Preparing For The Sale

 

It's essential to be clear about the objectives of the transaction, and the timescale in which it has to be completed. Often there's a trade-off between achieving a quick sale and increasing proceeds. To get the best price, the business should be prepared for the sale. This might include ensuring that it is capable of operating as a stand-alone entity, and that any barriers to unlocking value have been removed.

A key objective is to structure the business so that the sale increases the vendor's tax position while retaining the flexibility to accommodate different purchasers. Restructuring could also create significant commercial or tax advantages for prospective buyers; this means they are prepared to pay more.. The key is to identify changes that can be implemented quickly, that could increase the value of the business from the buyer's point of view.
