Services

Merger Vision provides M&A advisory services to private owners of medium-sized and large companies. We will successfully guide you through the process of selling your own company or buying another one. In addition, we propose suitable forms of financing to support the development of your company and raise such funds, whether in the form of debt or equity investment.

Please look at our transactions and read what services we have provided to our clients and what clients say about our work.

Do you plan to expand your business activities? Enter new markets? Broaden your know-how or product portfolio by acquiring a competitor, supplier, or customer? Or are you a financial investor looking for a new platform or add-on acquisition opportunity?

If you are a foreign investor, we will get acquainted with your strategic priorities and acquisition criteria. We will usually, on our initiative, introduce you to potentially suitable acquisition targets in the Czech Republic.

Using international platforms for sharing M&A opportunities, transaction databases, and long-term cooperation with foreign M&A advisors and investment banks, we will offer Czech investors opportunities for growth in the Czech Republic and abroad, including outside Europe.

By originating the opportunity for you, we start providing our advisory support throughout all phases of the acquisition process, including a more profound understanding of your strategy and assistance with defining your acquisition criteria, recommending suitable target companies, addressing them, and preparing a preliminary offer, including an estimate of their market value; managing the due diligence process and reflecting its results into the purchase price and/or contracts; negotiation of transaction documentation; structuring of the transaction – the subject of purchase (shares/assets), form, method and timing of purchase price payment; transaction settlement.

Acquisition of a company is a demanding process and usually takes six to twelve months. Buying a company is demanding and usually takes six to twelve months – from the definition of acquisition criteria to the settlement of the transaction. We believe you will benefit from our know-how, experiences, and support, contributing to a successful closing while minimising the transaction risks.

Please get in touch with us to discuss how we can work together.

Our clients' experience

  • Mr Mareš addressed us as a representative of one of the largest investment banks in the CEE region and advisor to one of the Western European leaders in our sector, Swedish listed company NIBE Industrier AB, which was looking for growth opportunities in the CEE region. Finally, all shareholders decided to initiate a competitive auction process, in which the investor represented by the team led by Mr Mareš won. We valued the directness of negotiations and respect for jointly agreed procedures.

  • We are a fast-growing family business with more than 30 years of history producing and selling doors and door frames. We have built an extensive sales network throughout the Czech Republic and a new production plant in Jihlava. However, we plan to continuously expand our production capacities to meet the growing demand for our products in sufficient volume and quality. For us, Merger Vision is a partner with relevant transaction experience and professional background. Their advisory team has been monitoring our acquisition opportunities for a long time and advised on negotiations with the owners of several target companies. The acquisition of Výroba dveří s.r.o. is the first completed transaction so far and has enabled us to start production of small series of special doors. Merger Vision assisted us in all phases of the acquisition process and throughout the subsequent merger of the two companies.

  • Following the previous successful sale of my brewing group, I decided to turn GRANETTE into one of the top Czech producers of spirits and liqueurs. To achieve this goal, we needed to acquire a broader portfolio of traditional Czech brands and significantly expand our existing production capacity. The advisory team of Merger Vision originated negotiations with key shareholders of a traditional distillery, Palírna U Zeleného stromu and managed the acquisition process. Although integration of both companies was the preferred option for both parties, the negotiations were complicated, partly due to the high number of selling shareholders. However, thanks to a repeated initiative by Merger Vision, the transaction was completed after about two years, and the second largest producer of spirits in the Czech Republic emerged.
