The Team at Convex undertook a strategic review of our clients Business and positioned the Company to achieve maximum value in the market.
The Convex team selected a number of strategic acquirers and negotiated the structure, value and timing of the consideration, together with a number of key agreements which will enhance the operation retained to the shareholders.
The Convex difference: strategy to split the business divisions into two sales processes to maximise value, rather than simply selling the whole Group
