The challenges in M&A: when experience matters
Facing an M&A transaction presents unique challenges, such as properly determining the value of a company, favorably negotiating the relevant terms of the transaction, understanding the fiscal and financial implications, managing time and information efficiently, and recognizing the crucial indicators for the success of the transaction.
But it is also important to have an adequate perspective of the environment, to understand what is happening in the sector, and with other buyers and sellers, what are the Drivers of valuation and the opportunities offered by the market. Mergers and acquisitions are crucial moments in the life of a company and expert advice on this point is essential.
Realistic valuation expectations
If the seller or buyer has unrealistic expectations about the value of the firm, the M&A process is likely to result in a waste of time, energy and costs. Expert advice can help ensure that the best price is obtained for the sale of a company and provide comparable and realistic valuation expectations that facilitate the agreement.
Smooth, frictionless process
It is crucial to identify which elements require detailed negotiation and where greater flexibility can be shown, as well as to approach the process methodically and not to rush, considering every detail step by step, avoiding falling into the factors that may jeopardize the agreement.
Keeping the focus on the business
M&A processes can divert the attention and time of the management team. However, it is a priority that management continues to operate the business normally and that any potential variation in valuation throughout the process is positive. That's why it's vital to have an experienced advisor who can manage the process and minimize the involvement of the management team and owners.
We chart a safe and controlled course towards the success of the operation.
Generally, a transaction of this nature can take between six months and a year to close.
It is essential to identify which elements require detailed negotiation and where greater flexibility can be shown. In the same way, approaching the process methodically and not rushing, considering every detail step by step helps to avoid falling into the factors that may jeopardize the agreement:
A committed partner every step of the way.
We recognize that no two companies are the same. Each company we work with has different distribution, financing and operating models.
We understand, that any relationship is about people. This is why we adopt a boutique approach that, beyond the transaction, focuses on the client's strategy, objectives and positioning. We understand their true goals and sometimes help them decide what they should be.
The diversity of our experience allows us to assemble the best consulting team for each client, ensuring a comprehensive approach and exhaustive follow-up that positively influences results.
This philosophy is reflected in the constant dedication of an expert consultant who works hand in hand with the same client, providing greater clarity and cohesion at every stage of the process. This allows us to be more agile, anticipate needs and act with precision, managing to accelerate transactions without interfering with the daily pace of the business.
In addition, by being integrated into the company's dynamics and vision, we can identify and avoid hasty financial decisions that could divert us from the path to success.
In essence, our methodology ensures efficient management and an aligned vision that protects and enhances the value of your company.

Our M&A Services
Lines of action
The prospect of a sale undoubtedly raises questions about the company's future. It is crucial to approach this stage with clarity and confidence, making sure that every decision favors the business.
From the moment we show strong interest, our success rate in dealing with a buyer is high, at 50% on average. In addition, because our advisors have experience in a wide variety of sectors, we often have direct access to strategic buyers who may often be willing to pay a higher price for companies that are a great fit for their development strategy.
At NORGESTION, we support companies on this journey. We strive to help business owners in the Middle Market and corporations to materialize their exit strategies, providing transaction advisory services that add value.
We value the importance of human capital and ensure consistent transitions. With rigorous protocols, we protect essential information. Our support allows the property to focus on the strategic vision, optimizing time and resources throughout the M&A process.
Our passion for closing favorable deals is what drives us and is reflected in everything we say and do. Always with a strict sense of commitment, honesty and integrity in defending the interests of our clients.
Owners often have a general idea of the value of their business, however, in the area of valuations, discrepancies often arise.
Understanding the real value of a company encompasses a process that transcends numbers. It requires in-depth analysis that merges tangible and intangible assets, future projections and market position.
This process involves a detailed analysis of the structure, assets and potential of the business, including its historical, current and future flows.
It should be remembered that value and price do not necessarily match. It is one thing to try to determine a market value attributable to a business, and quite another thing to establish a price that responds to an agreement between buyer and seller to carry out a transaction based on a negotiation process subject to a series of circumstances and facts that may alter the differences between the value and the agreed price.
With a comprehensive vision, we approach this process with the utmost confidentiality and efficiency, always focused on maximizing the value of the company.
The reasons for buying a company can be many and very varied.
Without wishing to be exhaustive, but transferring our experience over all these years, we could highlight the following: The advantages linked to size and growth, strengthening market presence by integrating a competitor, access to new markets (national or international), the expansion of the product range, reasons linked to social, political or legal changes that may justify considering the acquisition of companies for reasons of diversification and growth, the acquisition of technology avoiding costs learning and reducing response time in the market, vertical integration through the purchase of a Customer or Supplier that allows capturing a greater proportion of the value chain, or financial synergies that may be attractive for fiscal, financial or institutional reasons.
At NORGESTION, we understand that mergers go beyond simple transactions; they represent strategic unions that empower and consolidate companies. We adopt a comprehensive approach, considering financial, human and cultural aspects.
Our analysis focuses on ensuring that the identified synergies add tangible value, while keeping intact the essence and pillars of success of each entity. We prioritize an equitable distribution of power and responsibility, ensuring that every stakeholder, whether a CEO, a corporation or a family group, sees their legacy and contribution respected. With NORGESTION, mergers are based on trust, respect and a shared vision.
