To a great extent, the development of medium-sized businesses is shaped by the company’s actions and changing market conditions. If, as a result of strategic market considerations or a new successor situation, an entrepreneur decides to hand over or sell his company, a number of different value optimisation potentials arise beforehand. Working together with a management consultant during this pre-sales phase means that potential increases in value can be identified and peripheral activities and asset positions that are no longer critical can be highlighted. Essential steps towards optimising the value of a company include transparency with regard to planning and reporting, clear organisational structures, a focus on core competences when handling the market, but also the reduction of working capital positions (debtors and stock-in-trade) and the sale of asset positions that are no longer critical for the running of the business (machines or real estate). Once the company has been analysed, a clear schedule is required to implement the necessary measures and increase the company’s potential.
Value optimisation potentials that can increase the value of a company will be identified based on a given company situation and a current company value. Angermann & Partner will draw up an implementation plan that helps realise this increase in value operatively. This will be followed up by an implementation controlling process. This value appreciation process requires a certain time frame within which these measures can also find expression in the company’s figures. In addition to raising the company’s value, the pre-sale consultation also serves to prepare the company for any inspections by an external interested party as part of a due diligence process.
