I found Prism Corporate Broking a great help in making this first acquisition. Prism identified a number of suitable acquisition targets, qualified them and then made the first critical approach. This, coming from a third party, made it feel less threatening to the vendors and gave greater flexibility to our negotiating position throughout the transaction. We received no nonsense advice and are now working together on the next one!

“My overriding criterion for making a choice is what is in the best interest of our company as a whole. It is no longer just about a “gut feel” – it is about analysis that backs up the emotions. Such analysis has not only to be objective, grounded in facts and figures, but also to be in tune with the entrepreneur’s own feelings. The Prism Options Review did just that for me – it provided a simple but clear analysis of the industry, the competitors and future prospects in the market along with financial options of MBO, MBI, organic growth, mergers and acquisitions artfully woven into the fabric of the company’s vision, mission, history and shareholding!”

Certain financial information will be required, which is likely to include:
Following the meeting Prism will investigate the market, saleability of the business, and assess each option with a recommendation. A report will be produced which will contain:
The report will be discussed at another meeting.
The Options review is a very sensible and cost effective first step when assessing an exit route.
