Business Acquisitions: On the Rise
By Mark B. Bober, CPA, ABV, CFF, CVA, partner
Mergers and acquisitions have become critical instruments for companies of all sizes as they seek to acquire new capabilities and enter new markets. We have observed an increase in inquiries with respect to acquisitions as companies look to expand in the shadows of last year’s recession, and in particular look to take advantage of more reasonable valuations that they expect to see in the marketplace. As a result, they often require the use of resources outside the normal flow of operations. The critical need to focus a high degree of technical proficiency across business, tax and accounting disciplines, and to do so within a prompt response timeframe, is a challenge under the best of circumstances.
BMF has the resources and experience to manage or provide support throughout the acquisition process with the available resources to provide essential pre-acquisition planning support, perform a full range of financial and tax due diligence procedures, and maximize the value of the acquired business by participating in the planning and implementation of the integration plan for the target company. We have assisted clients in merger and acquisition planning, implementation and post-transaction transition activities, including:
- Acquisition strategy development
- Pre-acquisition due diligence
- Quality of earnings assessments
- Target valuation
- Deal structuring
- Transition management
- Post-acquisition integration
- Post-acquisition tax services
- Outsourcing of internal accounting and finance functions
