Achieve more from your next transaction
Buying, selling or investing in a business can be complex and is not without risk, but it can also deliver fantastic benefits to you and any existing business you own and provide additional synergies between your business and the one you acquire.
During the transactional process, there are many things that you need to consider, not least whether the deal is right for you and how it will affect your tax position.
We offer a thorough, value-added advisory service during complex transactions, including financial and tax due diligence to mitigate risk and reduce overall exposure.
Our transaction service includes:
- Pre-sale hygiene exercise
- Business structure review, including reorganisations and demergers
- Financial due diligence during a sale or purchase
- Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) and Business Sale Agreement (BSA) review and input
- Modelling and forecasts of working capital levels
- Tax assessment and planning
- Completion preparation/review
Why conduct due diligence? – A buyer’s perspective
Conducting a comprehensive due diligence process will deliver a deeper appreciation of the company you are acquiring and how this will fit within an existing business.
We thoroughly review every element of a transaction to uncover information and insights that will ensure you:
- Minimise the risk to you
- Maximise the returns from your investment
- Pay the right price for any shares or assets you acquire
- Protect you from costly obligations.
Our other services
Beyond the due diligence service on offer, we also provide several supporting services that consider ways to strengthen a deal, whether you are buying, selling or investing.
This includes:
- Data room support
- Sale and purchase agreement advice
- Financial modelling
- Advice on payroll issues associated with a transaction.
As part of our service, we can also conduct a full tax assessment to give you a clearer idea of how a transaction will affect your tax position. This includes assessing your plans so that deals are structured in the most tax-efficient manner.
Before undertaking any transaction, we take the time to understand your ambitions and concerns so that we can help to deliver the best deal possible to you.
We can also use the latest IT systems to easily communicate the ins and outs of each deal, providing you with a higher level of insight to assist decision-making.
