BUYERS - making the right choice

At Morgan Heath we work with acquirers based throughout the UK. These range in size from local and regional buyers to large national consolidators. We like to work on a success only basis so if an acquirer meets with a selection of selling companies but does not result in buying any there is no fee. 

When it comes to buying or merging with a company there are a number of factors an acquirer has to consider.  Whether they are a national consolidator or small local buyer, we can break down the acquisition process and help direct an acquirer in the right direction. If required, we can manage the search and identification of prospective sellers and our experience will help ensure the business acquired accurately matches their growth strategy.

Various stages of the process are set out below:

We will need to understand the acquirer's business background, budget, acquisition criteria and structure as well as any acquisition history. This will allow us to promote the business to any suitable sellers. 

After finding out the criteria for the right type of business we will use our market knowledge and extensive database to identify a selection of selling companies that suit. We will also identify any companies that may be right to approach if they are not already on our books.  

Once a number of companies are identified, these will be short listed to the most suitable. These will then be presented to the acquirer in brief form before presenting the Information Memorandum on the companies selected.
