New Deal: K3 Advantage supports multi-acquisition international deal for Atombit

K3 Advantage has successfully delivered data-driven financial and tax due diligence on an international series of acquisitions for Atombit, backed by private equity firm Palatine.

A rarely seen multi-acquisition transaction across international businesses presented a unique growth opportunity for Atombit. However, it also demanded meticulous planning, rigorous data analysis, and commercial insight to manage the considerable risks and to recognise value, across continually moving parts – all executed under a single co-ordinated investment.

All acquisition and client financial data was underpinned with analytics that provided actionable insight.

“This was an ambitious transaction, and the precision and pace required from everyone involved was significant. K3 Advantage’s ability to navigate the financial and tax implications across multiple jurisdictions, and distil them into clear, confident conclusions, gave us the assurance we needed to back the deal.”

“This exciting deal was truly one of a kind, and it demanded a due diligence process that was as agile and ambitious as the acquisition strategy itself,” said Sam Phillips, Founding Managing Director of K3 Advantage. “We’re proud to have helped our client position itself as a market leader, especially knowing that for this AI-driven company, it was their data that played a critical role in this successful deal.”
