Selling or merging a business

Fresh Accounting has worked with numerous business owners and businesses regarding selling or merging companies. We provide CFO services to support business owners and support managing the process.

We can participate in the initial conversations with a potential buyer to collate financial information for due diligence on behalf of the business owner.

Fresh offers a full service for the sales process or can provide specific help in certain areas as and when required. We have experience in managing the sale process.

We recognize there are specific needs of a seller, and a sale of a business may only happen once in a lifetime. With this in mind, it needs to be the right offer for the seller and the best price with the most negligible risks and the highest level of confidentiality.

Valuations

Fresh Accounting provides valuations for business owners and businesses. These valuations can be for internal purposes or companies looking to sell or merge.

Fairly often, these businesses do not have close comparable companies and therefore need particular skills. It is indeed as much art as science.

Valuations may be for different purposes. However, a business owner generally wants to know what is worth selling or merging the business.

There are numerous ways to value a business, generally the ‘discounted cash flow’ method and more straightforward ways, such as comparable company analysis.

However, there is limited information about similar transactions for SMEs as for publicly listed companies.

Valuations have become an art rather than a science, and many assumptions are needed to arrive at a valuation. Fresh can review the best options with you and discuss in detail how the valuation has been built and what factors could affect the valuation.

Management reporting

Growing a business is never an easy task. However, with the meaningful management reports that our experienced CFOs provide you, it will make your decision-making process more efficient and painless. It not only accelerates your business growth but also ensures that the company is future-proof.
