Secure your
Strategic Decisions
In a constantly evolving economic environment, each external growth operation (acquisition, stake purchase, merger) represents both a development opportunity and a major security challenge. Before taking such a structuring step, it is crucial to conduct a thorough analysis of the target company. This is where Due Diligence or acquisition audit comes in: a mission aimed at assessing risks, validating valuation assumptions, and securing the transaction. Orial, thanks to its recognized expertise in auditing, accounting, and consulting, supports you in these sensitive phases with a rigorous, multidisciplinary, and completely independent approach.
Due Diligence:
Secure your External Growth Operations
Are you considering acquiring a company or taking a stake in its capital? Before committing, it is essential to have a complete, objective, and in-depth view of the target. Due Diligence, also called preliminary audit, is the key to securing your investment. Thanks to our multidisciplinary expertise, we offer you a detailed analysis to inform your strategic decisions and minimize uncertainty.
Our Approach to Due Diligence:
a 360° Vision
The Due Diligence mission is not limited to a simple account review. It is a comprehensive and structured diagnosis that evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the target company, its risks, and the sustainability of its business model. At Orial, we analyze in depth:
In-depth Financial Analysis
- Control of accounting data quality,
- Analysis of past results (EBITDA, cash flow, debt, working capital requirements),
- Identification of necessary adjustments in the context of valuation
Tax and Social Audit
- Verification of tax and social declarations compliance,
- Analysis of disputes, potential adjustments, and accrued expenses,
- Evaluation of the social climate and human resources obligations.
Legal and Contractual Review
- Analysis of key contractual commitments (clients, suppliers, leases, etc.),
- Control of guarantees, pacts, and specific clauses,
- Verification of regulatory compliance.
Prospects Evaluation
- Verification of business plan consistency,
- Analysis of commercial strategy and economic dependency,
- Estimation of post-acquisition working capital needs.
Acquisition Audit: a Contractual Audit Focused on your Challenges
The acquisition audit is a contractual form of Due Diligence, defined according to the specific expectations of the acquirer. It can be partial or complete, depending on the operation’s stakes. This mission allows you to adjust your offer, secure the valuation, and review certain guarantee clauses. Each acquisition audit is custom-designed, with interventions in short timeframes, in direct collaboration with your legal and financial advisors. Our deliverables are designed to be directly usable during negotiations and structured around key risks.
