Transaction Advisory Services
Successful mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures take vision and planning. Before you begin, it is important to know exactly what you want from the transaction you are contemplating.
Keiter guides businesses, private and public, in analyzing and coordinating all aspects of the transaction so that the results are most favorable.
The exact process will depend on your goals. We assist with the two phases of a transaction, 1.) Obtaining the value of the business and 2.) Structuring the transaction. Typically the business value is determined and funding requirements are identified. Due diligence is necessary whether you are a buyer, seller, or investor.
By working with you at an early stage, we are able to understand your business and help identify your needs. If you are a seller, we help you maximize the business’ value. If you are in the market to acquire, it is important to make sure the acquisition is a good fit for you and your organization.
We are also well-prepared to assist you with structuring a transition so that it is taxably efficient. This approach minimizes net cash outflows for a purchaser and maximizes net cash received by a seller after taxes.
Through our relationships with investment bankers we connect you with additional expertise in mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures. Our capital raising services include growth capital, private debt placement, private equity, and working capital and term financing.
