As M&A leaders in our sector, we combine outstanding
knowledge with outstanding practical expertise. Our accumulated
know-how and our rigorous research give us unrivalled insights into
the profile of buyers, their needs and the trends in each
sector. Our expertise has been honed through more than 20 years'
experience and over 200 completed transactions. We know all the

Whether you need to establish how much your company is worth -
and how much value you can add to it before sale - or you want to
know what buyers are looking for and how to deal with unsolicited
approaches, we can help. Other frequently asked questions we are
expertly-versed in dealing with are:
- What is the best deal structure for my business - cash vs
shares, and what about earn-outs?
- If I want to sell to my management, what are the issues
involved?
- What are the crucial factors holding back my valuation?
- Do I need share options or any other employee
incentivisation?
- Would I get a better price by selling to a private equity
house?
- How long does the sale process take?
- How long are earn-outs?
- How do I ensure confidentiality - and when do I tell my staff
and clients?
- When is the best time to sell?
- Why do I need an adviser to sell my business?
- When should I start preparing for a sale?
Achieving the successful sale of a business requires robust
planning, a watertight process, and exceptional execution. No other
advisor has completed as many M&A transactions in this
industry.
