Transaction support

Deals are won and lost on preparation. Most of the value is created before anyone opens a term sheet.

Method

How the work is done.

Buy-side and sell-side work, from first model to post-close integration.

  1. 01

    Buy-side discipline

    Target models, LBO structures, diligence question lists and a view on what the asset is actually worth to you.

  2. 02

    Sell-side preparation

    Normalised earnings, information memorandum support, and the answers ready before the questions land.

  3. 03

    Negotiation support

    Working capital mechanisms, earn-outs and structures modelled so you know what each concession costs.

  4. 04

    Post-close

    Opening balance sheet, integration of reporting, and the first clean consolidated month.
