Preparation is key in deals. We work alongside you to get the fundamentals in place, optimise timing and ensure the business is investor-ready - so when you go to market, you’re positioned for the best outcome. If a sale isn’t imminent, we will help you strengthen the business now so you are ready to capture full value when the time is right.
We know how buyers assess value and price risk. We use those insights to craft a compelling equity story that highlights the strengths they value and addresses potential concerns - so you can approach buyer conversations with confidence.
In recent years, investment firms with a Constellation-style thesis have multiplied across Europe and the US - giving founders more choice than ever. We have access to hundreds of well-capitalised buyers, meaning you don’t have to settle, but can secure the partner who fits your criteria and sees the full value of your business.
M&A can feel like a full-time job, often pulling focus from running the business - which, ironically, can hurt the process itself. We know it inside out and guide you through every step, from preparation and managing diligence to negotiating the final transaction documents.
Buyers structure deals to protect their returns. We know the parameters they operate within and use that insight to help you optimise both upfront valuation and earn-outs - including making sure targets are achievable. Beyond headline price, we ensure you secure favourable terms that are often overlooked in negotiations.
