Business Acquisition (Buy-Side)
Buying a business is one of the largest financial decisions an owner can make, and the numbers behind the deal decide whether it is a good one. We support buyers with the financial side of an acquisition: understanding what you are really buying, what it is worth, and how to structure the purchase before you commit.
How we help
Our role on the buy side is to make sure you walk in with clear eyes. We dig into the financials, put a defensible value on the business, and help you understand the deal you are about to sign.
We pressure-test the financials. We work through the target's books, earnings, and cash flow to separate what is real and repeatable from what is not.
We put a defensible value on it. Using SDE and Adjusted EBITDA, we help you understand what the business is worth and what you should pay.
We model the deal. Purchase price, financing, and structure all change your return and your risk. We run the scenarios before you commit.
We help you reach closing informed. You move forward knowing the numbers, the risks, and the tax consequences of how the deal is built.
