Business Acquisition & Disposition Advisory
Buying or selling a business is not just a tax-return event. We help analyze the economics, structure, cash needs, risks, tax consequences, and negotiation position.
Understand what you are really buying—or what you will actually keep.
Buyer-Side Underwriting
Normalize earnings, test add-backs, review working capital, debt service, CapEx, and downside cases.
Purchase Price & Capital
Evaluate supportable price, equity requirements, financing structure, and cash needs.
Tax Structure
Asset-vs-equity considerations, allocation, depreciation, basis, and future exit implications.
Disposition Planning
Expected proceeds, tax exposure, transaction costs, working-capital impacts, and seller economics.
Negotiation Support
Use economics, diligence findings, CapEx, and risk to support decision and negotiation strategy.
Decision Memo
Summarize facts, risks, economics, tax issues, open diligence items, and recommended next steps.
Price is only one part of the deal.
The same headline price can create very different outcomes depending on working capital, financing, tax allocation, CapEx, earnouts, seller notes, and post-closing obligations.
We do not replace deal counsel.
Our role is tax, economic, underwriting, and decision support. Purchase agreements, legal diligence, securities issues, and legal negotiation remain with qualified counsel.
If the transaction includes real property, see real-estate advisory. For seller tax modeling, see capital gains and disposition planning.
