Exit Planning
Many of us put off planning for retirement - in the same way we
put off writing a will!
If you want to achieve your ambitions for your business - whether
that is maximising the value of the business in a sale, or making
sure that the team who helped you build the business are protected,
you need to take steps to achieve those ambitions.
The trick here is to take a step back from the business and see
it through the eyes of the acquirer or investor, identifying the
strengths and weaknesses. When you know where you are, you can map a
route to get to your destination.
Assessment and Valuation
Over the years we have developed a structured questionnaire that
helps us assess a business from the acquirers perspective. We
combine this with financial measurements to estimate a current
market value for the business.
We can then provide you with a report that highlights those key
strengths that would attract an acquirer, and equally will suggest
areas for improvement.
Acquirers will be nervous of recent changes to the structure or
performance of the business, so you want to have completed these at
least 2 years prior to commencing the sale process -
it is never too early to start!
