Vision
Many startup and lower-middle market companies are facing a "capital desert." As Bulge Bracket banks have consolidated, many midsize and smaller investment banks have increased the minimums for their capital raises. Very few focus on early state businesses. Many have abandoned deal sizes under $20M, leaving many early stage and lower middle market companies without sophisticated institutional representation. SCM bridges this gap by providing institutional-grade investment banking to the underserved startup and small business sector as well as mid and large cap clients. SCM finds creative solutions to deliver capital to capital constrained companies. The proceeds of this capital raise will facilitate a substantial increase in our revenue via additional financial services professionals and continue building out of infrastructure to serve our clients. By scaling our Regulatory Net Capital through this offering, we unlock the ability to co-manage numerous large public offerings and eventually lead manage smaller public issuances. We combine four years of regulatory excellence with a high-agility business model that can capture the higher-margin fees from public offerings.

Market Opportunity
The capital provided will allow SCM to elevate its profile with large private equity firms and with investment debt grade issuers. Most of the proceeds ($3.5M) will be utilized as Regulatory Net Capital. This capital acts as a strategic 'multiplier' that allows the firm to increase its capacity, enabling us to co-manage larger municipal, equity and corporate underwriting that would have previously been beyond our regulatory ceiling. This $3.5 million will remain on the balance sheet unspent. It will be invested in short duration investment grade fixed income securities.
Net Cap is a FINRA and SEC requirement. It is effectively a cash balance maintained by a firm that affects the size of public issuances a firm can participate in. The higher the Net Cap the larger the participation in public offerings.
