moreThe financial due diligence process provides a detailed review of a target business from a financial, fiscal and commercial perspective, adding value by focusing on the key issues likely to affect the acquisition decision and the price.
RSM Malta provides an investigative analysis of your business, assessing the key issues facing the business and the drivers behind maintainable profits and cash flows and identifying the key financial risks and potential deal breakers of the transaction, giving you a better understanding of the deal.
We adopt a structured approach to gather, analyse, apply and deliver the information you need to assess and execute the deal. Our reports are issues-focused, giving an in-depth understanding of critical areas and providing advice on key negotiation points and pricing considerations.
Our approach aims to identify the value created by the transaction, including analysis of actual earnings, financial projections, cash flow generators, capital expenditure, working capital, management information system and control environment, employment issues and commitments and contingent liabilities that might endanger financial performance or otherwise adversely affect the target's financial position after the transaction.
Our work may relate to an acquisition of the shares in a company or its assets (or a group of assets). We conduct our projects in close cooperation with our clients and, if applicable, the investor’s other advisers, which enables us to achieve a complete understanding of investors’ expectations and provide high-quality deliverables.
Our experience in tax due diligence has shown that identified tax risks can have a significant impact on the market value of the target company and might constitute a crucial argument in the price negotiation process. The aim of the tax due diligence is to analyse the target’s tax treatment in respect of its consistency with Maltese tax regulations, legislation and the instructions issued by the Maltese Ministry for Finance. Our services include an analysis of the target’s tax settlements and social security contributions to identify tax risks and an analysis of decisions concerning historical tax controls undertaken by relevant authorities.
We work closely with your legal advisers to ensure that the final agreement includes the necessary protection that you require when acquiring a business.
