Transaction Advisory Services
More successful, more global, bigger – Are you aiming to conquer the market by acquiring companies or parts of companies? There are numerous reasons for acquiring a company. These range from expanding your product line or customer base and taking over a competitor to advancing technological developments, embracing digital transformation, and venturing into international markets. Or are you considering selling your company or parts of it? In that case, you'll be looking for a fair purchase price and a trustworthy new owner.
Whatever the purpose of the purchase, the following questions regularly arise: Do the companies fit together? How much is the company to be transferred worth? What is the right purchase or selling price? How high are the economic and tax risks? Is there any potential for structuring? What happens to the employees? Does the target company fit into the portfolio structure? How can the target company be integrated into the existing company?
The crux of every transaction is the value of the company and how high the purchase price will ultimately be. This is followed by the question of how it can be financed. In short, in addition to a well-founded risk assessment, a realistic company valuation is essential. The basis for this is a due diligence. This enables the buyer to obtain a comprehensive overview of the current situation of the target company. In addition to financial issues, legal aspects, and tax structuring potential should not be neglected to implement holistic solutions.
When selling a company, we take these aspects into account when selecting suitable prospective buyers and when preparing supporting information for potential buyers to ensure the success of the transaction.
In such complex situations, the advantage lies with those who can fall back on a team of consultants from various disciplines who work hand in hand. With streamlined structures and transparent processes, results can be achieved that combine all relevant aspects. From the strategic derivation of your corporate goals, the determination of the transaction structure, the risk analysis of the target company, and the purchase price calculation, through to the contract negotiations, signing and closing – and post-merger integration: a team with the right contacts is at your side at every stage of the deal.
