BUY-SIDE DUE DILIGENCE Whether you are a financial sponsor or a corporation, due diligence is a key milestone on the critical path to complete an acquisition. This is the time to confirm the full potential value creation of a strategic opportunity. Our consultants will help you to ensure the quality of the historical financial information provided by the seller, challenge the assumptions of the presented business plan, provide reliable information to prepare an enterprise to equity value bridge and assist in the negotiation of the final price. Our report will be indispensable when documenting the transaction share purchase agreement and meeting the requirements of international standards for financial institutions providing external acquisition debt. READ MORE COMMERCIAL & STRATEGIC REVIEW When acquiring a company, it is crucial to be sufficiently confident in the potential of the company’s management team to realise projected growth. This also applies when selling a company: it is necessary to provide comfort to potential buyers. Our strategy consultants focus on quantifying future market potential, assessing the company’s competitive position and clarifying underlying drivers of value.
