Comprehensive M&A Analyses – Predictable and from a single central source at CNX Transaction Partners

CNX Transaction Partners is a mid-sized M&A boutique focused on company sales. In the early stages of mandates—especially during acquisition and deal origination—fast and well-founded company analyses are crucial.

Before using StrategyBridge AI, these analyses were primarily manual. A larger team of analysts and interns researched information across the internet, individual databases, and publicly available sources.

Key challenges included:

High time expenditure for research and consolidation of information

Uncertain planning—analyses could take hours or days

Limited database access, as many solutions were expensive and uneconomical for a boutique

Different sources with conflicting results

Media breaks and error-prone processes

In practice, this sometimes meant analyses were shortened or even omitted—resulting in noticeable compromises in the quality of client engagement.

Today, CNX Transaction Partners primarily uses StrategyBridge AI in acquisition and the early phase of company analysis.

The tool is used for:

Quick initial analyses of potential mandates

Well-founded preparation of pitch presentations

Company valuations based on comparable multiples

Longlist creation for potential buyers or targets

Market and competitor analyses to position a company

Impact in daily work:

Significantly higher speed, especially under time pressure

Predictable analyses, with reliable results delivered quickly

More comprehensive analyses without shortcuts or omissions

Unified data source instead of consolidating multiple separate sources

A concrete example: a pitch presentation had to be prepared within three days. With StrategyBridge AI, a complete, well-founded analysis was delivered—without all-nighters and without compromising quality. The pitch was won.
