The Business Sale Process: Stages and Our Support

Selling a business is a complex and multifaceted process, significantly more challenging than selling other movable or immovable property. It involves several key stages:

1. Determining the Value of the Business

• Analyzing financial performance: Assessing current revenues, expenses, profits, and losses.
• Evaluating profit and growth potential: Examining market trends, competitive landscape, and expansion opportunities.
• Inventory of assets: Accounting for tangible and intangible assets, including equipment, real estate, intellectual property, and brand value.

2. Preparing Documentation

• Creating a business description: Developing a detailed overview of the company’s operations, history, structure, products, and services.
• Drafting a confidentiality agreement (NDA): Protecting commercial information during interactions with potential buyers.
• Legal due diligence: Conducting a preliminary assessment of the business’s legal aspects to identify potential risks.

3. Finding and Engaging Potential Buyers

• Marketing strategy: Designing a plan to attract interested buyers.
• Leveraging contacts and networks: Reaching out to existing connections and professional communities.
• Negotiating terms: Discussing deal conditions, price, and other crucial details.

4. Closing the Deal

• Drafting a preliminary agreement: Fixing the main terms of the sale.
• Buyer’s due diligence: Allowing the buyer to conduct their own analysis of the business.
• Finalizing the deal: Preparing and signing all necessary legal documents.
• Transferring the business: Completing formalities and transferring ownership rights.
