CORPORATE FINANCE
A SMOOTH & SUCCESSFUL TRANSACTION.
Whether you’re buying or selling a business, get the price right, minimise the tax bill and close the deal without fuss.
To do that, you need a team that will get to know you, your business, your industry and the key issues you face. Once we understand what you are trying to achieve, we will get to work. If you are selling, we can help you prepare your business for sale, maximising its sale price and realising the value you have built up in the business. Our tax advisors will minimise tax liabilities and we will find the right buyer at the right price. If you are looking for a business to buy, we can help you find the right business, with the right strategic fit at the right price.
Whether you are thinking of selling your business, expanding through merger or acquisition, planning a Management Buy Out or Management Buy In, our tailored, practical approach could determine the success of your venture. We have completed transactions across the UK for all sizes of business, within a wide range of sectors, and focus particularly on owner-managed business.
Our most recently completed transaction was the sale of Eden Veterinary Centre, a small animal practice in Carlise, and Border Vets, a mixed practice in Longtown, to Independent Vetcare. Bates Weston Corporate Finance advised the shareholders on the sale which involved a focused marketing process, deal negotiation and management of the transaction through to completion.
