Intermediation of Company Sales

Garanti expertízy

The sale of a company is one of the most fundamental decisions in a business life. Often, it is not just a commercial transaction, but the culmination of years of work, personal investment, and value building. That is precisely why we do not approach the sale of a company as a one-off deal, but as a process that requires preparation, strategy, and the right timing. Our goal is to guide clients through the entire sale so that it is understandable, calm, and leads to a result that makes sense not only financially but also personally.

Preparation is key

A successful company sale does not begin with negotiations with an investor, but long before that. We help companies prepare for sale so that they are legible, clear, and attractive to the right buyer. Our work includes:

  • valuing the company in the context of its operations and potential,

  • identifying strengths and risks,

  • preparing the company for investor questions,

  • setting up a structure that supports trust and transparency.

A well-prepared company has a significantly stronger negotiating position.

Negotiating with an investor without unnecessary pressure

Negotiating with an investor is a new and sensitive situation for many owners. We help clients navigate this process, prepare for key topics, and maintain control over the entire course. Our role is to be a partner who:

  • assists with preparation for meetings,

  • translates investment language into understandable contexts,

  • monitors the structure and logic of the entire process,

  • and helps make informed decisions.

The right equity story

Every company has its story. A successful sale is not based on numbers alone, but also on how the company is presented and what potential the investor sees in it. We help clients find and formulate their equity story—a clear and believable explanation of:

  • why the company was founded,

  • where it is today,

  • where it is headed,

  • and what its value and further growth potential consist of.

A well-constructed equity story increases the chance that the company will attract the right investor.

A calm process with a clear structure

Selling a company can be demanding and full of uncertainty. By combining legal, tax, and financial perspectives, we can keep the entire process in context and ensure that individual steps follow one another. Our goal is for the client to:

  • understand what is happening,

  • have an overview of the individual steps,

  • and be able to make decisions with peace of mind and certainty.

Who the service is for

The intermediation of company sales is intended primarily for:

  • owners considering the sale of a company or part of it,

  • entrepreneurs looking for a strategic investor,

  • companies preparing for a change in ownership structure,

  • owners who want to have the sale of the company well-prepared and managed.

Every sale is different. Therefore, we approach each case individually and with respect for the client’s situation.

  • A successful company, but chaos in assets

    The business was thriving, and assets were gradually growing. Real estate, shares, investments. Everything was created step by step, without a unified structure. The owner began to feel that he no longer had an overview and that some decisions were being made more out of inertia.

    We helped reorganize the assets, adapt their structure to future plans, and set up management so that it was clear, efficient, and sustainable in the long term.

  • A family business where the future was never discussed.

    The company founder knew that one day he would have to address the handover. It’s just that the “right time” never seemed to come. In the meantime, the children got involved in the business, each with a different idea of their role and the company’s future.

    We helped open the topic of succession early and calmly. First, we looked for a shared vision, then a strategy that respected both the company and the family. Thanks to this, the sensitive topic did not turn into a conflict, but into a plan.

  • The owner was considering a sale, but didn’t know to whom or when.

    The company was performing well, stable, and profitable. The owner felt a change was approaching but didn’t know whether it was time to sell the company, bring in an investor, or continue developing it further.

    We helped him clarify his goals, value the company in the context of its potential, and prepare for negotiations with investors. Together, we built the company’s story so that it made sense not only numerically but also strategically.

  • The owner wanted peace of mind, not more spreadsheets.

    The company owner felt that most of his time was spent mediating between accountants, consultants, and lawyers. Everyone spoke a different language, and responsibility was becoming diluted.

    Our goal was to create a single, clear framework. One team, one perspective, one place where decisions meet. The result was not just a better setup, but also greater peace of mind in everyday operations.

  • The assets were supposed to stay in the family, but it wasn’t clear how.

    The owner wanted to protect the assets while maintaining clear rules for the future. He was looking for ways to ensure management, continuity, and clarity without unnecessary complications.

    We helped select the appropriate legal form, set the rules, and prepare a solution that respected both personal intentions and a long-term horizon.

  • The company entered foreign markets and began to face reality.

    Expanding business across borders was a logical step. It brought new opportunities, but also new obligations. European legislation, regulations, and compliance began to burden the company more than expected.

    We helped the company understand what actually applied to them and set up rules to meet their obligations without unnecessarily weighing down operations. Compliance became a part of management rather than a daily problem.

  • The company faced a crucial decision and lacked perspective.

    An offer came in that could significantly move the company forward. At the same time, it carried risks. The owner needed a partner to help him see the big picture, not just the individual points of a contract.

    Together, we looked at the situation from multiple angles—financial, tax, and strategic—and helped him make an informed decision.

  • The company was growing faster than anyone expected.

    The owner was used to making decisions quickly and intuitively. It worked. The company grew, and both employees and orders increased. At one point, however, it began to clash with its own setup. Contracts were created as needed, the structure evolved on the fly, and taxes were handled operationally rather than conceptually.

    The problem wasn’t a single decision, but the fact that individual steps stopped making sense together. We helped the company clarify its direction again, align financial and tax issues with the reality of the business, and set up a system that supported growth instead of hindering it.

  • The company was performing well, but felt it needed a change.

    Sometimes it’s not about a specific problem. It’s just a feeling that the company has grown and needs a different way of management—more structure, more clarity, and less improvisation.

    It is precisely in these situations that a comprehensive approach from the ground up helps. Together, we looked at how the company functions as a whole and set up a system that corresponded to its new phase.

  • It worked from a tax perspective, but in the long run, it didn’t make sense.

    The company had a setup that delivered short-term savings. However, it gradually became clear that the solution was not sustainable in the long run and was complicating further decision-making.

    We helped find a balance between efficiency and stability. We adjusted the tax and financial planning to support the future development of the company rather than restrict it.
