It seems that M&A with publicly traded companies is way more complicated than privately owned businesses. What are the common obstacles or areas to be extra mindful when conducting M&A for private company?
I think the most important aspect where due diligence should pay much attention in a privately held target company is the exact involvement of the shareholders and relations with the company. Debtors and liabilities should be carefully checked during the due diligence phase by experts to see of there are any debts of or liabilities to the shareholders. Apart from that, a proper due diligence in all fields should take place and be more careful and scrutinising than in a pyblicly listed company as public companies tend to be more transparent.
