What our clients have to say…

The Gerald Edelman team were instrumental at helping close Redpath Capital’s acquisition of Just Loos in June 2023. They provided reliable and consistent advice and were always available on a moment’s notice. They went above and beyond by helping with negotiation strategies (regardless of day and time) and by providing in-depth feedback on our financial model over its construction. It was a pleasure to work with them and would happily recommend them to our peers.

Charles Madon

Managing Director, Redpath Capital

What our clients have to say…

The team at Gerald Edelman supported us throughout the transaction, liaising efficiently with both our internal team and our legal representatives. Their report was provided in a timely manner and covered all key aspects. From the start to the end of the acquisition process we felt confident that we were receiving the expert knowledge and support that we needed to support our decision-making. Excellent service all round, and we would highly recommend Gerald Edelman accountancy and would engage their services again for any future acquisitions.

Jayson Flegg

Managing Director and Shareholder of Flegg Projects

What our clients have to say…

We engaged Gerald Edelman to support with the Financial DD for our first acquisition. This was a complex situation, as the target business had numerous interrelated sub-entities with unique commercial and financial dynamics. The Gerald Edelman team quickly grasped these various complexities and simplified the situation for myself and for capital providers – ensuring a smooth completion process. Beyond the FDD scope alone, the team supported with negotiations at a critical stage of the transaction. They were available and responsive, even over the weekend, to help resolve a contentious point just a few days before closing. I am very grateful for the advice and guidance they provided throughout the process.

Kerim Baccari

Founder of Backer Group

What our clients have to say…

We have used Gerald Edelman as our advisors since inception of the Company, and so had no doubt that their Deal Advisory team would provide value throughout the deal, but did not appreciate just how valuable having the experienced team guiding us through the complexities of the deal would be. We truly couldn’t have done this without them and really thank them for their help and exceptional advice. We would recommend the team to anyone thinking of selling their business!

Nathan Wogman

Co-Founder and Managing Director, Taylor Mammon

What our clients have to say…

I am extremely glad that we engaged the Gerald Edelman team to advise on this transaction. Their advice has proven invaluable, not only ensuring that the deal completed smoothly but also achieving a substantial taxation saving for me and the other departing shareholders. I extend my sincerest thanks to Carl and Will, whose pragmatism, knowledge and drive was key to securing the successful result. I would strongly recommend them both as corporate finance advisors.
