When Bharat Forge (www.bharatforge.com), the largest Indian automotive forging company, decided to consider investing in China, E. J. McKay was selected to advise on strategies for entering China, analyzing the market dynamics and competitive landscape of the Chinese forging sector and weighing the most viable means of investing in the Chinese market.

We then represented Bharat Forge in acquiring a controlling stake in FAW Forging, the largest Chinese automotive forging company, and forming an equity joint venture with First Auto Works (www.faw.com), the largest automotive group in China. The merger created the second largest automotive forging company globally.

When the private equity owner of HyperEdge Corp., a leading Wisconsin, USA based telecom equipment manufacturer, approached E. J. McKay to seek buyers for the portfolio company, E. J. McKay quickly responded by assembling a global execution team.

By mobilizing our resources in China, India, Europe, and the United States, we marketed the company to a broad number of quality potential financial and strategic buyers, eventually resulting in the sale of HyperEdge to Westell Technology (www.westell.com), a NASDAQ listed company, helping HyperEdge's management and shareholders successfully realize their financial and strategic objectives.

When Unistone Electric (www.unistone.com), a leading waste treatment equipment and solutions provider based in Shanghai approached E. J. McKay to seek growth capital, E. J. McKay studied the company and found that Unistone operated in an attractive sector (environmental protection), possessed market-leading technology, and had a trusted management team in place.

Upon undertaking the engagement, E. J. McKay studied in depth the waste treatment business, prepared the private placement memorandum, and generated keen interest among a select group of quality investors. Today, the company is the largest player in kitchen waste treatment solutions in China, with products distributed domestically and internationally. E. J. McKay is also proud to be associated with a company providing positive environmental and social benefits.
