Selling your business

Each business is different and we treat them as such. We develop a bespoke process for each sale typically carrying out the following:

• performing an initial exit review and analysis, where we will present to shareholders and management our views of:

  • value;

  • how value will change over time;

  • the most likely acquirers of a business;

  • the optimum timing of a sale;

  • how best to present the business for sale;

  • any actions that could improve value; and

  • the best process for a sale.

• developing the process for sale, preparing financial models, writing an information memorandum, preparing management presentations and monitoring progress against any agreed pre-sale actions;

• working with you to develop a list of buyers/investors and approaching them using methods which will optimise the chances of success and value, whilst being mindful of confidentiality and commercial sensitivities;

• project managing the actual sale process by assisting in the selection and management of other professional advisors such as lawyers, tax advisors and due diligence providers; and

• selecting an appropriate bidder and managing the terms and commercial aspects of legal agreements with a preferred bidder through to completion.
