Work Methods –
Selling a Company

   
     
     
There are different reasons for selling a company, wholly or in part, here are some examples: Illness or death of the entrepreneur, lack of funds to finance growth, size-related disadvantages in purchasing, a lack of entrepreneurial succession, disunity on the shareholder level, dissolution of the shareholder structure, strategic reasons for consolidation or fusion, or simply the desire to transform substance into liquidity. For a planned sale – at least for a larger sale – we proceed according to the following structure:

1. Identification of an optimal time frame
2. Selecting and approaching the potential purchasers
3. Drawing up an initial letter, the non-disclosure agreement, and creating the corporate presentation

 

  4. Signing a declaration of intent and submission of an initial offer from the potential customer
5. Making presentations in the company
6. Creating a data room for the detailed information required by the purchaser
7. Negotiating a binding offer
8. Contract negotiations
9. Signature, transfer of ownership, possibly clarification of the further management of the company
10. Post-acquisition phase

In parallel the (social) environment of the enterprise must always be positively influenced. We actively support you in this area as well.
