Selling a business
Your route to exit
Planning an exit? Tax is not the only thing to consider to achieve the best commercial outcome and value. Our route to exit for a private capital business highlights the commercial, financial and tax matters you’ll need to work through as you plan an exit transaction.
A successful exit strategy also requires a well-planned sell-side process. Our sell-side advisory services specialists can guide your business through the crucial stages, from portfolio strategy to deal execution.
Buying a business
Acquisition strategies
Every business is different, so solutions must be tailored to your business. As part of our buy-side advisory services, we can advise you on appropriate, tax-efficient structuring strategies to meet your commercial objectives.
Due diligence
As experts in assessing tax filing positions and the tax treatments adopted by your target business, we will apply sector and technical insight to identify tax governance risks, exposures and opportunities.
Private equity
As expert advisers to private equity investors, we specialise in structuring investments and securing funding for portfolio companies. Our specialists can strategically optimise the portfolio’s tax position throughout its lifecycle to ensure it meets its tax compliance obligations and that it remains exit-ready from a tax perspective.
Re-orgs & reconstructions
Reorganising your business may be the best way to meet your commercial goals. We can advise on the most tax-efficient way to carry out the reorganisation.
We can help you:
- create pragmatic, commercial solutions to prepare a non-core business for sale;
- simplify your corporate structure; and
- restructure debt as part of a turnaround strategy.
What our clients say
'I am thrilled Celadon Pharmaceuticals has been admitted to AIM today. We are delighted to reach this initial milestone, particularly given the underlying global market backdrop, which is testament to the dedication and strength of support from all of our loyal shareholders, new investors, advisers and employees for making this happen. The RSM team have been instrumental in supporting us in achieving this listing and have delivered across the board on all of the audit, reporting accountant and transaction services workstreams. We very much look forward to continuing and developing that relationship as a listed company and would wholehearted recommend the RSM team for any other companies embarking on this process.'
