Investment Participation

Selective participation where alignment extends beyond advisory.

Alongside its consulting and development work, CY Media may consider selected investment opportunities and may receive equity-linked interests as part of negotiated compensation.

A flexible approach to alignment.

CY Media's investment activities complement its broader involvement with companies. The company selectively evaluates opportunities where there may be an attractive combination of business fundamentals, strategic alignment, commercial potential, and appropriate transaction terms.

Participation may occur through private placements or other privately negotiated arrangements, and is conducted selectively on an opportunity-by-opportunity basis. CY Media is not a fund or investment product and does not manage money for outside investors.

Forms of participation

How participation can be structured.

Illustrative only—these do not imply that CY Media will pursue any particular structure or opportunity.

01

Private Placements

CY Media may consider participating in privately negotiated financings where an opportunity is consistent with its interests and evaluation criteria. Participation is not limited to companies receiving advisory services, and providing services does not imply CY Media will invest. Each decision is considered separately.

02

Equity-Based Compensation

CY Media may enter arrangements in which some or all of its compensation consists of shares, warrants, or other equity-linked interests. Such structures can create longer-term alignment, and are presented as one possible engagement structure rather than the default method of compensation.

03

Independent Evaluation

Each opportunity is assessed on its own merits. Providing services does not guarantee investment, and an investment does not require an advisory relationship.

Selection lens

What CY Media may consider.

Without a rigid mandate, an opportunity may be assessed against factors such as:

Underlying business & modelMarket position & opportunityManagement & executionStrategic fitCommercial potentialGrowth opportunitiesCapital structureTransaction termsAlignment between partiesAssociated risks
A flexible model

The engagement reflects the opportunity.

CY Media's advisory and investment activities allow for different forms of engagement. Some companies need a defined advisory assignment; others need broader development support; certain relationships develop into longer-term strategic engagements; and in selected situations CY Media may establish an economic interest through direct investment or equity-based compensation.

The structure reflects the nature of the opportunity—not a single fixed model.
Opportunities

Discuss an opportunity.

If you are considering a private placement or a relationship that may include an equity component, share some context and we can evaluate fit.
