Merger, Acquisition, MBO - which is best for you....

 

When planning for a business merger, acquisition or a management buyout there are a number of factors to take in to account aside from the deal itself, including the possible change in management, a change in processes, a new location and of course the psychological effects of change.

 

Although we love to see our clients’ businesses grow organically, we also understand that organic growth is not the only option at times. A strategic and well timed 'deal' is not only one of the fastest ways to grow a business, but can also one of the riskiest if you do not plan for all aspects of change.

 

Having first hand experience in acquisitions, we can guide you through the process of acquisition, starting with a review of your business’s corporate objectives and helping to identify potential companies.

 

Throughout the process we will effectively project manage the deal on your behalf, from helping you to identify potential targets, to raising business finance and negotiating the final deal.

 

We will also take into account the implications of a merger aside from the actual deal itself, including a change in management/personnel, a potential location change, and any further psychological affects such a process may have on those involved.

 

We can help to evaluate the target company, provide a considered valuation and appropriate offer price, and assist with raising the finance needed to secure the deal.

 

Furthermore, a management buyout (MBO) can be a once in a lifetime opportunity for a team to own their own business.

 

Often a time consuming and complex process, we recognise that you may not have the time or resources to go through the whole process alone. We can help to evaluate the company, provide a considered valuation and appropriate offer price, and assist with raising the finance needed to secure the deal in an efficient and timely manner.

 

Our knowledge and expertise will also consider the reorganisation from a compliance and technical aspect to ensure all the boxes are ticked.
