Curious about merger models? A merger model, also known as an M&A (mergers and acquisitions) model, analyses what happens when two companies merge, whether as equals or through an acquisition. It measures the financial impact of the deal, focusing on earnings per share (EPS), shareholder value, and cost savings or benefits from combining operations. The model brings together financial data from both companies and adjusts for factors such as cost savings, integration expenses, and changes to debt or equity. This provides a clear picture of the combined company’s financial performance and helps address challenges, opportunities, and strategic decisions in mergers and acquisitions. Want to explore how merger modelling can benefit your business? Let’s talk. #WeAreGridlines #MergerModel #CorporateFinance

“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.” — Ryunosuke Satoro A few weeks ago we took a step back from the day to day of client delivery and growth for our annual offsite. Taking time to connect. Time to pause and reflect. When we talk about growth at Gridlines, we don’t just mean growth in headcount or revenue. We also mean how we are growing as individuals, how we relate to one another, and how we function as a team. It’s been inspiring to see our people grow—not just in numbers, but in character. Here’s to the team that makes Gridlines what it is. #WeAreGridlines #Teamwork #Offsite #ModelAudit #ModelBuild
