Private equity team knowledge
Because issues arise during due diligence that can derail a transaction, we work quickly to identify and resolve them early in the process. Are the company’s earnings levels real and sustainable? What is a reasonable working capital threshold? Is the tax accounting method used by the target company sustainable on examination by the IRS and could it be changed to reduce the tax on the transaction or when operating the business? We closely look at a variety of areas that can affect the outcome of your transaction, such as tax structures, people issues, outstanding litigation, multiple businesses and debt. It’s not only what you see, but also what you don’t see that can make all the difference.
Our experienced professionals know the technical aspects of purchase accounting. They understand the accounting and tax issues surrounding the complex capital structures common in the private equity arena.
Huge opportunities may exist overseas and we understand your need to know the risks. We’ll work with our worldwide network of offices to bring you specialized international expertise and services when needed.
Whatever the areas of concern, we understand that due diligence must be done fast and accurately to make a transaction happen. If you call today, you need to know your team will respond to you that same day. We stand ready to work quickly and provide the level of service you often find missing in other firms.
