PEM provided M&A and tax advice to Adcock Refrigeration.

What we did

PEM were appointed by Adcock Refrigeration to provide M&A and tax advice. We supported the vendors throughout the negotiation process.

Company background

Founded in 1964 by John Adcock, Adcock Refrigeration had grown to become a widely respected organisation within the cooling and heating industry with 230 staff across multiple regional offices.

What was special?

PEM provided analysis and advice to the Vendors relating to completion mechanism, net working capital targets and input on the SPA drafting as required. This resulted in a significant uplift on day one consideration from the initial calculations.

Deal structure

Bowmer & Kirkland acquired 100% of Adcock Refrigeration and Air Conditioning from the Vendors.

Legal advice to the vendor was provided by Laurence Evans and Joe Greenstock from HCR Hewitsons.
