Case Studies
An entrepreneurial accessories designer was in very advanced negotiations to be acquired by a larger publicly traded firm. This manufacturer outsourced their accounting function and unfortunately the historical financials were deemed insufficient and unreliable by the acquirer’s advisors (big four advisory firm) which put the transaction at risk. Vantage Peak Advisory lead a tactical team and used subledger detail (Purchase Orders, Customer Shipments, etc.) and raw financial data to recreate historical financials and successfully defend the approach and tactics utilized when reviewed by the buyer’s advisory team. The deal successfully closed as a result shortly afterwards. The successful strategy originated from the technical approach developed over the last few decades within several diverse industries.
