Workflow

Step 1: Define Target Profile

Target characteristics:

Industry / sector
Revenue size
Geography
Growth profile
Ownership structure (listed / unlisted, controlling shareholder)

Step 2: Build Strategic Buyer Universe

Strategic buyer categories:

Category	Rationale	Examples
同业龙头 (Industry peers)	Horizontal integration, market share	白酒: 头部酒企
上下游整合 (Vertical integration)	Supply chain control	车企 → 电池厂
多元化集团 (Conglomerates)	Diversification	华润, 招商局
国企整合 (SOE consolidation)	Policy-driven consolidation	央企/国企
民企扩张 (Private expansion)	Growth through M&A	美的, 海尔

For each potential strategic buyer:

Strategic rationale (why would they buy?)
Fit assessment (complementarity, synergies)
Financial capacity (cash, debt capacity)
Historical M&A activity
Regulatory approval likelihood

Step 3: Build Financial Sponsor Universe

Financial buyer categories:

Category	Description	Typical China Players
私募股权 (PE)	Traditional buyout funds	高瓴, 红杉, 鼎晖, 中信产业基金
产业基金 (Industry funds)	Sector-specific	国家集成电路产业投资基金
并购基金 (Buyout funds)	A-share focused	中金, 中信, 华泰联合
国资平台 (SOE investment arms)	Policy-driven	地方国资, 国投

Screening criteria:

Fund size vs deal size
Sector focus alignment
Track record in China
Currency availability (RMB vs USD)
Hold period preference
Regulatory approval track record

Step 4: Assess Buyer Fit

Fit scoring matrix:

Buyer	Strategic Fit	Financial Capacity	Reg. Risk	Historical Activity	Overall Score
	1-5	1-5	1-5	1-5

Scoring criteria:

Strategic fit: How natural is the combination?
Financial capacity: Can they afford it?
Regulatory risk: Likelihood of approval?
Historical activity: Do they acquire actively?

Step 5: Prioritize Outreach

Priority tiers:

Tier	Criteria	Approach
Tier 1	High strategic fit, strong capacity, low reg risk	Direct outreach first
Tier 2	Good fit, some hurdles	Secondary outreach
Tier 3	Possible fit, significant challenges	Contingency / backup

Outreach considerations:

Relationship warmth (existing connections)
Cultural/language compatibility
Deal team familiarity with buyer
Expected timeline

Step 6: Document the List

Standard buyer list format:

【目标公司】潜在收购方名单

一、战略买方

1. [Buyer Name]
   属性：[国企/民企/外企]
   逻辑：[Why they would buy]
   历史并购：[Relevant deals]

   优先级：[Tier 1/2/3]

2. ...

   规模：[AUM]
   重点行业：[Sector focus]
   投资偏好：[Deet size, hold period]
   优先级：[Tier 1/2/3]
