Mergers, acquisitions and restructuring
We advise sellers and buyers in SME transactions as part of ONEtoONE Corporate Finance's international network. We prepare the deal, find the counterparty in Finland or abroad and support you through negotiations to signing.
When you are selling
- Preparation for sale. Figures, reporting and risks in order before a buyer looks at them.
- Valuation and price target. A realistic value with reasoning that holds up to buyers' questions.
- Sales material. An anonymous teaser and a detailed information memorandum.
- Buyer search. Trade buyers and investors in Finland and, through ONEtoONE, abroad.
- Negotiation and closing. Comparing offers, managing due diligence and support up to the purchase agreement.
When you are buying
- Target search. Identifying and approaching companies that fit your strategy.
- Valuation and offer. A justified price and offer structure, such as an earn-out.
- Due diligence and financing. Financial review and planning of the financing structure.
Restructuring
Mergers, demergers and ownership arrangements: calculations, plans and timetable for Finnish limited companies.
Questions about M&A
How long does selling a company take?
A typical sale process takes several months from preparation to signing, often six to twelve months. Careful preparation shortens negotiations and reduces price cuts at due diligence.
How is the advisor's fee structured?
The fee structure is agreed per engagement. A common model combines a fixed component with a success fee tied to completion. You receive a proposal after the initial review.
Can a sale be kept confidential?
Yes. Potential buyers are approached with an anonymous teaser, and identifying information is shared only with parties that have signed a non-disclosure agreement.
Can you help foreign buyers acquire a Finnish company?
Yes. We can identify Finnish targets, carry out financial due diligence and valuation, and support the process locally, in cooperation with the ONEtoONE network.
