What is your company worth? And how much of it reaches closing?
An independent valuation, with transparent assumptions, to anchor the negotiation. And end-to-end management of the sale: Data Room, Vendor Due Diligence, buyer Q&A, price mechanisms and contract support, until the money comes in.
Value is lost between the offer and closing.
Even with an interested buyer, the price drops with every unanswered question, missing document or poorly defined debt and working-capital adjustment.
Price without an anchor
Without a defensible valuation, the seller negotiates on the buyer's numbers.
Documentation gaps
Every gap in the Data Room becomes a discount, an extra warranty or a delay.
Price adjustments
Poorly negotiated net debt and working-capital definitions erode equity value.
A closing that drags on
Q&A without deadlines or priorities wears the buyer down and opens room for renegotiation.
A defensible number and a process that closes.
We first understand the business and inspect the controls behind the numbers: revenue, costs, cash, purchasing, inventory, contingencies and fixed assets. On that basis, we project revenue, costs, investment and cash flow, set the discount rate from risk and cost of capital and reach the value through DCF, adjusted EBITDA and multiples, with sensitivity analysis, in 4 weeks. In the sale, we organize the Data Room, run the Vendor Due Diligence and the buyer Q&A within agreed deadlines, negotiate the price mechanisms and translate the financial points into the contract, through closing.
You receive a valuation report with open assumptions, calculations and rationale, evidenced quality of earnings and a clear price bridge for the negotiation. In the transaction, you receive a complete, auditable Data Room, recorded answers to the buyer, a Term Sheet with price, payment terms and conditions defined, and economic support on the contract until the money comes in.
The difference between selling and selling well.
