Buy-Side
Synxronos works with strategic and private equity buyers
who are seeking to fulfill a strategic objective through a single or
series of acquisitions:
Synxronos' approach to these acquisitions includes:
- An assessment of the client's strategy to ensure that is consistent with its goals and market realities.
- Compilation of acquisition candidates based on industry contacts, industry knowledge and primary and secondary market research.
- Screening and prioritization of these candidates based on the client's strategic, financial and management requirements.
- Direct contact with the preferred candidates to better understand their business with respect to customers and markets, technologies, operations and financials.
- Development of financial models in order to come to a valuation.
- Preparation of Letter of Intent.
When a Letter of Intent is accepted, Synxronos continues to work closely with the client through the due diligence and negotiating phases of the process, up to and including closing.
A major benefit of this process is that it is proactive. As a result, a client is often able to identify and acquire a company that was not initially for sale. The two key benefits of this are that a) the client is able to acquire the company at a discount to what would ordinarily be the price if the candidate was actively selling its business and b) proprietary and confidential information about the candidate is not widely available to competitors.
