Africa has enormous M&A opportunities. Our aim is to provide advice and raise capital on a full suite of transactions ranging from mergers, acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, joint ventures, spin-offs, divestitures, and other restructuring initiatives.

C-NERGY’s M&A product offers clients: due diligence reviews; valuation, post-acquisition and/or merger integration and portfolio alignment and value harvesting; turnaround management, and exit planning services.

As part of due diligence exercises (depending on the nature, size, and scope of each assignment), we work with some of the most credible local and international Law firms, Accounting and Audit firms as well as other professionals with expertise in the various industries to help clients flesh out their investment thesis to maximize return on investment. We then work with clients to test the investment thesis by concentrating on the big issues that will determine the deal's ultimate success and help clients develop an agenda for creating value once the deal is closed. In performing our review, we assess key industry performance issues and cash flow drivers. We also pay specific attention to economic and other environmental issues that impact business outcomes.

Upon successfully consummating an M&A deal, we offer post-transaction integration and portfolio alignment advice to assist our clients to develop a strategic blueprint for the consolidated newly enlarged group; facilitate workshops and discussions that align the respective management teams to the new strategic priorities of the merged entity. We investigate revenue enhancement strategies and cost reduction initiatives as part of this value-enhancing service.

For distressed turnarounds, we aim to provide cross-disciplinary interim management support for defined financial restructuring, as well as, strategic, operational and organizational transformations.

Our exit planning practice ensures that investors consummate deals with a maximum return by preparing for exits, identifying the optimal exit strategies, preparing the sale documents, and pre-qualifying buyers.
