A studio service
M&A pitch deck design where EBITDA bridges close transactions.
In M&A and corporate divestitures, transactions are won or lost in how clearly quality of earnings and strategic value are communicated. We design sell-side management presentations, confidential information memorandums (CIM), and board decks that withstand the most rigorous buyer due diligence.
Investment
Three ways to raise.
Fixed price, fixed scope. Pick the tier that matches your raise — from a single deal deck to a full capital-raise kit.
Essential
A sharp investor deck at the length most decks should be — you bring the content, we design it.
5–7 business days
- 12–15 designed slides
- Core investor structure (problem → ask)
- Your brand applied throughout
- Custom charts (market, traction)
- 1 revision round
- Editable PowerPoint source files
Standard
The full raise: we shape the narrative from your inputs at the length investors actually read.
Priority · 4–5 business days
- 15–20 designed slides
- We build the narrative from your inputs
- Full custom chart set
- Matching 1-page investor teaser
- 2 revision rounds
- Editable PowerPoint + source
Complete
A comprehensive deck for a detailed raise or a sales process — full appendix, plus a condensed version. Partnering and out-licensing packages are scoped separately.
Rush available
- 25–40 slides — deck + appendix
- Custom graphics & data-room slides
- Condensed sales version of the deck
- 3 revision rounds, white-glove
- 30-minute strategy call
- All source files
These are starting points for the scope listed, not a maximum. Larger or more specialised work — a full appendix set, regulated or clinical material, or a partnering package built to a conference deadline — is scoped and quoted per project.
N° 01The M&A challenge
Four ways sell-side decks discount deal valuation.
01
Unclear adjusted EBITDA bridges
Buyers immediately discount pro-forma adjustments if non-recurring expenses, owner add-backs, and run-rate synergies are not rigorously itemized and visualized.
02
Buried strategic synergies
Acquirers pay premium multiples for accretive strategic synergies. If revenue cross-sell and cost reduction hypotheses are vague, you receive commoditized multiple offers.
03
Unaddressed customer concentration
If your top 5 customers represent 60% of revenue, failing to present cohort retention, contract duration, and expansion data creates immediate buyer hesitation.
04
Dense, unreadable financial schedules
Screenshots of 80-row Excel models look amateurish. High-value transactions demand polished, professional financial data formatting.
N° 02Transaction materials
The deliverables that drive competitive bidding.
01
Confidential Information Presentation (CIM)
Comprehensive 25-35 slide presentation covering company history, market tailwinds, operational moat, and financial profiles.
02
Management presentation deck
The live meeting deck used by the CEO and CFO when hosting prospective strategic acquirers and private equity buyers.
03
Adjusted EBITDA & revenue waterfall
Audit-grade visual bridge diagrams reconciling reported GAAP/IFRS figures with normalized earnings power.
04
Strategic buyer teaser
Anonymized one-pager and 5-slide blind profile to generate inbound IOIs across banking networks.

Questions
The answers we give most often.
- What is the difference between a startup deck and an M&A deck?
- A startup deck sells potential and future growth. An M&A deck sells audited historical reality, normalized cash flows, recurring contract value, and post-merger integration synergies.
- Can you work under strict Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs)?
- Yes. All M&A projects are executed under mutual bilateral NDAs with strict air-gapped file storage and confidential asset handling.
- Do you design EBITDA reconciliation bridges and financial schedules?
- Yes. We translate raw financial model tabs into clean, executive-ready bridge charts, unit economics breakdowns, and waterfall diagrams.
- What is the turnaround time for transaction materials?
- Standard management presentations take 7 to 10 business days. Expedited transaction delivery is available for urgent LOI or diligence deadlines.
