Find Targets That Create Optimal Value For The Buyer

BDO Capital professionals have over 100 years of collective acquisition advisory expertise and the robust institutional infrastructure to source domestic and international targets. In the sourcing of acquisition candidates, BDO Capital employs its own proprietary buyer database while also having access to and assistance from BDO International professionals.

The typical acquisition assignment normally involves the creation and prioritization of a list of acquisition candidates. This process is then followed by the full cadre of buy side services which include contacting and valuing prospective targets, drafting and negotiating letters of interest and intent, the facilitation of due diligence and the ultimate negotiation of the stock or asset purchase agreement. We can manage the merger acquisition checklist.

In addition to being responsible for all of the services noted above, BDO Capital can also assist in the raising of the necessary funds to finance the proposed transaction. A full description of BDO Capital's fund raising capabilities are described in the Corporate Finance section of this web site. BDO can also bring skills and experience to the post merger acquisition transition.

Fees paid for corporate acquisition services normally include a monthly retainer and success fee. Importantly, the vast majority of fees are paid upon and conditional to the successful outcome of a transaction insuring proper alignment of interests
