"Regent ran a tight process. Their initial research provided a good selection of high quality interested parties. They consistently provided us with high quality and reasoned advice and were thoroughly professional, adding value throughout the sale process and being on hand for support whenever we needed them. They provided a clear analysis of the various offers received and valuable advice on how best to negotiate the right deal. We are delighted with the result.”

Company Sale
We assist entrepreneurs and investors to realize exits. By examining your company and the objectives of its management and shareholders we can advise you as to the practical possibilities of realizing full value with minimal disruption. If you decide to proceed, we will use our knowledge of the market and specialist research skills to define the sales proposition and advise on actions to maximize the value of the business.
We will utilize our proprietary databases to draw up a list of strategic buyers that fulfill your requirements. Once the preferred partners have been selected, we will establish contact with appropriate companies at the highest level and when qualified, make the introduction. Our team will create a market to establish the premium valuation, manage the negotiation process and complete the transaction smoothly.
The process consists of seven main activities:
- Preparation of Information Memorandum
We work with you to prepare a confidential business review for presentation to potential buyers or investors.
- Identification of Potential Partners
Using our knowledge of the market and our proprietary databases, a short-list of suitable partners is drawn up and discussed prior to approaches being initiated.
- Confidentiality
Safeguarding the confidentiality of the process is a high priority. Potential partners are initially approached with anonymous, summary information only. If serious interest is expressed, a Non-Disclosure Agreement must be executed before the potential partners learns the identity of the company for sale and receives any confidential information.
- Arranging Introductions
We make introductions to a suitable number of companies and enter into detailed discussions with one or more interested parties.
- Managing Negotiations
We advise on the merits of various proposals and provide continuing assistance on the optimum structure of the agreement.
- Co-ordination of Information Requests
We coordinate the assembly of the due diligence information, both to speed up the final phases of the transaction and to eliminate any problems in advance.
- Management of the Contract Process
We work closely with your legal advisors to formulate the relevant Purchase and Sale agreement and conclude a satisfactory transaction.
