Thanks Annette. You did a sterling job at helping us over the line with the MBO- I honestly don't think we would have made it without you. I very much enjoyed working with you and learned a fair bit along the way.

AHV were invaluable during the sale of Gamesman. The outcome was highly satisfactory to the shareholders and I have no doubt that we would not have achieved this excellent result were it not for Andrew's incisive input and guidance.

We had received unsolicited interest from potential acquirers and we hired AHV to analyse these and assist us in forming our exit strategy. AHV explained the pros and cons of each possible strategy in a clear fashion and not simply limited to the valuation. In particular, Hanif continues to advise us on our ongoing strategy and is always on hand to discuss ideas.
