Mergers & Acquisitions

The acquisition or merger of companies represents one of the most complex forms of corporate transformation. It requires systematic preparation, analysis, and the management of a wide range of financial and legal matters in order to be completed successfully.
 
The two processes differ in their final outcome:

• Merger: two or more separate companies are combined to form a new unified corporate entity.

• Acquisition: one company acquires assets (such as facilities, equipment, inventory, receivables) or shares of another company, thereby gaining control.

 
In both cases, success depends on the proper assessment of all relevant parameters. The experienced advisory team of Analog Group, with extensive experience in due diligence for small, medium-sized, and large enterprises, conducts a thorough review of elements such as:

• Financial statements and tax data.

• Profit and loss statements of previous years.

• Loan obligations and contractual agreements.

• Asset inventories.

• Employment relationships and contractual obligations.

• Intellectual and industrial property rights.

• Insurance coverage and environmental permits.

 
In this way, we provide a comprehensive and reliable view of the financial and operational condition of the business, enabling organizations to accurately assess the feasibility of a merger or acquisition and proceed with confidence in their strategic decisions.

Feasibility & Viability Studies
 
Feasibility and viability studies are a key tool for evaluating a new business plan or investment. Their objective is to analyze both the internal environment of a business and the external environment in which it operates, in order to determine whether an idea can be successfully implemented.
 
During the study, factors taken into consideration include:

• Industry performance and trends (market analysis).

• The local market and its specific characteristics (local market analysis).

• The outlook of the national economy in the medium and long term.

• Competition and the company’s position within it.

 
These studies are critical to the success of a project, as they significantly reduce investor risk and define the growth path of a business by providing a comprehensive view of its prospects.
 
Key indicators examined include:

• Market & Local Market Analysis.

• SWOT Analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats).

• Financial and cash flow projections.

• Forecasts of future profits and losses.

• Assessment of capital requirements and financing proposals.

 
In this way, the business gains a reliable decision-making tool that can determine the success or failure of an investment before it even begins.
