In
most cases we establish consultancy agreements with our clients on a contract
basis for specific projects or on a retainer basis for long term advisory
assignments. In most cases we work alongside an internal team and
the company's existing advisors.
We use a sequential process that delivers value at each stage.
Analysis
A review of the current business and a listing of operational and
strategic choices for the business. This stage can lead to the
preparation of a business model.
Valuation
Estimating
the benefits and risks of each choice. This stage can include identifying
the components of value in the business or in a potential acquisition or
joint venture.
Identification
Evaluation of each choice with the owners and identification of the
operational and strategic choice for the business.
Optimisation
Establishes the financing and structure of a transaction so as to deliver the best possible after tax results, in consultation with your tax advisors.
Negotiation
With the key components of value known by you, negotiation is focused and purposeful.
Delivery
Due diligence by auditors and/or specialist asset valuation companies is targeted at the components of value, substantiating the price being paid. Contract negotiation and completion deliver the value in a secure manner.
