Your journey with us

At Deloitte in our M&A Transaction Services – Financial SPA Advice Team we solve important M&A problems that stand in the way of value being created, sustained, realized or protected for our clients. Our M&A Transaction Service practice is an exciting, fast-paced environment, as well as a consistently growing business that focuses on M&A deals for our clients.
We provide valuable support, insight and analysis to our clients and other players involved in M&A transactions, with a focus on accounting and financial aspects.

Our Financial Sale & Purchase Agreement (SPA) advisory team provides expert support to clients, lawyers, and deal teams in financial and accounting aspects of the deal. Our clients come to us to obtain our advice on the key value items in a transaction, including supporting them in their equity price negotiation as well as the accounting and financial elements in the SPA, supporting them once the SPA is signed on topics as completion accounts, leakage reviews, and earn-outs, as well as M&A disputes.

Pre-signing

In the pre-signing phase, our key focus is increasing and protecting deal value for our clients by supporting them with their non-binding offer or letter of intent, all financial and accounting related topics in the SPA negotiation process (e.g. purchase price mechanism, enterprise value to equity value bridge, equity ticker calculations, accounting policies, etc.) working alongside our client’s other advisors to ensure no money is left on the table.

Post-signing

We assist our client with the final purchase price determination process, be it via completion accounts support, leakage reviews in a locked box pricing mechanism and/or earn-out calculations. 
Depending on whether we are supporting the buy-side or the sell-side, we assist in dry-runs to be fully prepared for the completion accounts process, preparing the completion accounts, or take on the review role. In every situation, our focus is to ensure that value is protected and where possible, maximized. 

SPA disputes

Lastly, we support our clients in case of M&A disputes related to the SPA, which can be on price discussions related to the completion accounts, discussions on leakage, or earn-outs. This can be in a supporting role to the Seller, the Buyer, or acting as an independent expert, but always with the goal of arriving at a final solution in their discussions on the purchase price.
