Deloitte Corporate Finance Norway
In Deloitte Corporate Finance, we provide M&A advisory to company owners, entrepreneurs and private equity clients. In close dialogue with our client, we handle every strategic, financial and tactical aspect of the process when either buying or selling a company.
We handle all the intensive workloads from the initial considerations to a successful sale
- Early Considerations
Reflections of a sale often arise from a shift in generations of the founding family or with the purpose of finding a partner to support future growth through experience and financial resources. An early dialogue helps to clarify motives and expectations for a potential sale. We assess the best possible exit strategy and design a customised process based on our client’s preferences.
- Internal Preparations
Preparing a company for a potential sale includes a discussion and review of business plan, growth opportunities and potential areas of improvement. This in close dialogue with both seller and management team. A thorough financial and commercial analysis can further strengthen the company in a transaction and is carried out in close collaboration with other advisers.
- Identification of Investors
The number of investors entering into dialogue within a sales process is based on a range of important considerations. We identify all relevant investors, both globally and locally, based on strategic fit, corporate culture, the ability to finance the investment, etc. Together, we decide on the appropriate strategy for a successful sale.
- Preparation of Sales Materials
The sales material is the first impression potential investors have of the company, which is why quality is essential. The material is prepared by us in close collaboration with the management team and highlights the key selling points of the company. Potential investors are provided sufficient information to submit indicative offers while ensuring that sensitive information is not exposed.
- Market
ContactWe handle all investor dialogues from the initial contact to the final negotiations. Essentially, it is important for the seller to connect with the relevant counterparties to discuss the future of the company. We prepare both seller and management team on relevant topics and make sure that they are well prepared for the dialogue.
- Negotiation and Final Agreement
We evaluate individual offers in close dialogue with our client and negotiate on their behalf. A successful sale is obtained when finding the best possible partner for the future journey of the company while securing an attractive price and favourable terms for the seller.
