Lionel L.

Independent advisor on the financial impact of water resources for companies, funds, and M&A teams. Not a technical engineering firm, nor a general ESG consultancy.

The thesis is simple and deliberately contrarian: water is not yet a direct asset for most players, but it is already an impact variable on their existing assets, operating margins, valuation, due diligence, insurance risk, divestment exposure. This is where the real value of consulting lies.

Each intervention answers a decision-maker's question: what is the real cost of my water exposure? What does it change in my valuation? How to integrate it into an acquisition process? No compliance report sold as strategy. No CSR narrative. A financial reading of a risk that the market has not yet correctly priced, with a financialization gap estimated at 15 to 20 years behind carbon. This is the window that Blue Contrarian Advisory is structured to occupy.

For a consultancy firm specializing in business and company divestment and acquisition, my role was essential in highlighting and valuing businesses and companies through our internal framework, thus ensuring fair and equitable transactions.

- Analysis and Valuation:I applied rigorous valuation methods to assess companies, considering various factors such as divestment terms (shares, goodwill, lease rights), as well as relevant legal and tax aspects.

- Strategy and Negotiation:I defined and implemented tailored strategies for each project, targeting the most relevant deals and orchestrating negotiation phases. This includes managing essential documents such as teasers, feasibility studies, sale agreements, NDAs, LOIs, protocols, and GAP analyses.

- Financing and Closing:My expertise extended beyond negotiation, including assisting clients in obtaining appropriate professional financing and finalizing transactions (Closing/buyout).

- Expertise in divestment and acquisition:Mastery of business and company divestment and acquisition processes.

- Analytical and valuation skills:Accurate assessment of companies to ensure fair transactions.

- Negotiation and mediation skills:Excellent negotiation skills and ability to facilitate agreements between parties.

- Project management:Ability to complete complex projects on time, meeting deadlines and client needs.

This experience allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the commercial, legal, and financial issues related to the divestment and acquisition of companies, positioning me as a reliable and competent advisor in this field.
