Andrew Coates' Summary

Strategic Corporate Finance are specialists in corporate business sales, corporate acquisitions and management buyouts. Over recent years we have been awarded several dealmaker awards in recognition of our deal origination and deal execution expertise.

• Corporate Disposals

We provide a full corporate finance service to shareholders wishing to sell their companies. This involves identifying potential purchasers, writing a professional sale information memorandum, approaching potential purchasers and encouraging them to consider the acquisition opportunity, obtaining confidentiality undertakings, encouraging and obtaining offers, advising on the best offer, agreeing heads of terms and project managing the disposal through to a successful completion.

Our approach is based on detailed and thorough research, using subscription databases and other research tools to identify a “cherry picked” short-list of those potential purchasers most likely to put a good offer forward. Our efforts and our client’s efforts are therefore concentrated on those potential purchasers that are most likely to put a good offer “on the table”.

• Corporate Acquisitions

We provide a full corporate finance service to corporate clients wishing to grow through acquisitions.

We will find suitable acquisition targets using the same databases and research tools as when selling companies.

We make the initial approaches, value the target companies, negotiate commercial terms, raise the finance required and project manage the acquisition through to legal completion.

• Management buyouts

We provide a full corporate finance service to management teams wishing to acquire the companies that employ them. It is important to appoint us at the earliest stage so that we can negotiate a commercially sound deal and one that can be funded. We will raise the necessary finance and project manage the acquisition through to legal completion.

We are happy to act for international companies as well as UK clients.
