vcfo's M&A Transaction Services

Sell-Side Support

Being ready for an M&A transaction before you get the call is critical for a smooth process and can make a significant difference in the strength of your position in the negotiation process.  vcfo assists companies who are targets or desire to be targets of acquisitions to prepare for a smooth, efficient and optimally valued transaction. 

Overview:
vcfo will use our team of M&A experts with deep industry expertise to establish key areas of focus in order to manage the due diligence process as well as a smooth acquisition transition.  We focus not only on financial infrastructure, reporting and controls, but also on value differentiators that will affect final value.  This process ensures that addressable issues are identified and resolved early so they do not derail prospective acquirers or put a client in a defensive negotiation position.

The vcfo team will focus on ensuring that the key value drivers of a transaction are identified, clear of issues and ready for a thorough due diligence process.  Our process can make a significant difference in value for the selling shareholders and may help to reduce the amount of required reserves for financial, business or legal risks. Our approach includes a detailed significant focus on the numbers as well as business and operational reviews. 

Approach and Timing:
vcfo assigns appropriate professionals to the client project based on background and experience.  Team members will include CFOs, M&A experts, Controllers and Analysts.

Fees:
A budget is agreed upon in advance for all engagements.  Clients may need to change the scope or duration of a project depending upon the results of diligence.  vcfo can adapt with the needs of the client and will work with the client to review, in advance, changes in scope impacting the timeline.
