You want to... Acquire, merge or take over a company
Buying a business can be more advantageous than starting a new one.
These advantages include :
- Established clientele;
- Viability of model business;
- Availability of an operating history enabling more accurate forecasting of the funds generated by the company;
- Easier to organize financing.
Nevertheless, it is important to follow a process analysis before making a formal offer to purchase.
The major elements to be considered in this process are as follows:
- Determine how this acquisition action brings synergy with your other company(ies) and/or how your expertise and experience could bring the target company to the desired level.
- Evaluate the position of the business you're interested in (market, finances, asset condition, location, etc.) and determine your objectives.
- Assess the true value of this acquisition and the right price to offer.
- Determine the strategy financing.
We strongly encourage you to seek the support and advice of one of our advisors (accountants, tax specialists, lawyers, business valuators, etc.) to minimize costs.
Call on the services of SADC from the very beginning of the process, in complete confidentiality. Depending on your needs, we will guide you and, with your agreement, involve various experts in support such as the experts at the Transfer d'Entreprises du Québec (CTEQ).
