SITUATION
Acquisition is one of many growth strategies a company may adopt, but it can also be a risky proposition. BodyBlocks Nutrition Systems, Inc. began looking for companies that they could purchase to accelerate their growth plans. In order to take advantage of these opportunities BodyBlocks needed to retain an experienced financial professional to evaluate the prospective purchase.
SOLUTION: The Numbers Coach M&A Support Services
BodyBlocks engaged the Numbers Coach (“NC”) to evaluate the financial structure and investment return of acquisition opportunities, including:
- Developing financial models to understand the potential return on investment and operational characteristics;
- Creating discounted cash flow models to understand the basic financial value of the prospective acquisition;
- Financial due diligence support and analysis.
RESULTS
NC provided BodyBlocks with comprehensive financial reports and analysis to assess acquisition targets. The BodyBlocks’ investor group was able to understand the risks and potential rewards of the acquisition, and the financial drivers of each opportunity.
