Business advisory.
You went into business for the business, not to build cash flow spreadsheets or work out what it's worth. At Newton & Co, we give you the numbers and the thinking behind the big decisions, so you can make them with your eyes open.
What it is, and who it's for.
Business advisory covers the bigger decisions: what your cash flow looks like over the next year, what your company's actually worth, and what a sale or exit could look like when you're ready for one. It's less about the day-to-day books and more about where the business is heading.
It suits owners planning ahead, whether that's raising finance, thinking about a sale, or simply wanting a clearer picture of what's coming so there are no surprises.
What we handle for you.
Everything below is built around the decisions you're actually facing.
A clear picture of what's coming in and going out, so you can plan with confidence rather than guesswork.
A realistic figure for what your business is worth, whether that's for a sale, an investor or your own planning.
Help thinking through timing, structure and what a sale would actually mean for you.
The numbers explained in terms you can use, not just a spreadsheet.
The same person throughout, not a different face each time.
Three directors at Newton & Co. You'll know all three by name.
Paul Martin FMAAT and Matthew Batey FCCA lead on this for limited companies, and you'll deal with one of them directly rather than being passed between different people. Over 30 years working with North East businesses means we've seen most of what a sale or an exit involves.
Direct contact with a director
No call centre, no different face every time.
Numbers you can actually use
Explained plainly, not buried in jargon.
Start with a conversation, not a spreadsheet.
Tell us what decision you're working towards.
Your accounts, your cash flow and what's driving them.
Projections, a valuation, or an exit plan, depending on what you need.
In plain English, so you know what it means for your decision.
Things people ask.
Can't see yours? and we'll happily talk it through.
What's a cash flow projection actually for?
It shows what's likely to come in and go out over the months ahead, so you can spot a gap before it's a problem, or plan a big spend with confidence.
Can you tell me what my company's worth?
Yes. We'll work out a realistic valuation based on your accounts and your sector, whether that's for a sale, an investor or your own planning.
I'm thinking about selling. Where do I start?
With a conversation. We'll talk through your timing, what buyers tend to look for, and what a sale would mean for you before anything's set in motion.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, a set of projections is a different job to a full exit strategy. We'll be straight with you about what's involved, and what it'll cost, before anything starts.
Often paired with.
