M&A transactions can be technically and financially complex, involve a great deal of management time and can be extremely risky for the under prepared. They are a major step for any business. So regardless of where you are in the life-cycle of your business or your business sector, we provide the specialist skills, practical experience, and objectivity to ensure you achieve your objectives.
Moore Stephens Corporate Finance has a depth of experience in advising and supporting clients in the planning, negotiation, and completion of M&A deals. We provide hands-on support for management teams and funders including:
- origination;
- research;
- preparation and review of business plans;
- planning tax-efficiency;
- designing an appropriate funding structure;
- preparation of financial forecasts and financial modelling;
- valuation reports;
- approaching financiers and securing a funding package;
- advising on due diligence;
- transaction and project management to completion: and
- assistance with the financial terms of the legal documentation.
And if you’re looking to sell, we work closely with your management team to help you prepare your business. We will develop a detailed business brief which examines the business, its performance, assets, intellectual property and brand strength. We will identify, research and approach potential buyers on your behalf.
We will guide you through the entire process to ensure your interests are protected. We can help you:
- analyse and appraise your options;
- groom your business for sale;
- minimise your tax payable;
- research potential buyers and highlight potential complications and deal-breakers; and
- minimise your exposure to warranties and indemnities.
