Work highlights

Scotto Partners advised Diot Siaci’s management team on a major large cap transaction where Ardian is acquiring a significant equity stake. The firm was the lead advisor in the design of the reinvestment structure and the drafting of the investment agreement that underlay the drafting of the tax memo and setting up of the funds flow. Our tailor-made approach avoided financial and tax detrimental consequences for the minority shareholders.
Advised the management team of Eurobio Scientific in the context of the delisting of the company and the new LBO set up by IK Partners. Advised on all aspects of the structuring of the management package and designed a tailor-made cross-border MIP structure in order to comply with tax and legal requirements in various jurisdictions.
Advised the Management team of 2Ride group in the context of the group’s restructuring. This required not only legal and tax advice, but also a strong financial expertise in order to structure a MIP that will protect management’s stake and future value, taking into account the group’s structure and debt, and potential new equity injections.
