Corporate Finance

Buying a business, selling one, raising capital or restructuring ownership are decisions you make once, not every year. Stragans' Corporate Finance team works alongside owners, boards and management to make sure those decisions are backed by sound numbers and a clear view of the risks involved.

We advise on both sides of a transaction. For buyers, that means financial and tax due diligence, checking the quality of earnings, and testing the assumptions behind a business's forecasts before money changes hands. For sellers, it means preparing a business for sale, positioning it accurately to the market, and managing the process so value isn't left on the table.

Beyond transactions, our team supports business valuations for sale negotiations, disputes, tax purposes and financial reporting. We also help clients raise capital, structure funding, and think through the tax and commercial consequences of a restructure before it happens, not after.

Where we help

• Business valuations, for sale, purchase, disputes, or reporting requirements
• Mergers, acquisitions and divestments — buy-side and sell-side
• Financial and tax due diligence
• Capital raising and funding structuring
• Financial modelling and forecast review
• Exit and succession planning

Every engagement starts with the same question: what decision are you actually trying to make, and what do you need to know to make it well? From there we scale the work to the transaction, focusing on the assumptions and risks that matter most rather than running a standard checklist.
