Due-Diligence

Due diligence can provide information and insights on:

  • The operations of the target business, including highlighting the levels of sustainable income
  • Appropriateness of the accounting policies adopted by the target
  • The key financial and commercial risks of doing the transaction
  • Warranties and indemnities that should be obtained to form part of the sales and purchase agreement
  • Deal closing advice and negotiation points that will prove useful at the transaction finalisation and completion stages

We believe due diligence should be viewed holistically ensuring that issues within a business function are not considered exclusively and looked across the whole business.   We are focussed on supporting our clients make that informed investment decision. We help clients do that by providing them with robust financial due diligence services that are clearly linked to their requirements as purchaser and also suitable for their funders. We provide our clients with pragmatic and commercial insight. Our opinions and reports focus on the main issues but are still comprehensive enough to provide you with a deep understanding of the business.

  • Due diligence before takeovers, mergers, buy-outs and joint venture
  • Financial and tax due diligence
  • Agreed upon procedures reports
  • Assessment of the risks and opportunities in a potential transaction
  • Conducting a  comprehensive examination of the business, financial, tax and legal situation of the target company
  • Accompanying acquisition processes ( buy-side due diligence/ vendor due diligence)
