Company takeovers are a complex process involving many challenges – time pressure, the need to analyse large amounts of data, high risk.

However, if acquisition is carried out properly, it allows you to get ahead of the competition and achieve business goals faster than through natural growth.

How does the cooperation work?

We start each project by gaining a thorough understanding of the client’s goals and expectations. Based on this, we propose the optimal scope of support and prepare a tailor-made action plan.

Our experts actively manage the takeover process, staying in constant contact with the customer and reporting on progress.

Depending on the sector, company size, geographical area, industry and market situation, this can take from six months up to several years.

This type of collaboration is charged as follows:

  • success fee
  • fees for the necessary activities to carry out the process correctly (e.g. fee for strategy preparation, for letters of intent, submission of offers, company research, preparation for conclusion of the transaction, transaction, integration phase 

During the consultation, we will establish the basic parameters and provide you with a preliminary cost estimate.

FAQ

The average process takes 9-15 months. It consists of:

  • Search and initial selection: 3-4 months
  • Due diligence and negotiations: 3-6 months
  • Transaction completion: 2-3 months 

The process may take longer for international transactions or in regulated industries.

We use a 4-step analysis:

  • Preliminary verification (strategic and financial fit)
  • Detailed operational due diligence
  • Financial and legal audit
  • Analysis of synergies and integration risks

We can stop the process at any stage if we identify significant risks.

The main problems are: 

  • Overestimated financial forecasts
  • Hidden liabilities
  • Unsecured claims
  • Overestimated synergy potential

That is why we always verify the seller’s assumptions with our own evaluation methods.

The comprehensive survey covers: 
  

  • Financial and tax analysis
  • Legal and regulatory overview
  • Operational and technical audit
  • Human resources verification
  • Market and competition research
  • Cybersecurity analysis

We customise the scope to the industry and size of the transaction.

We apply several mechanisms: 
  

  • Multi-variant pricing
  • Earn-out (payment dependent on results)
  • Seller’s warranties
  • A detailed analysis of synergies

In addition, we negotiate with several targets simultaneously, which gives us a better negotiating position.

We assist in structuring financing through:

  • Acquisition loans
  • Finansowanie typu mezzanine 
  • Private equity 
  • Bond issues

We also advise on the optimal financing structure, taking into account the buyer’s situation.

We rely on proven methods: 

  • Retention programme for key employees
  • Results-based incentive programmes
  • Internal communication plan
  • A clear integration strategy

We plan everything before finalising the transaction.

We take a methodical approach: 

  • Strategic scoring (matching with strategy)
  • Financial analysis (growth potential)
  • Feasibility check (integration options)
  • Comparison of alternatives (other objectives or organic growth)

We make decisions based on hard data, not intuition.

We support integration through: 

  1. Detailed plan for the first 100 days
  2. Mapping and connecting processes
  3. Identification and realisation of synergies
  4. Change and communication management
  5. Monitoring of target achievement

Integration is crucial for the success of a transaction, which is why we plan it as early as the due diligence stage.

We have prepared scenarios: 

  • Renegotiation of transaction conditions
  • Modifying the transaction structure
  • Pausing the process
  • Proceed to alternative target

We always have a plan B and work on several options at the same time.
