Non Financial Due Diligence
Non-Financial Due Diligence is our unique process which reviews the people, systems and marketing operations of a business, as part of the mergers and acquisition process. This is in addition to the traditional financial due diligence which must still be taken.
Paying the right price
Before negotiating to purchase a company, non-financial diligence will help you know whether you are paying the right price and give you a better idea how the company might perform in the future.
Non-financial due diligence can also help a purchaser reduce the acquisition offer price.
What non-financial due diligence reveals
The Non-Financial Due Diligence process shows you more than just the financial information for the business. It shows you beneath the water line, providing you with a qualitative overview of the business future performance complementing financial data analysis that reveals more of a current and historical view.
The review focuses on these 5 core areas:
a. STRUCTURE
b. COMPETITIVE EDGE
c. BRAND HEALTH AND REPUTATION
d. OVERSEAS MARKET ENTRY POSITIONING
e. TEST SELLING AND TEST MARKETING
Of course, no M&A is the same. Alongside your Corporate Finance team or management, we can tailor make the on site visit(s) agendas in line with your specific target objectives.
