Skadden’s California Capital Markets practice is distinguished by its broad and deep expertise across all types of capital markets transactions for both public (including SPACs) and private companies, representing issuers, underwriters and investors. The team handles the full range of equity transactions — IPOs, SPAC IPOs, registered direct and follow-on offerings, block trades, pre-IPO investments, PIPEs, private placements and “at the market” or “equity line” offerings. In debt markets, Skadden advises on investment grade and high-yield debt, convertible debt, tender and exchange offers, consent solicitations, recapitalizations, restructurings and other balance sheet matters. The practice also structures customized transactions leveraging the firm’s global M&A, restructuring and energy and infrastructure expertise, including acquisition financings (such as deSPACs), triple-track IPOs, distressed financings, global refinancings and joint venture or co-investment financings. Skadden’s team is known for innovation, having pioneered products like the first catastrophic bond credit agreement and trust preferred deal, as well as recent private capital financings for energy transition and technology projects. This combination of experience, industry knowledge and innovation enables Skadden to deliver tailored, comprehensive service to clients navigating the evolving capital markets.
