Our corporate development program is
designed to serve:
Executives interested in growing
their business by mergers, acquisitions and alliances but
lacking the staff and expertise of a dedicated in-house
corporate development team.
Boards of directors fulfilling
their corporate governance responsibilities.
Kent Group principals add extensive resources
and skills to complement and work closely with senior management
and boards of directors in such areas as strategic planning,
capital structure, acquisitions, divestitures, alliances and
shareholder value enhancement. We follow a proactive, value-added
corporate development advisory philosophy that relies heavily
upon research, creativity, sophisticated financial modeling
and a high degree of agricultural and food industry insight.
Our board of directors advisory services support outside directors
in meeting their fiduciary responsibilities related to corporate
governance. We provide independent information, analysis and
advice to board members by reviewing information supplied by
management, analyzing the company’s financial condition
and performance, and facilitating communications between the
board and management. One of the key ways we can help boards
of directors motivate the company's management team and employees
and ensure shareholder value is maximized is by assisting the
board in measuring and managing the value of the company. We
can develop a program designed to motivate the company's employees
and align their actions and interests with the interests of
the shareholders–that is, maximizing shareholder value.
