Buying a business

PEMCF can help businesses looking to grow through acquisition.  We work closely with our clients from start to finish, initially understanding your business and acquisition criteria.  We are experienced at identifying suitable acquisition targets using our extensive in-house research facilities.

We help with initial contacts and will have a meaningful, yet confidential, dialogue with vendors to assess appetite for a deal.  Assuming there is interest we will help to negotiate a favourable deal price and terms.

We also help to raise finance for the acquisition.  To facilitate this we help write a fundraising document and work with you to prepare required financial projections.  We are able to introduce and negotiate with financial backers with the aim of getting the right amount of finance on the best overall terms.  We will project manage due diligence, legal and tax work through to completion.

Please refer to our deals section for details of acquisitions which we have been involved in.

If required, PEMCF are also experienced at conducting financial due diligence both for corporate acquirers and the leading commercial banks.
