Transaction Support Accounting
Financial clarity
before the decision
When the numbers need to hold up, Mergevue provides careful, evidence-led analysis for buyers and sellers navigating M&A transactions worldwide.
What We Deliver
A considered view of the figures, presented plainly
A transaction moves faster when both sides understand the numbers with equal clarity. We work to close that gap — producing analysis that is grounded, traceable, and useful to the people who rely on it.
Traceable findings
Every conclusion points back to a source. You can follow the reasoning, question it, and rely on it — or know where to look if something needs revisiting.
Plain language throughout
Technical accounting findings are explained without unnecessary complexity. The people making decisions can engage with the work directly, not just the summary.
Scope-appropriate work
The depth of analysis fits the transaction — no over-engineering, no shortcuts. Scope is agreed upfront so the work is genuinely useful, not generic.
How We Work
The analysis that supports a considered decision
Good transaction accounting leaves nothing unexplained. These are the qualities we hold ourselves to on every engagement.
Structured findings, not summaries
We present findings in a format that supports review and challenge — not a conclusion handed down. The structure mirrors how decisions are actually made.
Normalisation explained clearly
Adjustments to earnings are not treated as self-evident. Each one is identified, reasoned, and disclosed so you understand what has been changed and why.
Scope defined before work begins
We agree on the scope and deliverables at the start. There are no surprises in what is covered, and no charges for work outside what was agreed.
Neutral, independent position
Our work is not influenced by the transaction outcome. We provide analysis — the decisions, negotiations, and terms remain entirely with you and your advisers.
The Process
Four steps from brief to deliverable
The engagement is kept straightforward. Here is how an engagement typically unfolds.
01
Initial conversation
We discuss the transaction, the data available, and what you need from the analysis. No commitment at this stage — just an honest exchange about fit and scope.
02
Scope and proposal
We set out the scope, timeline, and fee in writing. You see exactly what will be covered before any work begins.
03
Analysis and review
We work through the financial data carefully, flagging questions as they arise and keeping you informed of progress. No surprises at the end.
04
Findings and handover
The report is delivered in a structured format, with findings explained in plain terms. We remain available to discuss the output with you and your advisers.
Credentials & Approach
A practice built around careful work
The quality of transaction accounting is measured by how well it holds up — under scrutiny, in negotiation, and after closing.
Global
Engagements across multiple jurisdictions and sectors, with findings delivered to the same standard regardless of geography.
3 Core
Services precisely scoped — financial due diligence, quality of earnings, and working capital — so each is done properly, not generically.
Fixed
Transparent, agreed-in-advance fees. The investment is known before the work begins and does not shift as the engagement progresses.
"The most useful due diligence is the kind that gives a buyer a real picture — not a comfortable one. That means asking the harder questions, documenting the answers, and being clear about what remains uncertain."
— Working principle, Mergevue
