Mergers and Acquisitions Support

Home / Services / Strategy & Corporate Governance / Mergers and Acquisitions Support

In a period of disruption and reorientation, many providers are reassessing their position in the sector. Often this includes growth through acquisition or merger, or a reorientation through either a merger or exit via a sale. These activities are generally referred to as Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A).

While M&A come in all shapes and sizes, there are a core set of issues and activities that when executed well underpin a successful transaction. Transactions tend to have unique intensity and rhythm and generally involve significant emotions. When parties deal directly, it runs the risk of creating a winner and a loser. Using an intermediary eliminates this risk.

Pride Living helps both acquiring and disposing parties execute successful mergers, acquisitions and sales. Our proven methodology and experienced consultants are your guarantees of a successful outcome. More importantly, by engaging Pride Living, you get objective, pragmatic advice and a team that is undistracted by the day-to-day activities of your organisation.

What a client said

“Having completed three different forms of acquisition in the last 9 months, working with Pride on the Autumn Lodge merger was truly beneficial. Pride’s pragmatic persistence to resolve these challenges enabled us to complete the transaction on time and on budget. I would thoroughly recommend the team at Pride Living to organisations that are considering a merger.”
Denis TamplinHead, Finance Strategy, Uniting
“Pride Living supported the Board and CEO of Autumn Lodge to execute its strategic decision to pursue a merger or be acquired by another company. Pride did this in a manner that was very sensitive to the over 100 years of service to the Armidale community that Autumn Lodge had delivered. At the same time, it was pragmatic in the process of refining the list of potential merger partners through a robust selection process that resulted in a clear and unanimous decision to choose Uniting to continue the service and operations to the New England community. I would recommend any providers considering a merger or acquisition talk with Bruce and the team at Pride Living”
