Mergers & Acquisitions

Allow our professionals to Deliver on the Promise of tax benefits as you look to alter your business through the merger, acquisition or divestiture process.

If you plan to grow your business through the merger and acquisition process or if you are looking to divest an asset, allow our professionals to guide you. We have participated in hundreds of transactions totaling in excess of a billion dollars. You can meaningfully change your cash flow and return on investment with the best tax planning, and we understand what does and does not work. Our professionals combine years of business experience with proven methods of creating value and meeting the strategic objectives of mergers, acquisitions, and divestiture transactions.

The transaction - whether a merger, acquisition, or divestiture - should be structured to be as tax efficient as possible. Without proper tax planning, additional taxes may be incurred and, in some cases, may even cause a merger, acquisition, or divestiture to unravel and fail.

We help you consider the advantages and disadvantages in structuring the deal as a taxable or tax-free acquisition or divestiture. Our professionals also help you consider tax advantages through different financing methods, the allocation of purchase price, and how to amortize goodwill and other intangibles of the merger, acquisition or divestiture.

Mergers and Acquisitions

As you are looking to grow your business through the merger or acquisition process, the guidance of experienced professionals who have executed the process hundreds of times is invaluable as you identify and evaluate candidates. In building and growing their own public and private companies, our professionals have participated in hundreds of transactions totaling in excess of a billion dollars.

Divestitures

In order to complete a successful sale of all or part of your company, you must clearly define your objectives, determine the relationships among divisions and subsidiaries and analyze the dynamics of the marketplace. Other factors you may need to consider include succession planning considerations such as the transfer of your business to the next generation of your family or to a new management team.

Our professionals have years of invaluable experience executing all phases of the divestiture process including planning, structuring, locating purchasers, negotiating and closing transactions. This experience allows us to maximize your sale price while reducing your risk and meeting all of your objectives.

Our consultants assist your organization's mergers, acquisitions and divestiture needs. For more information, call Michael Minotti or
