There comes a time in the lifecycle of every business when the shareholders want to exit. Perhaps you are looking for a third-party sale? Planning for retirement? Looking for a merger opportunity? Or a management buyout? There are many options to consider.
This decision can be one of the easiest or the most difficult things you may ever have to do, depending on the situation. Whatever the reason for your wanting to exit, we can help you achieve the best outcome.
Maximise gains and minimise tax when you exit your business
Planning ahead for your exit will ensure you get the best outcome, whatever the situation. This might be a tax efficient disposal, a secure succession plan involving family members, or perhaps a management buy-out. You may need to consider implementing an enterprise management incentive share option scheme, or your eligibility to business asset disposal relief.
All these opportunities require forward planning. Don’t wait until you are ready to retire to begin exit planning – because delays might mean you miss out on the returns you deserve or on valuable tax reliefs.
RJP LLP are experts in exit planning and have worked with many business owners to help them consider all the options and prepare for a profitable departure. Together, we will help you to prepare your business for an exit that provides you with the best return, with or without your ongoing involvement. We can help you to identify the best way to structure the deal and avoid reductions in price.
Whatever your goals, we will work with you to understand your objectives and develop a practical plan that delivers the outcome you deserve.
Give us a call and see what we can do.
I just wanted to drop you a short note to say how grateful I am for the support that RJP has provided over the past 4 weeks while our Financial Controller was away. I struggle to comprehend how much work your staff get through during their weekly visits and they are always a pleasure to have around the office.
