Due Diligence and Corporate Finance Assignments
If you are considering acquiring another business you will first want to investigate what you are buying. Due diligence is the process of verifying the information provided by the seller so there are no nasty surprises! We will agree precise terms of reference and, because of the specialist nature of the task, use partners and senior managers who have relevant experience to carry out the work.
Due diligence in such a case could cover reporting on some or all of the following:-
The external business environment in which the company operates
The internal structure and systems
The financial position - profits, cash flow, assets and liabilities
Whether any forecasts or estimates are reasonable
The taxation position and relationships with any relevant authorities
Advice on the contract and assistance with drafting warranties
We can also assist you with:
AIM or OFEX flotation
Management buy outs or buy ins
Fundraising
Investigations prior to disposals or mergers
Selling your business
Litigation support
Share valuations
Loss of profits reports
Dispute resolutions or arbitrations
Obtaining grants or other assistance
