M&A Advisory
The right buyer

Finding the right buyer: selling a company with NETWORK

NETWORK verfügt über ein sehr gut gepflegtes und breit aufgestelltes Netzwerk an strategischen Käufern und Finanzinvestoren. Abhängig von den persönlichen Transaktionszielen unserer Mandanten recherchieren wir in den relevanten Märkten sowie in unserem Netzwerk und stimmen die im Rahmen des M&A-Prozesses identifizierten potenziellen Käufer mit Ihnen ab. Im Anschluss übernehmen wir die gezielte Käuferansprache und beziehen die interessierten, in Frage kommenden Player in den Transaktionsprozess mit ein. Als potenzielle Käufer kommen sowohl strategische Investoren als auch Finanzinvestoren in Frage.

NETWORK will support in your search for a company successor, a financial partner for a management buy-out or a strategic buyer.

Strategic buyers

Strategic buyers are direct competitors, similarly, positioned companies with a different geographical focus, companies with a complementary range of services or manufacturers that are upstream or downstream in the value chain. There are different acquisition motives for strategic buyers: expansion of the own product or service portfolio, strategic diversification or market entry into a specific region or sub-market. Strategic acquisitions can justify a higher purchase price, with the buyer and seller sharing the resulting benefits from a merger of the two companies.
