Strategic Planning for Acquisitions
As acquisitions can become a distraction to existing operations, so planning is essential. We work with clients to develop an appropriate plan and timeline for acquisition opportunities that will create value. This includes understanding the true financial means and operational strategies of the business to avoid adding undue constraint with the addition of any newly acquired business.
Financial Analysis, Valuation, and Negotiation
To properly assess the value of any transaction, it is important to use sound financial fundamentals in conjunction with business expertise. Inflection 360 works closely with our clients to make sure we properly look at an asset or business, not just from a financial standpoint, but also from an operational fit with the business. With the right assessment of value, clients will be able to know their max price (or walk away price), to avoid overpayment. Our team can also negotiate directly with the target to get a seller to say “yes”.
Target Identification and Pipeline Building
Inflection 360’s leadership has developed target pipelines for numerous businesses. After a comprehensive initial review of the target acquisition landscape, we can assist clients with fielding inquiries to move a deal forward.
Due Diligence
The devil is in the details, and we are experts at financial and operational due diligence. While no buyer can understand 100% of any acquisition target prior to a successful closing, we know the right questions, get the right information and work through the due diligence of these materials to give our clients the information they need to proceed with an acquisition.
Integration
Once a business is acquired, integration is critical and unique to each transaction. Continuing to run both the existing business while learning and operating the acquired business can be a challenge for any client. Our team can assist in developing an integration plan and to the extent needed, play an active role in the integration of the businesses.
