"Mergers & Acquisitions in Practice"

For company shareholders and management, achieving an increase in value by selling off company shares or the entire company is a key strategic option. Similarly however, the company's own acquisitions can also form part of its growth strategy.

With the current positive economic developments and the corresponding increase in business valuations, entrepreneurs are again asking themselves:  

What would a company be worth today, or in the future after it achieves its projected targets?

What would the optimal transaction structure look like?

What is the best way to prepare for due diligence?

What would be the best strategy and timing for mergers and acquisitions in volatile times?

Based on our current experiences as an M&A consultant, we can inform you that favourable market conditions for mergers and acquisitions are once again in place. Thanks to these favourable economic conditions, buyers and sellers can enjoy a good balance of risks and returns in mergers and acquisitions.

We can note that sellers are using earn-out arrangements which extend into the new growth phase to secure a higher purchase price. The seminar demonstrates how to optimize future proceeds from sales (and thus also the purchase price) by means of active preparation.

The optimal arrangement for the process will be explained with practical accounts: from initial contact to signing. This day-seminar will provide you with conceptual expertise for designing your merger/acquisition, and thus also the knowledge required to negotiate with interested buyers, partners or competitors.
