a) Valuations & Business Modelling
Although thoroughly analysing the quantitative aspects of a business is important, a good business valuation also incorporates qualitative analysis of the business, the industry and the economic conditions in which the business operates.
Recognizing that a valuation is as much an art as it is a science, with many nuances involved in determining a value, we can support you by employing valuation techniques most appropriate to a specific situation, by understanding the economics of the organisation to offer value added advice.
You will be guided through the process of reviewing and developing activities, to improve your strategic plans and results, within your organisation.
b) M&A Advisory
Mergers and Acquisitions are always accompanied by high expectations, but studies have shown that more than half of these deals fail. However, an M&A is an integral part of any Company’s long-term strategy, in terms of calue creation. The primary purpose of a M&A is not to expand immediately, but for organisations to achieve greater results.
The key to M&As is care, diligence and skill, where we realise your organisation’s circumstances, define success protocols and identify transactional issues and opportunities. A well-built strategy will then deliver the much-needed outcomes and execute the plan with skill and confidence.
