Advisory Service Offerings

Pre-Close Services

Our pre-close advisory services offer a range of services provided to private equity firms prior to the acquisition of a target company. E78 helps private equity firms identify the most strategically sound investments and optimize the purchase price and terms of the acquisition through negotiating insights. Our pre-close advisory services aim to accelerate the transaction speed to close without compromising thorough planning for Day One, the day after the acquisition is completed. This involves developing a comprehensive plan for the integration of the target company into the private equity firm's portfolio, including the identification of any operational or cultural differences that need to be addressed.

Acquisition Services

We specialize in providing acquisition services to private equity firms, offering comprehensive support throughout the transaction process. Working closely with private equity partners and their portfolio companies, we ensure a smooth and successful journey. As a trusted partner, we engage with sponsors to deliver end-to-end assistance, encompassing deal evaluation, due diligence, negotiations, and finalization. With our team's extensive experience in collaborating with private equity firms and their portfolio companies, we possess a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities that arise during acquisitions. By tailoring solutions to meet specific needs and objectives, we establish a solid foundation for successful outcomes.

Post-Close Services

The first 100 days are critical to both private equity and portfolio firms to maximizing value. We deliver enhanced reporting and improved IT systems and implement best practices. We are highly involved with all parties to deliver an effective operational playbook. Our team will address optimizing accounting operations, design reporting packages and rolling forecasts for stakeholders, build and enhance treasury & cash management controls and optimize governance.
