Over many intensive years of hard work you have successfully built up your own company. But even if you recently tempted to stop the march of time, you noticed that retirement is slowly becoming an issue. You might want to spend more time now with family and hobbies and you realize that life has so much more to offer. Practice shows that in most of the successor transactions solutions are not being found within the domestic circle.

The question that keeps you busy though is who eventually should takeover your legacy and how to make sure that you get an adequate sum of money for it. Well, we know by experience that the search for a suitable successor is an activity that requires a consequent and persistent approach. Our clients rely upon our network and contacts, since we’ve been there and we’ve done that before.

Our international database and network offer many highly qualified aspirant entrepreneurs and management teams, but also investment groups with the financial resources essential for successor transactions.  With greatest certainty there is someone waiting out there who seeks to takeover your firm with the required proficiency, with care and dedication. Complementary to the people issue, we meticulously execute a number of activities to smoothen the way for a successful hand over. For this purpose we need to put your company into the most favorable position. This endeavor starts with a valuation process based on analytical approach and our inside knowledge of the transaction market. Our valuation includes - among others - the assessment of:

Your company's strategic position with respect to market growth

Your company’s domestic and or international competitive position (SWOT)

Your company’s operative position concerning investment requirements

The assets and intangibles of your organization including undisclosed reserves

Quantification of your strengths & potential synergies in case of a takeover or merger

The development and execution of our financial valuation models comprises of educing terminal values, the conduct of discounted cash flow calculations, but also the execution of valuation comparisons to peer groups, to listed companies and to transaction multiples of similar transactions.

Our domestic or international search for successors also includes the definition of target groups and individuals (or entities), research in extended national and international databases, professional approach to target entrepreneurs, consequent follow-up of leads, or if desired a dedicated search for management teams and if required the generation of business alternatives.

The successor transaction process needs to be executed in a timely fashion and should not be prolonged too much, since the window of opportunity is mostly short lived in which successor and seller both are willing to close a deal based on agreed conditions. We therefore develop an attractive investment proposition that will be represented along with a logical equity history and financial plan, supported by a compelling market focused and state-of-the-art presentation to potential successors.
