Support for the spin-off of parts of a company
A spin-off enables a focus on the essentials and thus creates value
‘It’s harder to get out of a bad connection than a good one.’
Whitney Houston
US-American R&B, soul and pop singer and actress (1963-2012)
Not everything that has grown organically over the years really fits together well. If you take a step back and imagine completely impartially what your company would look like if you were to build it from scratch now, you may realise that certain activities should not be carried out at all, while others should be strengthened.
Together, we utilise this knowledge and structure your company appropriately. To do this, we first separate strategically unsuitable or operationally non-value-adding business units and product groups from your organisation (carve-out) and then place them confidentially with a strategically or operationally motivated interested party in order to sharpen the focus in your organisation and uncover management potential.
Your challenge
- Do you see more management attention tied up in a product or a company than there are prospective contributions from this business?
- Do you have business activities that do not match your strategic focus?
- Have you reached the point where you want to sell the relevant business activity?
- Do you want to separate the activity cleanly from your organisation so that the carve-out neither leaves open wounds nor leaves the unit incomplete for buying interests?
- Are you looking for suitable and interested buyers for your unit?
- Do you want the transaction to be carefully planned and professionally realised and an attractive sales price to be achieved?
Our spin-off support services
- We help you to carefully weigh up your decision, taking all the relevant facts into account
- We help you to carve out the unit from your organisation with a minimally invasive procedure
- We confidentially identify suitable prospective buyers who see added value in the business unit to be sold and signal a corresponding willingness to pay
- We accompany the transaction through due diligence, the negotiation phase and the formulation of reasonable guarantees up to the signing of the contract and the actual transfer (closing)
- We then help you – if necessary – to stabilise your business processes again
- We promote the success of the project throughout the entire process with professional internal and external communication management
Successful carve-out thanks to a clear strategy
A carve-out is a complex procedure that requires a great deal of sensitivity. As with a surgical procedure, it requires skill, a precise approach and a clear plan. Only in this way can a carve-out really be carried out successfully without harming your company or the separated organisational unit and optimising the future value on both sides.
Our strategic approach, which is based on an in-depth analysis of your company and the business area to be sold, enables us to work out exactly how the sale should be conducted. At the same time, we plan measures to prevent possible damage to your company and thus create a clean separation that will be a success for your company and the buyer.
