Due Diligence
Acquisition due diligence validates the quality of information before a takeover and detects any elements that could affect its value or soundness. It is essential at every stage of an acquisition, sale, or external growth project, whether led by a private equity fund or an industrial or service company.
An operational expertise
Accounting, finance, management: our expertises cover all these aspects in accordance with our clients' requests. We adjust our tailor made approach to each specific case.
A structured step-by-step analysis
Before acquisition: we analyse legal, accounting and tax documents in the Data Room. We participate to management presentations, and perform on-site due diligence. The objective is to verify the validity of accounts, identify risks and provide key elements to drive the negotiations.
Post acquisition: we secure the execution of contractual engagements, and support external growth. More specifically, we calculate the earn-out clauses, verify the asset and liability guarantees, undertake the financial follow-up for acquired companies, structure management tools and optimise Working Capital Requirements.
In the case of a sell-down: we prepare the vendor due diligence to enhance the communication workstreams between potential interested parties and the seller. We structure key information, secure sensitive information as well as provide valuation levers. Our strengths: a thorough, fast and immediately usable analysis, which is a key differentiating factor in the more complex cases.
