How we can help

Transaction Execution, Accounting, Reporting & Integration

We guide companies through complex transactions, whether they're buying, selling, restructuring, or pursuing capital solutions. From strategy and valuation to performance assessment and strategic alternatives, we support you every step of the way—from negotiation to signing, closing, and beyond. Our deep analysis covers human capital, IT, and supply chain assets and processes, providing a comprehensive view of costs, growth potential, and risks. We help buyers and sellers validate financial assumptions, uncover synergies, and objectively assess areas of concern within financial models.

Valuation, Modeling, & Financial Advisory

We prepare you for Day 1 and beyond, helping to avoid overpaying and overestimating synergies. Our team identifies risks, validates value drivers, and recommends integration and separation considerations during diligence to set you up for long-term success. For transactions with carve-outs, we assist with TSAs, planning, and post-close management to ensure the restructured organization delivers expected value. With Grant Thornton's "one firm" approach, we connect pre-closing insights to our extensive Consulting team, augmenting your post-close efforts with specialized skills as needed.

Transaction Structuring and consulting

We partner with you to structure your deal and draft a purchase or sale agreement that enhances operational efficiency while minimizing tax liability. With a deep understanding of the complex tax implications of various deal structures, we collect and evaluate key data and assumptions to build an optimal solution. Leveraging our extensive experience and technical expertise, we consider critical factors such as purchase or sale price, enterprise value, asset tax basis, LLC interests, assumed liabilities, transaction costs, and working capital adjustments. Whether you're buying or selling an asset, we help you create a structure that’s precisely aligned with your objectives.
