Company assessments
Business, activity area and client assessments. If you are planning to sell your activities or restructure your assets, we can assess your company using economic and financial methods.
Great value! At the right price!
The purchase or sale of a company requires expert assistance during the assessment stage, given the importance of the operation for both sellers and buyers. With a financial assessment of the company based on its financial statements, you will be in a position to open negotiations armed with information on the company’s theoretical value, calculated using financial assessment methods.
These company valuation methods, which are drawn from current financial theory, can be divided into four approaches. The first centres on the company’s asset value; the second takes account of the company’s performance; the third uses “mixed” methods, which encompass both asset and performance considerations, while the fourth group covers empirical or comparative methods..
Expert assistance will prove essential during a sale or acquisition, given the highly specific nature of company assessment. Your choice of approach will depend on the company’s circumstances and on the nature of the business; the assessment parameters will play a decisive role, such as specific macroeconomic data, company growth, economic adjustments, the company’s past and future investments, and company-specific risks connected to its business area and structure and sectorial risks.,…
It is important, though, to make the distinction between what we understand by a company’s value and its price; while a company’s financial value is based on a theoretical evaluation, its price is the result of a transaction between the buyer and the seller that reflects a number of objective and subjective considerations that arise during negotiations (opportunities, strategy, synergies that a buyer will take into consideration in assessing an investment, etc.) while also taking account of the impact of supply and demand on the price of the transaction.
COMPANY TRANSFERS
Due diligence
The takeover or sale of a company is an important operation that is often of strategic significance and which can frequently involve large sums. In such a situation, you will want prior information on the value of the company, on structural possibilities and on opportunities to optimise operations from a legal and tax-related perspective. The would-be buyer will also want a degree of assurance on the accuracy of the financial statements provided by the other party (due diligence), as well as information on the benefits of potential synergies and possible risks relating to the transaction. Operations of this kind consequently require an in-depth analysis of the company’s circumstances.
