Better divestments – from design to delivery

Navigating risk and operating at speed, EY teams help you create long-term value through better divestments – from design to delivery.

What EY can do for you

We offer deep insight to help you get answers:

What path will you navigate to carve out sale success?
How can divesting fuel your future growth?
What is driving the appetite for divestments?
How do you make the decision to divest?
Do you have the right tools and talent to maximize your divestment outcome?

Leading companies consider divestments as fundamental to their business strategy – they focus on selling assets in the same rigorous way they focus on acquisitions. These companies often carve out or spin off a business unit and redeploy capital raised to strengthen their core business and reinvest in high-growth areas.

Family-owned companies may sell their businesses for comfortable fund retirement, to support future generations or to find a partner who will protect the legacy of the business. And, middle-market businesses and private equity firms also sell entire companies to monetize their investment. Our dedicated, multifunctional, diverse divestiture consulting professionals can help you optimize your portfolio, and improve divestment strategy and execution.

Our Divestiture consulting services that span the transactions life cycle are:

Strategy and portfolio management
Equity story development and delivery
Separation planning
Negotiation and execution
Optimization of the remaining business

How EY can help

Strategy consulting

EY-Parthenon professionals recognize that CEOs and business leaders are tasked with achieving maximum value for their organizations’ stakeholders in this transformative age. We challenge assumptions to design and deliver strategies that help improve profitability and long-term value.

Corporate finance

We help corporates, private equity, governments, sovereign wealth funds, private and family businesses, and educational institutions with their key financial issues.

Buy and integrate

We help enable strategic growth through better integrated and operationalized mergers and acquisitions, JVs and alliances. In particular, we help companies refine their growth strategy, perform deal sourcing, conduct diligence and valuation, and implement M&A integration.

Divestment strategy: sell and separate

Portfolio management via divesting can help improve value from carve-out, spin-off or JV.

Reshaping results

We help you respond to the challenges of COVID -19, providing trusted leadership in these urgent, critical and complex situations to help you recover and preserve value for a better future.

Transaction tax, law and workforce advisory services

For companies considering a transaction, it is critical to develop a holistic strategy to properly react, recover and shape their futures. Focusing on the tax, legal, and workforce consequences of transformational change, we help you maximize value with integrated solutions.
