Due Diligence
- Due Diligence will form a normal part of the transaction process in an acquisition. However, we are often instructed to act for a Venture Capital Company or Bank considering an investment or larger loan into a SME or family business.
- We work with our client to identify issues of concern and to understand commercial issues.
- Using information available publicly and that gleaned from our investigations, we will produce a comprehensive report.
- We will identify potential risk areas and highlight these for further action.
- We will recommend input to the investment or acquisition agreement being drafted by your lawyer.
Case Study - Business Review
Acting for a Venture Capitalist, we were asked to review forecasts, assumptions and management strengths of a near start-up manufacturing business.
We identified a number of shortcomings in the assumptions and, as a result of our report and recommendations, the proposed investment was reappraised and went forward in a revised format.
Case Study - Business Review
We reviewed a potential investment in an established cosmetic repair company for a regional Venture Capital Fund.
We were able to advise on financial forecasts, accounts and records, systems and controls, as well as undertaking various sensitivity testing and appraising the management.

Due Diligence
Monahans undertook a due diligence exercise on behalf of HBOS who were considering the financing of a MBO team. This involved appraising the skills of the MBO team, reviewing forecasts and assessing the business plan, as well as the overall commercial feasibility of the deal.
"We have worked closely with Monahans Corporate Finance on many transactions and they have always provided very high quality, professional services. We would recommend any business to see what they have to offer."
