OUR WORK
M&A Judgement Augmentation
Providing an independent review of the investment case alongside the formal due diligence process. Acting as an adviser to the buyer, challenging the key commercial assumptions to provide an additional layer of confidence prior to investment.
Background
A prospective acquirer engaged Stratenium to provide an independent review of the investment case alongside the formal due diligence process. Acting as an adviser to the buyer, we provided an operator-informed perspective to challenge key commercial assumptions and strengthen management's confidence before proceeding with the transaction.
Our Approach
Independent Commercial Review
Reviewed the findings of the appointed due diligence advisers through an operator's lens, assessing whether the commercial conclusions accurately reflected the realities of the business and industry.
Investment Case Validation
Challenged the underlying assumptions supporting the investment case, including revenue projections, underlying revenue run rates and the sustainability of future growth.
Customer & Contract Assessment
Supplemented the formal due diligence process with independent market validation, drawing on trusted industry relationships and operator insights to assess customer and supplier dynamics, commercial positioning and broader market sentiments. This provided the buyer with an additional perspective beyond the information presented during the transaction process.
Outcome
Delivered a simplified product portfolio supported by a sustainable governance framework, improving operational efficiency, enhancing reporting accuracy and providing a stronger foundation for future product development.
