Company sales, acquisitions and succession are decisive phases, with significant financial and often personal implications. We support clients throughout, from considering the available options, whether a full or partial sale, an acquisition, a joint venture or an equity arrangement, and preparing the business accordingly, through to coordinating buy-side or sell-side due diligence, negotiation, signing, closing and post-merger integration.
Our role is to bring together the findings from financial, tax, legal and commercial due diligence, working alongside specialised partners, weigh risks and opportunities, and support decisions that are sound in terms of cash flow, structure and governance. Particularly in entrepreneurial families, we link succession questions with structure, financing and role clarity, so that the company remains fully operational, participation is fair and family cohesion is preserved.
Transactions & Succession
Company sales, acquisitions and succession are decisive moments in the life of a business. We guide you through these phases, from the initial consideration of options to orderly integration into existing structures.
Strategic Preparation
At the outset, we clarify objectives, parameters and alternatives: full sale, partial sale, acquisition, joint venture or equity arrangement. We analyse the business model, structure, market position and cash profile, and from this derive a viable transaction path.
Buy-Side & Sell-Side Support
On the buy-side, we support target identification, initial approach, valuation, structuring and negotiation. On the sell-side, we prepare the company for the market, coordinate the bidding process, and manage information flows and timing so that you remain in control throughout.
Due Diligence Co-Ordination
We coordinate financial, tax, legal and commercial due diligence together with specialised partners. Our role is to bring the findings together, weigh risks and opportunities, and create a sound basis for negotiation and decision-making.
Signing, Closing & Integration
After signing, the real work begins. We support the planning and implementation of post-merger integration. Structures, processes, reporting, liquidity management and governance must be aligned if two entities are to become one viable whole. Where needed, we can also assume interim responsibility.
Succession Planning in Entrepreneurial Families
Particular attention is given to succession in entrepreneurial families. Here, we bring together structural, financial and family considerations so that the company remains fully operational, participation is fair and roles are clear.
