Mergers & Aquisitions
Whether a merger or an acquisition, it will involve a series of complex issues that require the input of experienced professionals. The number of considerations can be daunting for domestic and global operations. Covisory has the expertise to guide you through the process, ensuring key areas are addressed efficiently and effectively.
Our Expertise Covers:
1. Due Diligence
A thorough due diligence process is critical for identifying potential risks and ensuring that all aspects of a deal are transparent.
Covisory assists with financial, legal, and operational due diligence to uncover hidden liabilities, ensure accurate valuation, and assess the company’s health. Our team looks beyond surface-level issues to provide you with a complete picture of the target business.
2. Deal Structuring
Deal structuring can significantly impact the success of a merger or acquisition. The proper structure optimises tax outcomes, minimises legal risks, and ensures both parties achieve their objectives.
We work with you to design an optimal deal structure that aligns with your financial, tax, and business goals, whether the transaction involves asset purchases, stock purchases, or joint ventures. Covisory’s expertise ensures your deal is structured for long-term success.
3. Sell-Side Services
Preparing a business for sale requires strategic planning to maximise value and attract the right buyers.
Covisory offers sell-side advisory services. We help you prepare your business by streamlining financials, addressing operational inefficiencies, and positioning it attractively in the market. We also guide you through the negotiation process to ensure the best outcome.
4. Restructuring & Bankruptcy Services
In financial distress or insolvency cases, companies may need to restructure to avoid bankruptcy or protect value.
Covisory guides businesses through complex restructuring processes, from renegotiating debt terms to restructuring operations to preserve value. In bankruptcy situations, we help manage creditor negotiations, protect assets, and advise on liquidation or recovery options.
