Sell-Side Advisory

When sellers enter into a discussion with potential acquirers, their level of confidence often proves integral to a successful outcome. That confidence is strengthened with the support of an investment banking team like ours, that has closed hundreds of transactions and executed hundreds of due diligence transaction mandates.

To promote the achievement of optimum value and enhance the likelihood of a successful transaction, our transaction and M&A professionals collaborate to identify and address critical issues that can impact a deal. Our team leads a confidential, competitive sale process during which we perform the following services:

  • Preparation: We conduct a thorough business analysis, address potential business and buyer concerns, develop a growth plan, review financial performance, address tax matters and assemble the professional team. Our expertise in positioning EBITDA adjustments favorably to strengthen the credibility of financial and business information often results in reducing re-trade opportunities, producing offers that will withstand buyer due diligence, accelerating time to close and increasing value.
  • Marketing: We create compelling marketing materials, financial models and narratives to attract potential buyers.
  • Buyer Identification: We search globally to determine potential buyers that hold the most promise from a strategic and financial perspective.
  • Negotiation: We evaluate and manage the negotiating process, advising on value, structure, terms, quality of buyers and certainty to close.
  • Closing Transaction: We drive the closing process, coordinating with legal counsel and other professionals to resolve deal issues while ensuring all conditions are met within an agreed-upon timeframe, including formal milestones and deadlines.
