Relevant client experience
Clear scope and pricing

Pricing Context
Fees vary by complexity, record quality, deadlines, and whether you need recurring support or one-off advice.
Compliance Context
Ask what records are needed, who is responsible for submissions, and how the firm confirms deadlines and filing evidence.
Mergers & Acquisitions FAQs
What is the difference between a share sale and an asset sale?
In a share sale, the buyer acquires the company's shares (and all assets and liabilities). In an asset sale, the buyer cherry-picks specific assets. Share sales are generally more tax-efficient for sellers (CGT with BADR), while asset sales give buyers more control over what they acquire.
What does financial due diligence cover?
Due diligence typically examines historical financial performance, quality of earnings, working capital normalisation, net debt analysis, contingent liabilities, tax compliance history, key contract terms, and the reliability of financial projections.
How is a business valued?
Common methods include multiples of EBITDA (most common for SMEs), discounted cash flow analysis, asset-based valuations, and comparable transaction analysis. The appropriate method depends on the business type, size, and industry norms.
