Practising the science of Business for the art of being successful
Business Acquisitions & Disposals
Sometimes the best way to improve your competitive edge is through a merger or acquisition. However this can can be a complex and time consuming process, if it not dealt with in a professional manner. This is an area where the support and assistance of trained professionals with practical experience can help. We can assist you in the following areas:
- Identify potential targets for merger and acquisition
- Screen targets for suitability
- Prepare a relevant business plan and heads of terms
- Assist in negotiations
- Assist in raising the funds
- Develop an integration plan
- Optimise the tax and financial position of the combined enterprise
You may decide the way forward is through a disposal, for strategic, retirement or other reasons. Again, we can help with valuing the assets, finding suitable purchasers and negotiating the sale.
We have access to an extensive national database of businesses for sale and businesses wanted which we can search on your behalf. The membership of this database is made up of like minded professional advisers throughout the UK, who advertise their clients' businesses for sale and look for acquisition opportunities on their clients' behalf. We can arrange for a confidential direct mail-shot to these member firms, with details of your specific requirements, offering you access to a large number of potential acquirers or businesses available for sale.
We also regularly help with Management Buy Outs and Buy Ins.
