and their clients. In doing so, Onyx executes efficient and strategic sale processes utilizing creative sale structures and innovative strategies that attract bidders and/or credible stalking horse interest by leveraging our vast database of strategic and financial buyers.

Whether involving a single asset class, a global supply chain inventory or an array of international manufacturing facilities, our goal in every transaction is to maximize value and meet our client’s diverse needs. We utilize customized disposition strategies and multi-channel formats ranging from immediate liquidity through outright asset purchase, private treaty / negotiated orderly sales, supply chain redirection, on-site and web-based public auctions, to monetization through discrete channels thereby protecting our client’s intellectual properties and existing channels.

To help provide immediate liquidity and critical time for more strategic decisions, Onyx has the ability to deploy significant capital for a single transaction, pre-fund disposition activities, an outright multi-asset purchase across a broad range of asset classes or provide DIP financing. This ability allows us to work flexibly with our clients as both a strategic and financial partner.

Whether on a stand-alone basis or as a component of a multi-faceted disposition strategy, a properly executed negotiated orderly sale / private treaty can be a highly effective and strategic approach. It allows for direct marketing to end-users who are often willing to pay a premium, while simultaneously allowing the client to manage their levels of exposure. The process can also be utilized as an effective auction precursor and barometer that builds momentum towards a positive outcome. Onyx’s leadership team has been involved in hundreds of dispositions and understands the intricacies involved and how to achieve maximum results.

Whether on-site, web-based, global or regional, the ultimate success of any auction relies on matching the right assets with the right group of prospective buyers and creating a competitive environment where they are motivated to buy. Onyx’s executive team is recognized throughout the industry for their diversified experience and understanding of diverse asset compositions. Our active and extensive relationship driven networks and reputation for creative marketing and advertising, make Onyx both an effective and welcome partner to any auction scenario.
