Who this is for

  • You've decided to grow through acquisition but don't yet have a shortlist of real targets.
  • You have a target in mind and need to work out what to pay and how to structure the deal.
  • A previous approach stalled because the owner went quiet or the numbers didn't hold up in diligence.
  • You have the appetite and the capital, but not the team to run a buy-side process properly.

HOW IT RUNS

How the process runs

Every acquisition is different, but the work falls into three phases: defining the search and finding targets, engaging owners and testing the deal, and getting to close.

Preparation

We agree the acquisition criteria, scan the market, and build a target list worth pursuing.

Approach and diligence

We approach owners, open the conversations, and test each business against your criteria through structured due diligence.

Closing

We benchmark the price, help structure the offer, and manage negotiation and confirmatory diligence through to signing.

Both. Most engagements start with the search: we agree your criteria, scan the market, and approach owners directly, including companies that aren't for sale. If you already have a target, we join at that point and run the evaluation, the question of what to pay, the deal structure, and the negotiation. Either way the same team carries the deal from first contact to signing, so nothing is lost between finding a company and closing on it.
