Merger and Acquisition Target Identification in the Czech Republic and Poland for a leading manufacturer of ventilation and dust-deduction systems
Merger and Acquisition Target Identification in the Czech Republic and Poland for a leading manufacturer of ventilation and dust-deduction systems

Client's problem:

A leading German ventilation manufacturer turned to PMR with a problem of capacity shortage. The company aimed at increasing its production volume but at a lower operating cost. It wanted to gain access to skilled, low cost labour by moving the production processes to Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Its preferred strategy was M&A (Merger and Acquisition) of a CEE partner.

Our solution:

First of all, PMR Consultants advised the client as to the preferred geographical scope of the research - Poland and the Czech Republic. Afterwards, these countries were screened in a search for an adequate company that would suit our client's criteria. Subsequently, the PMR team short-listed and validated potential targets and prepared comprehensive profiles including detailed financial data. Additionally in cooperation with the client PMR Consultants designed a Vendor Assessment Questionnaire which served the purpose of gaining a better understanding of the Czech or Polish firm. It was also crucial for the process to develop a relationship with potential partners, which in further stage influenced positively business talks. PMR experts also provided the client with a road map on M&A preparation, assisted during the company's visits in Poland and the Czech Republic, supported during the negotiation process and informed on the Central and Eastern European business culture.

How the project ended:

Business talks are currently in progress, our client is at the point of putting the final bid for acquisition of the selected company advised by PMR. The expected deal completion is planned for mid October 2007.

Delivery time:

10 weeks

What the client received through this project:

Our client was provided with a comprehensive report including companies' detailed profiles and Vendor Assessment Questionnaire. PMR Consultants organized and supported the client during their visits to Poland and the Czech Republic.
