Target Identification
The identification of potential targets is an essential part of any investment strategy. A thorough pre-selection helps you to decide which investment should be further pursued, for example within the context of a due diligence. For this purpose, we look at a complete market – that has previously been defined by you – and carry out a classification of the market participants. In this process we answer, among others, questions about the structure of the respective market and its active business models. The result of this analysis is a target shortlist containing all potentially interesting target companies.

Potential Analysis
Within the framework of a potential analysis, we answer the question of achievable sales potential in the target company – and which means to use to reach full potential. To answer this question, we evaluate market, competition and company data in an in-depth analysis, based on which we draw up a concrete assessment of the monetary potential.
Thus the potential analysis provides an essential basis when deciding whether or not to take or hold a participation.

Pre Due Diligence
Contrary to a complete due diligence, a pre due diligence can be carried out without access to company data. This is an external view of the target company, from which initial estimates regarding – among others – market size, market shares and competitive situation can be derived.
This outside-in analysis provides you with a good initial overview of a potential target and, based on this information, you can decide on further proceedings.

Target Pitch for PEs
Whereas in the past companies were dependent on the favour of a single investor, they can nowadays often choose from a large number of potential investors. This puts them in a position to choose exactly the investor who fulfills their requirements best. In such cases, the decisive factor is not the amount of the investment sum, but rather the additional value an investor can offer the target company. This includes, among other things, the network of the potential investor, industry-specific activities as well as professional expertise.
It is our task to present the target companies in a structured and individually tailored manner with the advantages they will experience with you as investors. We represent you professionally, analytically and ensure that your target has all the critical information it needs to evaluate you appropriately in its decision-making process. In collaboration with you we develop a specific strength profile for the respective acquisition, which then must be continuously emphasized – for example, in management presentations.
