In this section, you will understand better our sector coverage:
Due to the accelerating pace of business, our clients are constantly balancing complex objectives.
Each transaction in which our clients are engaged must seek to increase shareholders’ value, while not compromising quarterly performance, customers’ confidence, or employees’ efforts.
The capital structure of the company is one of the classical way to increase the shareholders’ value creation, using simple financial engineering tools.
We have developed specific and unique financial models that will help you to take the right decision for your company, and therefore to enhance the overall shareholders’ value creation.

Selling your business is more than just a transaction: it’s a turning point and perhaps THE transaction of your life.
As such, Weissknight’s M&A practice does more than negotiating and executing transactions:
- We first learn the fundamental essence of each client as well as the rationale behind its corporate development strategy.
- We help to prepare and maximise the value that can be reasonably extract from the sale of the business.
- We then establish a dedicated process that will generate a competitive bidding environment and maximise your value creation.
- Our process, when combined with our tenacity and ambition, has a great impact on the probability of a successful outcome.
By adhering to a disciplined and focused process, in which strict standards of confidentiality are maintained and conflicts of interest are absent, Weissknight has the objective that each sale or divestiture is achieved at the best possible combination of price and terms.

An acquisition is more than just a transaction: it’s a turning point.
When properly structured and executed, the deal can lead to a period of accelerated growth. However, when it is over-priced, the results can be disastrous.
Weissknight believes that it is sometimes more important to stop a deal than it is to complete one.
Our main services include:
- Valuation Services: To allow your firm to take the right decision, you need an appropriate valuation analysis, because “Value always matters…”
- M&A Services: We also offer traditional buy-side advisory services, from the target screening to the final negotiations and the closing of the deal.
Weissknight will help you to understand the market, identify potential strategies, screen the potential targets, and advice you through the complex acquisition process.
French, German, UK companies, European based financial investors and strategic buyers have come for a long time to Weissknight to search and find attractive midsized companies.

With our valuation services, we are helping business owners, business buyers, entrepreneurs, senior executives, investment committees, and investors to make knowledgeable business decisions.
Weissknight quantifies the value of your business opportunity, we interpret your vision, communicate efficiently this information to key shareholders, improve business performances, and tighten the degree of confidence around the best decision possible.
Any company valuation is primarily a function of its core business fundamentals.
Current market conditions can distort a business valuation, and therefore distort perceived business value. But market forces have a way of catching up with reality. That's why our work brings another view of the value of your company which should always depend on the fundamentals of your business, rather than on specific market conditions.
Quantification of shareholder value is often a key element in company governance and decision-making processes. Your board of directors requires probably a fairness opinion, or at least an independent valuation report… before validating your strategy.
We invite you to take advantage of our experience and unique focus
