Investment process
1
initial evaluation
At the start of a considered acquisition, the investment opportunity is initially evaluated with regard to the project’s concept, its inclusion in the group’s portfolio, possible associated synergies with other companies in the group and expected development of the project. The structuring and submission of a non-binding bid to sellers follow the evaluation.
2
analysis
After the submission of a non-binding offer and prior to acquisition, due diligence is performed, resulting in a detailed knowledge of the project or company and inputs for a binding price offer. Here, we also assess our intentions with the project and the abilities to use our experts during future development. In the case of a minority input, we focus on the term-sheet in which the investment contract and correct relations between the individual investors, shareholders and founders are set up.
3
negotiations
Discussions over the transaction documentation and incorporation of requirements and findings from previous investigations follow. We always strive for an honest and fair discussion with the counter party so that we can successfully complete the investment.
