THE PROBLEM

Growth takes more
than capital.

You may have the ambition and capital to grow, but no dedicated team to make the transaction happen. Bringing together the right expertise — and finding the capacity to do the work — can be the biggest hurdle.

Family offices & investment groups
A lean team can struggle to source opportunities, assess them and coordinate a transaction alongside existing investments.
Experienced private investors
Without a dedicated transaction team, you can be left piecing together information, finding specialists and coordinating the work yourself.
Institutional investors
Even an established investment team can need specialist capacity to investigate a target, coordinate counterparties and meet committee requirements.
Strategic buyers
Your leadership team is running the business. An acquisition adds specialist work across assessment, deal structure, settlement and integration.

A specialist team alongside yours.

We bring together the expertise your transaction needs, work alongside your existing people and take ownership of agreed actions. You gain the capacity to move forward, with room to investigate and make informed decisions.

HOW WE HELP YOU GROW

The right opportunity.
A workable transaction.
A path to growth.

Start with what you want to achieve.
Then shape the transaction around it.

01

Find opportunities that fit your objectives.

We start with your growth objectives and what you want to acquire or invest in, then source and connect relevant opportunities — including off-market transactions where available.

02

Get past the headline numbers.

We get into the financial detail with you and the other parties: earnings, cash flow, working capital, debt and valuation assumptions. Together, we establish what needs resolving and who will do the work.

03

Understand the upside and downside.

Together, we explore what could create value and what could erode it. We work through revenue, funding and timing scenarios so the proposed deal reflects both the opportunity and the risks.

04

Support settlement, integration and beyond.

We work on funding, ownership and deal terms with you, counterparties and the right specialists. We coordinate agreed actions through settlement, then work alongside you on integration priorities and ongoing support.

The scope of strategy, sourcing, preliminary assessment, transaction support, integration and ongoing work is agreed for each engagement. No live investments are offered on this website.

THE EXPERIENCE BEHIND THE WORK

A transaction partner
for your next stage of growth.

We work alongside investors and strategic buyers pursuing growth through acquisition and investment, from strategy and opportunity identification through settlement, integration and beyond.

Our foundation is Tenth Avenue’s accounting practice. We bring that financial discipline into the deal itself: cash requirements, funding, ownership and commercial terms.

We extend your team with transaction expertise and coordinate the specialists each stage needs. Together, we turn the financial detail into a workable structure, clear responsibilities and agreed actions.

Our role and responsibilities are agreed for each engagement, including the support needed after settlement. You know what we are taking forward, who is responsible and how we will work together through integration and beyond.

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

Strategy and opportunity.
Transaction and settlement.
Integration and beyond.

From the first strategic decision
to integration and ongoing support.

01 — STRATEGY & OPPORTUNITY

Set the direction. Find the fit.

We work with you to define your growth objectives and identify relevant opportunities. Explore one we’ve sourced and vetted, or bring your own transaction or acquisition / investment requirement. Together, we agree the path forward.

02 — TRANSACTION & SETTLEMENT

Shape the deal. Work toward settlement.

We assemble and coordinate the specialist team your transaction needs, working with your people and counterparties on funding, ownership, deal terms and settlement. Together, we work through technical and stakeholder roadblocks and progress the agreed actions.

03 — INTEGRATION & BEYOND

Integrate and plan what comes next.

After settlement, we work alongside you on integration priorities, responsibilities and agreed next steps. We help review progress against your growth objectives, work through emerging issues and agree the ongoing support needed as your priorities evolve.

THE COST OF AN UNCLEAR PROCESS

Unanswered questions
do not disappear at completion.

Without clear acquisition / investment priorities and a closer look at the evidence, time and capital can go into the wrong places.

  • Time spent
    on a poor fit.

    Weeks of screening or diligence can go into a transaction that should have been ruled out earlier.

  • Funding needs
    left unresolved.

    Working capital, debt and post-completion requirements can be missed when attention stays on headline earnings.

  • Progress without
    clear ownership.

    Questions can pass between parties without anyone taking responsibility for resolving them, leaving the transaction stalled.

Taking a closer look is not a reason to rush. It may be the reason to pause or pass.

WHAT WORKING WITH TENTH AVENUE CAN ACHIEVE

A workable deal.
A shared path.
Progress together.

The aim is a commercially workable transaction that supports your growth objectives, with the right people involved through settlement, integration and the next stage of growth.

We stay focused on making the deal work while keeping unresolved issues visible. If the commercial case no longer holds, we address that with you before taking it further.

A relevant opportunity.
A deal we have sourced or one you bring, shaped around your growth objectives and what you want to acquire or invest in.
A structure to work with.
Funding needs, ownership, deal terms and outstanding issues worked through with the relevant parties.
A specialist team alongside you.
The expertise and capacity your transaction needs, with clear responsibilities and coordinated work through settlement, integration and beyond.

These are process objectives, not a promise of investment performance or the removal of risk.

PRACTICAL QUESTIONS

The questions
before the next step.

How can you help us grow through acquisition or investment?

We work alongside you from growth strategy and opportunity identification through settlement, integration and beyond. You can explore opportunities we’ve sourced and vetted or bring your own transaction or requirement. Together, we agree the work needed at each stage. Off-market access alone does not establish fit or value.

We have a target in mind, but the information is incomplete. Where do we start?

Bring what you have and tell us what you want to achieve. We work with you and the relevant parties to establish what is missing, who can provide it and how it affects funding, terms or structure. We agree the work we will take forward and any further specialist input needed.

Can you work alongside our existing team and advisers?

Yes. We work with your internal team and existing advisers, bringing in specialist expertise and additional capacity where needed. Together, we agree who owns each part of the work and coordinate it from strategy through settlement, integration and beyond.

Does your preliminary review replace full due diligence?

No. A preliminary review helps identify fit, information gaps and issues worth investigating. Legal, tax, technical and other specialist work may still be required. The scope and limits of our work are agreed for each engagement.

We have an investment committee. What would the assessment need to cover?

We agree the information and approvals your committee needs, coordinate the relevant work and keep outstanding issues visible as the transaction develops. Your committee retains its decision-making role.

Does your support end at settlement?

No. Where agreed in our engagement, we continue working alongside you on integration priorities, outstanding issues and the next stage of growth. We agree responsibilities, review progress together and adapt the ongoing work as your needs evolve.
