Adding value to your transaction!
We Can Help
Hawsons has a dedicated Corporate Finance Department which provides specialist services to our clients so that the risk associated with a particular transaction is effectively managed.
Locally
We are a leading independent practice, with extensive knowledge of the local market economy. We will bring this experience to your transaction, as detailed in the recent deals below.
Internationally
As a member of Praxity we have access to a network of corporate finance offices throughout the UK and internationally. This network is available to provide assistance on cross border transactions and is a useful source of information, including acquisition and disposal opportunities.
We seek to add commercial value to your transaction by bringing to bear a wealth of practical experience and technical
skills, working closely with you to successfully complete the transaction.
A brief overview of the services we provide:
Due Diligence Investigations
We adopt a risk-based approach to due diligence investigations so that our work is directed to those areas that are considered to be high risk. The output of our work is a focussed report that addresses the issues that are relevant to the investor.
Management Buy-outs/Buy-Ins
Buy-outs tend to be once in a lifetime transactions for the managers concerned, and they are unlikely to have experienced the issues associated with such a transaction. We have advised on numerous buy-outs and are able to bring this experience to your particular situation.
Acquisition Advice
Growth by acquisition continues to be an attractive option for ambitious businesses. We provide practical transaction advice throughout the process, starting from a strategic review of acquisition targets through to post-acquisition integration.
Business Disposals
Our role in the disposal process is to manage the transaction on your behalf so that the best possible terms are
achieved for you. We have a considerable amount of research material available to us and can assist in the identification
of an appropriate buyer. We will present your business in a professional manner and negotiate the best price and terms for
you. We provide proactive advice on commercial and tax issues.
Access to funds in order to finance acquisitions and expansion is a key feature of the growth and development of a
business. We are aware of the alternative sources of finance that are available and are well known to the providers
of venture capital, development capital, project finance and working capital. We can assist in the preparation of
financial forecasts and business plans and present these to potential funders on your behalf.
Share and Business Valuations
Valuations are often required as part of a corporate finance transaction or for taxation purposes. Our specialists have
extensive experience of valuing shares and businesses on both a commercial and taxation basis.
Taxation
Tax planning and the effective structuring of a transaction from a tax perspective is an important aspect of any
transaction. We have dedicated tax specialists who provide first class advice, so that the tax burden on a transaction,
both corporate and personal, is minimised.
