Strategic Transactions & Valuations exist to help our clients make better transaction decisions . Independent, arms length, critical advisory expertise – pre, during and post transaction. Our purpose is to: Bring expertise to private companies that traditionally was only accessible to large public companies with a large strategic management structure. To professionalise the analysis and deal making process. To remove the “gut feel”, “instinct” and often “ego driven” process of transactions. To provide rational and well argued arguments at the negotiating and deal making stages. ST&V work with clients to build a range of customised financial models that help facilitate the best transaction decisions. Such models could potentially incorporate: Revenue and expense projections by industry, by segment, by brand, by geography. CapEx, depreciation, working capital and leasing projections. Conversion of historical three financial statements into future cash flow forecasting models. Debt scheduling. Valuation models incorporating discounted forecasted cash flows. Valuation models integrating DCF with precedent transactions and trading multiples on public companies. Acquisition models assessing accretion or dilution. Pre and post merger valuation models with sensitivities, scenarios and synergy consideration. Post transaction earn out modelling. Other transaction possibilities – JV’s, partnerships, LBO’s , MBO’s.
