Independent Sponsor Cross-Border Structuring in Energy Services
Independent sponsor counsel for energy services, focused on Cross-Border Structuring and the deal mechanics that protect sponsor economics and LP alignment.
Every energy services acquisition has its own gravity. Cross-Border Structuring is the workstream where independent sponsor counsel earns the seat.
The typical energy services platform sits at $10M to $140M EV with EBITDA in the $2.5M to $24M range. The thesis runs on regional oilfield service or renewable services consolidation. Underwrite the trough, not the peak. Capital partners will.
How Cross-Border Structuring actually gets structured.
Map jurisdictional tax exposure with US and foreign counsel before the LOI.
Plan repatriation mechanics if cash is generated offshore.
Address CFIUS review where foreign capital is in the LP base.
Structure for treaty benefits where the operating geographies allow.
In energy services, layer in earnout indexed to gross margin instead of revenue as part of the Cross-Border Structuring workstream.
Treating cross-border deals like US deals with extra steps. Tax, regulatory, and timing assumptions break differently.
"Cross-border deals need three sets of advisors at the table from day one. Bring them."Jason Powell · Cross-Border Structuring
The deal is one thing. The capital that opens up after close is another.
After close, the call list for refinancing, recapitalization, and growth equity gets short and known. Jason carries that list.
