Mergevue transaction accounting services

Services

Three services, each built for a specific need

The work is not packaged. Each service is designed to address a specific requirement in the transaction process — with a scope, fee, and output that fits the purpose.

How the Services Are Structured

Focused, rather than comprehensive by default

Each service has a defined purpose and a fixed fee. The scope is agreed before work begins, reflecting the actual transaction rather than a generic checklist. You can commission one service or a combination — depending on what the transaction requires.

Choosing the Right Service

Which service fits your situation

Each service addresses a different phase or need in the transaction. Many engagements combine two or three services — the scope and fees are agreed separately for each.

If you are a buyer

Financial Due Diligence gives a comprehensive view of the target's financial history and accounting position. Quality of Earnings provides the focused earnings analysis that underpins the price discussion.

Working Capital support is typically added when the completion mechanism involves an adjustment based on net working capital.

If you are a seller

A vendor Quality of Earnings report can be prepared ahead of a process, giving buyers a clear and consistent picture and reducing the scope for price adjustments during due diligence.

Working Capital support helps establish a defensible position on the completion mechanism before negotiation begins.

If you are an adviser

Any of the three services can be commissioned to support a client in a transaction. The reports are structured to integrate with legal and commercial diligence workstreams.

We are available to discuss findings with counterparties and legal teams after delivery, which is useful when the output needs to be defended or explained.

Get Started

Not sure which service fits? That is a good reason to talk.

An initial conversation about your transaction is the best way to understand what would be useful. There is no obligation and no charge for discussing scope — just an honest exchange about whether and how we can help.
