SERVICES

WE LET YOU FOCUS ON RUNNING YOUR OPERATING BUSINESS WHILE MAXIMIZING TRANSACTION SECURITY AND THE DESIRED OUTCOME

SELL-SIDE M&A

We accompany you on the sale of your business or subsidiaries with regards to your succession as well as for monetization or optimization purposes. Whether a strategic or financial partner, we have personal, long-standing relationships to a broad set of parties in DACH and internationally. We can therefore extend your options in finding the right “new home” for your company. 

We are your experienced guide who ensures that the complex, time-consuming sale process will be handled professionally, personally with highest senior attention, customized to your specific needs and in a confidential manner, to successfully complete a transaction. 

We support you from A to Z: Starting by developing the right equity story that facilitates interest, preparing a reliable financial model that buyers believe in as well as appealing marketing documents, identifying and approaching the right buyers, efficiently coordinating the process and other involved advisors, managing the due diligence workstream, to negotiating the best possible deal for you.

BUY-SIDE M&A

We guide you on the acquisition of a competitor or complementary company for further growth by expanding into new product categories, geographies or along the value chain.

We are your partner that helps to successfully accelerate your organic growth or reach your strategic goals through inorganic initiatives.

We can assist you from the beginning by identifying potential acquisition targets on an international scale, discretely approaching them as 3rd party advisor, finding a realistic and fair valuation for the business(es), preparing convincing and professional offer letters/indications of interest, coordinating the due diligence process (incl. financial, tax and legal advisors) and structuring the transaction, until the successful acquisition of one or more businesses.

GROWTH EQUITY FINANCING

Raising funds is crucial for startups to further scale their operations, enter new geographies, launching new products or execute acquisitions. As a startup, we support you on securing mid- to late-stage equity growth capital (potentially also in combination with a debt component).

With our large network of Private Equity, Venture Capital, family offices and business angels as well as our profound fundraising execution knowledge, we ensure that you raise your envisaged capital amount, at an attractive valuation and find the right, value-add investor that brings you forward.

We are committed to be your sparring partner: From developing an interest-generating Investor Presentation, challenging your financial plan, introducing you to the right parties, making you ready for investor calls by running dry-runs, managing the process with all involved parties, until negotiating the best terms for you.

STRATEGIC PROJECTS

In addition to concrete deal situations, we can also efficiently support you in the execution of various transaction- or finance-related strategic projects.

We are your outsourced provider to get these projects done in an efficient and timely manner. Our flexible, modular approach also allows you to only select specific workstreams or single tasks for which you need support along the following areas:

  • Creation of comprehensive financial models in Excel
    (e.g. business plans)

  • Management of due diligence and data room preparation

  • Development and review of your M&A strategy

  • M&A and fundraising readiness reviews

  • Interim project management on- or off-site
