Managing the Exit Process

Wh⁴ operates as a private strategic office for entrepreneurs navigating complex exit transactions.

Wh⁴ advises founder-led platform, technology, software and data-driven businesses with recurring revenue and identifiable strategic acquirers. We typically engage where enterprise value is expected to fall between $30m and $200m. Our focus is structural quality and strategic relevance — not sector fashion.

We are engaged before, during and beyond the deal.

Our role includes:

Turnkey sale process management
Strategic exit architecture
Buyer positioning and leverage control
Transaction structure modelling
Risk analysis and negotiation preparation
Adviser coordination
Founder outcome scenario planning

We sit above the process, not inside it.

Banks execute.
Lawyers draft.
Accountants structure.

We manage the process and protect the founder, from beginning to end.

Early Preparation

Beyond Transactions

Wh⁴ is not a venture capital firm but in addition to our sell-side M&A division, we also like to invest in exciting technology businesses which we can generate significant value and ones we believe we could assist on their future exit.

We do not deploy institutional capital, rather we invest our time and expertise in select businesses with the right fundamentals.

Our portfolio has been built through:

Strategic advisory relationships
Equity participation aligned with value creation
Long-term partnerships with founders

We invest expertise, judgment and structural advantage — not cheques.

Our interests are aligned with the entrepreneurs we represent. maintains a portfolio of businesses where our strategic involvement has led to long-term alignment and equity participation.

These are not passive investments. They are partnerships formed through expertise and value creation.
