The Credential
Tunneys worked with the CFO of a PE backed SaaS company (c£30m) in coordinating financial modelling, data and FP&A throughout financial and commercial due diligence and investment banking processes. Ensuring the validity, accuracy and consistency of assumptions and financial forecasts provided through the data room and ongoing investor Q&A responses, Tunneys supported the deal from origination to completion.
How We Helped
Prior to engaging Tunneys, the private equity owner of HotelSaaSCo* had engaged a set of FDD, CDD and investment banking advisors to take the company to market and drive a full exit sale. Budgetting & Data Modelling within the company needed to be replaced while maintaining consistency around the data, assumptions and forecasts taken to market.
Tunneys reviewed provided new FP&A and data analysis assets and new iterations for internal financial modelling for budgetting while reviewing and ensuring consistency in the transaction modelling taken to market by investment banking advisors. Tunneys also supported ongoing adhoc investor Q&A throughout the sale process.
