Deal Readiness Program
From strategic assessment to full transaction execution
​
Is your company deal-ready?
​
For life-science companies facing a difficult funding and dealmaking environment, the question is not simply whether an asset has potential. The more important question is whether it is genuinely ready to attract a partner, licensee, investor or acquirer.
​
Based on 30+ years of dealmaking in the biopharma industry and very deep analytics using our SAGEIQ platform, Sage can rapidly assess whether a strategic transaction is credible now, identify the most relevant counterparties and define the most effective path from readiness to execution.
​
Sage Healthcare’s Deal Readiness Service helps life-science companies determine whether a licensing, partnering, M&A or strategic financing transaction is achievable — and what must be done to improve the probability of success.
​
Strong assets do not automatically produce successful transactions. Companies may have good science but still face:
-
unclear transaction positioning;
-
incomplete clinical, regulatory or IP narratives;
-
uncertain valuation expectations;
-
poorly prioritised partner lists;
-
previous outreach that has stalled;
-
limited cash runway; or
-
disagreement among management, boards and investors over the best strategic route.
The Deal Readiness Process is a focused entry programme designed to convert uncertainty into a clear transaction decision and a practical route to market.

​
The process begins with a focused, fixed-fee Deal Readiness Review, providing management and boards with a clear assessment of partnerability, strategic positioning, valuation metrics, transaction options, target counterparties and key gaps.
​
Where the opportunity is ready, Sage can then transition directly into a full strategic transaction mandate, leading global outreach, partner engagement, diligence, negotiation and transaction completion.
