LIV Capital Acquisition Corp. is a blank check company for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We intend to focus our search on Mexican target businesses (or non-Mexican target businesses with a significant presence in Mexico). However, we are not limited to companies in this geographic area.
We will use these criteria and guidelines in evaluating acquisition opportunities:
Have the potential to further improve their performance from an active “hands-on” role in strategic, operational and financial direction. We intend to look for targets that have clear opportunities for long-term sustainable growth that may benefit from our transactional, financial, managerial and investment expertise as well as our extensive networks and insights. We believe our management team has the skills and capabilities to enhance companies’ results and intend to develop greater managerial depth and sophistication, facilitate new commercial opportunities and work closely with management in designing and executing growth strategies.
Have a proven business model with consistent operational performance. We expect to target a business that has significant commercial traction, robust growth potential and has historically exhibited profitability or has a clear path towards profitability.
Have top-tier proven executive management teams. We intend to seek a target that has an experienced managerial group with a clear vision about how to grow their company based on a successful track record of achieving a relevant market position in their industry.
Exhibit institutional-level operations and financial controls. We intend to seek a target that has the underlying infrastructure and operations to build a public platform.
Have durable competitive advantages that are differentiated in the sector. We intend to acquire an asset that not only benefits from secular tailwinds in its respective industry, but also exhibit hard-to-replicate competitive advantages amongst its peers.
May benefit from capital markets access. We intend to seek a target that may benefit from being, or has the potential to become, a public company with an increased public profile, enhanced corporate governance and increased access to a more diversified pool of capital.
Exhibit unrecognized value and desirable returns on capital. We intend to look for targets that we believe have been undervalued by the marketplace based on our analysis and due diligence review.
