In order to evaluate a target company, it is important to understand its balance sheet. As a lawyer, you want to understand the correlation to the purchase price mechanism in the SPA.

The first part of this seminar shows you the basic structure of a company in a practical and compact form through a business simulation. In this business game, swiftly coordinated by our external speaker and business coach Mr. Juergen Rismondo, you run your own company and get a practical overview of the most important business figures for the analysis and control of a company. The business simulation keeps you engaged through discussion, strategizing, analysis and teamwork as you have to deal with the consequences of your business decisions. The result of this is a higher level of learning made possible with business simulations.

The second part of the session then focuses on purchase price mechanisms and how specific balance sheet information can be reflected therein. In the end what matters is the price and you want to help your clients putting their pricing formula on paper. This is where you should be prepared to roll your sleeves and put your drafting skills to the test, since we will run through practical exercises aimed at refining your skills in connection to the drafting price adjustment mechanisms.
