As with many businesses, the day may come when there is a need for a Mergers & Acquisitions transaction; perhaps as a result of a change in the business environment, retirement, business succession planning, other business interests, health reasons or simply due to a change in long-range plans for the company.
When considering a merger, acquisition, company sale, subsidiary divestiture or a private equity investment, companies will have to ask the following:
- How can I be sure I know the true value of my company and what it is worth?
- Will we have enough time and expertise to find a buyer, negotiate the deal, facilitate the transaction, negotiate terms, create the financial structure and continue to run and grow our business until closing?
- Is it possible to create a marketing program for my company that will attract the most qualified M&A candidates and investors, while keeping the matter absolutely confidential?
- Is there anything I can do now to increase the value of my business in advance of contemplating an M&A transaction?
- What should I be considering now in the areas of legal, tax and structural implications so I will be prepared to discuss these issues with my M&A advisory firm and my other advisors?
The success and profitability of an M&A transaction will depend on how you answer these and other related questions. Most companies lack the time, objectivity and expertise. Paragon Corporate Finance is the solution.
