Buy-side acquisition advisory
Independent judgment before you commit capital.
We help investors decide whether to buy a business, at what price and on what terms.
How we evaluate a deal
Four questions decide whether a deal earns your capital.
01
Earnings
Will the earnings hold under new ownership?
02
Price
What is the business worth to you, and what should you pay?
03
Structure
How should the deal be paid for, and how much capital will you need at closing?
04
Downside
What could break the deal, and what would it cost you?
