Business
Houlihan Lokey, Inc. operates as a global investment banking firm, delivering a wide array of financial services globally. Its specialized offerings encompass mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advisory, capital markets solutions, financial restructuring, and sophisticated financial and valuation advisory services. The firm structures its operations across three primary divisions: Corporate Finance, Financial Restructuring, and Financial and Valuation Advisory. The Corporate Finance segment extends comprehensive financial guidance, assisting both public and private entities, including significant financial sponsors, with various transactions. This includes advising on both buyer-side and seller-side M&A activities, a diverse range of debt and equity financings across public and private markets, and other strategic corporate finance engagements. The Financial Restructuring division provides expert counsel to debtors, creditors, and other interested parties involved in recapitalization and deleveraging scenarios. Its services span the intricate structuring, negotiation, and confirmation of reorganization plans, analysis and design of exchange offers, evaluations of corporate viability, dispute resolution, expert testimony, and securing debtor-in-possession financing. Houlihan Lokey has been consistently recognized as a leading global restructuring advisor. Within the Financial and Valuation Advisory segment, the firm offers comprehensive valuation services for diverse assets, such as entire businesses, illiquid debt and equity holdings, and intellectual property. This segment is also responsible for issuing fairness opinions for M&A and other strategic transactions, solvency opinions for corporate spin-offs and dividend recapitalizations, and various other financial opinions. Additionally, it provides dispute resolution consulting and portfolio valuation and fund advisory. Serving a broad client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, financial sponsors, and government agencies, the company was established in 1972 and maintains its headquarters in Los Angeles, California. Houlihan Lokey boasts a significant international footprint with offices across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region, enabling a global reach with localized expertise. Recent strategic moves include the acquisition of Waller Helms Advisors and Park Sutton Advisors in December 2024 to bolster its Financial Services Group, along with ongoing expansion of its senior leadership across various groups in late 2025. The firm's independent advisory model, free from the conflicts often found in larger institutions, is a key element of its value proposition, allowing for objective client advocacy.
