Mergers & Acquisitions Modelling

Achieve Corporation act as either the buy or sell side advisors on corporate transitions. This experience in a dual role gives us a valuable insight into the metrics, thought process and modelling needed to successfully plan the financial aspects of a merger or acquisition.

Our modelling can be used as either a:

  • Pitch deck to seek funding for a project
  • Back up financials for sign off at Board level planning committee
  • Feasibility studies to highlight potential financial synergies on acquiring targets in either a horizontal or vertical sector

The Achieve Corporation M&A modelling includes:

  • Acquirer & Target Models – Map financials, 3-statement model, discounted cash flow model
  • Deal Assumptions – Inputs, synergies, financing, value added and goodwill
  • Accretion/Dilution – Pro forma per share metrics
  • Closing Balance Sheet – Acquirer + target, adjustments, goodwill and pro forma
  • Sensitivity Analysis – Intrinsic value per share, ROE, ROI, changes in assumptions
  • Pro Forma Model – Combination of synergies, 3-statement model, Discounted Cash Flow  

For a discussion in the strictest confidence about the benefits of our M&A model, please contact Mark Roberts Senior Partner at Mark@achieve-corproation.com

UK Ramps Up Powers To Block Foreign Takeover Deals
