The Water Strategy & Finance Consultancy
H2O Insights is a leading water strategy & finance consultancy, providing water executives with unique insight and advice on developing their water strategy. We work with corporations, private equity firms, and venture capital investors to strengthen an existing business or develop and/or acquire new businesses in the water sector.
With 20 years of capital markets experience and nearly a decade of dedicated research on the water sector, our leadership has developed a broad and differentiated perspective of the water sector, providing competitive analysis, strategy, and financial insight to address the $700 billion water market.
As your corporate development partner, we offer a thorough analysis of the markets your business is pursuing, and work on a comprehensive strategy to address those markets with an emphasis on the financial impacts on your organization. We help your team develop a successful water M&A strategy while also looking at organic growth opportunities and strategic partnerships. Our objective is to assist your organization with growth initiatives that create long-term value.
While acquisitions can be an attractive means to accelerate growth, we also provide support around organic growth and go-to-market strategies. We evaluate the product gaps and identify opportunities to leverage your strengths into new products, markets, or applications. We help your team understand the end-markets, the growth drivers, channel dynamics, decision makers, and influencers - where to play and what it takes to win.
Additionally, we provide insight to and analysis of the financial metrics to improve your forecasting and budgeting, aiding in the FP&A function.
Our goal is to improve your decision making by providing you with the analytical insight to increase your return on invested capital.
The Challenge
While industry participants are well aware of the growing importance of addressing our global water challenges, from drought to flooding to water quality, the demand for water solutions is often slow and unpredictable. Meanwhile, the competitive landscape is at times shifting due to new market entrants or regulatory dynamics. In the end, companies are faced with a surprisingly greater-than-expected challenge of how to tap into this enormous market while meeting KPIs such as market share, return on invested capital, or margins.
What We Offer
H2O Insights is dedicated to helping companies develop a coherent business and finance strategy to serve the global water markets. By leveraging our experience and relationships along with independent research, we provide companies valuable insight into market opportunities, product gaps, trends, and potential for synergies. We then leverage our insight to help map the growth strategy, considering organic growth, M&A opportunities, and strategic partnerships, working closely with our clients to develop a robust acquisition funnel.
Additionally, we offer financial planning and analysis to improve the forecasting process and help companies better align resources with objectives.
