Acquisitions

RSM Farrell Grant Sparks has a proven track record in achieving value for clients in acquisitions and closing deals successfully.

We help clients to buy other businesses, providing advice and support throughout the purchase process. We can manage all stages of the acquisitions process, including:

• An independent objective assessment of the strategy behind the decision to buy
• Identification of suitable targets
• Checking the target in terms of accounts, financial position, management, markets, reliability of information
• Background and reputation checks – our contacts throughout the RSM International network can be a major help if the target is an overseas company
• Advice on buying or whether, for example, a merger would be a more appropriate solution
• Focusing on the core issues which are material to successful achievement of your investment and business objectives
• Advice on how to structure the deal and add value
• Negotiating with potential targets
• Closing the deal successfully

Experience and expertise

We have a strong understanding and experience of the acquisition process, and extensive knowledge of the Irish market. Our partners have built up a network of contacts over many years, and this network benefits from the entrepreneurial nature and backgrounds of many of our partners.

Our corporate finance team will be aware of possible businesses for sale, and will also be aware through our insolvency team of distressed sales. In addition, as the Irish member firm of the RSM International network, we have access to further potential buyers and sellers outside Ireland.
