Merger of companies

Kontakt helps identify potential targets and provides advice on valuation as well as assessment of the effects of the merger, e.g. synergies and savings on operational expenses.

Valuation

Kontakt undertakes to make an independent valuation of the operations of companies for their owners that will be useful in case of a sale or merger, financing or restructuring. Such a valuation is mostly based on numerical facts such as official figures or data obtained by the buyer or offered by the seller. Effort is made to talk to the company's management to give a fuller picture of the operation, but no actual due diligence is conducted.
