Introducing Exolta Capital
The boutique advisory firm with big reach
Unlike a consultancy firm,
we are not just focused on ‘report
and go’ we are hands on by
nature. In addition, our
access to finance helps many clients to implement their
growth plans more rapidly than
their peers.

Exolta is a collective of senior executives and non-executive directors specialising in providing unparalleled business growth guidance to agile and ambitious businesses. Whilst our website will share a little more background about what we do, this page is intended to explain more about our ethos.
We are a team of experts operating within the business growth and corporate finance marketplace. We operate globally in businesses and companies on all continents, offering support to individuals and businesses focused on achieving their ambitious growth plans and realising value from their business enterprises. Our advisers have experience of working in over 50 countries in a broad spectrum of international sectors and industries.
We consider that every client business is different which is why the support we provide is tailored to fit the specific circumstances of the business and its current level of maturity.
Our intelligent, tried and tested methods and approaches coupled with our specialist knowledge allow our advisers to maximise the client benefits from our assignments and minimise the stress of every project to management teams focused on business as usual. This approach helps our clients to focus on what they do best..
In terms of our services to Private Equity, we have a track record of generating considerable value for our investment community clients through understanding their investment profile intimately, identifying high growth potential businesses, engineering creative and robust structures and backing management teams to deliver these objectives.
Exolta‘s competitive advantage is our direct access to equity funds, consistent quality and volume of deal flow, experience in both advisory and principal roles and a track record of unlocking significant value.
Exolta Capital Partners is fully owned by its founders and as such can be flexible and creative in how it structures its participation in its investments.
Introducing Exolta Capital
Why not give our world class mentoring service a try?
Mentoring, training, coaching
and staff development are
at the cornerstone of learning
organisations.
Exolta’s Consultants have
many years experience of
providing such activities to high performing team
3
All businesses, whether focused on growth or on performance improvement, create demands on the management team which often distract from ‘business-as-usual’.
In times when this starts to reduce management’s attention on their own development or their ability to continue effective decision making,
it is often the case that a straightforward sounding board will help to return the degree of focus previously enjoyed.
Exolta recognise this and have an effective coaching and mentoring programme which helps management teams and business leaders to continue to develop, make effective decisions and to retain appropriate strategic focus whilst continuing to deliver business as usual.
Our work in this area is highly regarded and we frequently spend time with our clients to discuss what their detailed needs are before developing a bespoke programme of activities and meetings to support the mentoring requirements.
If your requirements are more focused on team development or you have a need to work with a small group of staff or managers to help deliver a change,
we can help with a variety of tools and proven techniques we have developed to improve staff engagement.
Exolta’s experience in this area ranges from bespoke engagement programmes for large listed businesses and international ventures focused in implementing large scale change through to agile, fast moving start ups focused on achieving a mature, stable team at the earliest opportunity.
Where necessary, we have specialist partner organisations we work with who are able to undertake specific ‘people solution’ activities such as psychometric testing, team and individual profiling and undertaking the development of detailed personal and professional development programmes.
Introducing Exolta Capital
Exceptional outcomes through effective business transformation
For many clients we work with they need assistance to
help interpret their vision and objectives into
actionable outcomes and
then develop a programme to
take them there.

Businesses in growth experience huge levels of change, driven by the need to:
Respond to competitive threats and decreases in customer spend through the innovation and launch of new products and services
Creating efficiencies and cost reductions by rationalising systems and processes and outsourcing low value tasks
Exolta will work closely with you to:
Work with your board, corporate or senior management team to define your strategic objectives and develop your new business model
Create and manage a programme of communication activities to generate awareness and support for your new business discretion
Enhance your project management approach to include activities for implementing and embedding change
Transform your capacity for change by identifying project and changes into a portfolio of initiatives and prioritising this portfolio against your critical success factors
Develop your capability for change by transferring our knowledge to your staff through coaching, mentoring and the provision of workshops and tailored training courses
Introducing Exolta Capital
The perfect marriage… The result of Exolta assistance with mergers and acquisitions
Developing a robust response to
inorganic growth needs has
delivered step changes in
performance for many of our
clients.
5
At Exolta, we focus on a range of growth initiatives for our clients. Some of these relate to inorganic growth through mergers or acquisitions. Exolta‘s experience in supporting merger and acquisition strategies and activity includes working with companies looking to acquire, or be acquired, as well as private equity firms.
Exolta participates in all four key phases:
Strategy and Deal Rhetoric
Target Identification
Due Diligence
Post-Acquisition Execution
Our work in this area aims to:
Validate cost/benefit assumptions.
Identifying hidden value/synergies.
Providing a list of priorities to capture short-term savings and/or customer benefits.
Developing a list of investments to support the strategic goals.
From planning through implementation, Exolta brings its clients measurable improvements in perfect alignment with their business strategies.
Introducing Exolta Capital
Strategy is not just about a report…
Many organisations
have a strategy. Its normally a well
prepared history of where the
business has come from and a
description of where its going.
It’s the document in the office most
likely to be gathering dust!
We believe that a strategy should be
more embedded into the business
and should certainly include a map of how to get to where you want
to.

Exolta bring to bear the very best thinking in external perspectives which help our clients to tackle strategic issues and challenges. We help our clients develop clear corporate and business unit strategy relating to changing customer behaviour, competitor business models, changing domestic and global markets, or simply by helping to structure ‘thinking’ in respect of complex growth issues. An external perspective can challenge the received wisdom within any business. We focus on the areas of strategy where our research-based, customer-focused approach can add real value. Some of the issues which challenge our clients often include questions such as:
Why are our competitors outperforming us and what can we do about it?
What is the size and what are the dynamics of the market and how should I exploit them?
How is our industry or chosen sector likely to change and how do we keep pace?
Which customer groups are most profitable, and how can we find more of them and their on-going needs?
Our view is that in all cases, its not just the written word that will help here. Our experience is that you will need to embed strategic management techniques into the fabric of your business. That’s where you can trust Exolta to help.
Introducing Exolta Capital
Finessing your plans to provide real direction
Programme and project
management, change
management and communications
and the development of
project and business
dashboards and KPIs are often
overlooked activities by
businesses stretched for
resource.

Whatever your current situation, you will need your business and financial models to be relevant, accurate, reliable and robust. Businesses and lenders/investors are facing an increasingly risk-based business environment, which brings added obligations for improved reporting of information and more robust and transparent analysis.
Exolta can provide practical financial models which are central to these reporting and analysis functions and ultimately are fit for purpose in supporting a range of transactions/situations.
All of our work in this area stands close scrutiny with banks and other financial institutions and because of the increased independence we bring, they often obviate the need for further/detailed due diligence.
Making the plan happen is another matter. However, at Exolta, our carefully selected programme and project managers and directors have been through major implementations time and again, honing their skills, experience and developing valuable instincts to apply to your change programme.
Key to our success in programme management of the implementation is the use of an effective dashboard.
Whilst often put on the ‘too difficult to do’ list or the ‘too expensive to contemplate’ pile, our work in this area is made cost effective through the use of proven frameworks and methodologies. This coupled with Exolta‘s market leading business intelligence advisers means that we can often devise and implement a real-time dashboard in this area which adds real value at marginal cost.
