Separation and carve-outs
A separation of a division of a company (Carve-out) in order to refocus on their core business or to get rid of nonprofitable service or product lines can be a very complex task. A successful separation requires robust preparations of operational, financial and other aspects related to the separation in parallel with ensuring the daily business will remain strong.
How we can help
We have local Swedish separation and carve-out expertise well connected and working closely with Deloitte’s global network of separation practitioners. Our teams have wide industry experience and leverages our functional expertise to drive performance and results in every key M&A-related function: project management, commercial activity optimization, operations and supply chain, IT systems, human capital management, and finance activities
To ensure successful separations we deploy a structured approach to meet Day 1 requirements, positioning for stability after the separation, and to secure the strategic viability of the stand-alone company. In most divestitures, we continue to serve an organization following the closing date to ensure a full transition of operations and technology assets to the buyer or the stand-alone company. During this period, sellers may provide agreed-upon services under Transition Services Agreements (TSAs) and remove inefficiencies (e.g., stranded costs) from their operations, which we may help structure. We can provide a tailored plan based on our experiences that can save time and mitigate risk at each step of the separation.
