A specialist boutique for the defense sector: independent business valuation, full due diligence, IP valuation and target origination. We respond to market inquiries with a deeply networked bench across Polish and Central & Eastern European defense — built for primes and investment funds.
ematch defense is a sector-focused advisory boutique operating where capital, technology and national security intersect. We combine financial rigour — valuation, modelling, due diligence — with on-the-ground intelligence across the Polish and CEE defense industrial base.
Because the region's most relevant targets are private, founder-led or carve-outs, deals are won through relationships and discretion. We are built for exactly that: a senior, conflict-light team that originates, screens and stress-tests opportunities the broad market never sees.
Enterprise and asset-level valuation built on income (DCF), asset-based and market-comparable approaches, supported by full financial review.
Legal, corporate, commercial, IP, operational and security diligence — surfacing the risks that move price and the conditions that close a deal.
Target identification and discreet market sounding across the regional defense base, on behalf of acquirers and financial sponsors.
A single bench covering the full transaction question — what a defense business is worth, what could go wrong, and where the next opportunity sits.
Standalone valuation of the company and its key assets, defensible to investors, boards and counterparties.
Full-scope review of the target company — the work that converts a thesis into a price and a set of conditions.
Identification, verification and valuation of intellectual property and its impact on enterprise value.
Finding, qualifying and approaching the right businesses across Poland and CEE — discreetly.
A clear read of historic performance and the drivers that underpin every valuation conclusion.
Sector context that frames value — where the target sits, who it competes with, and where it can grow.
Defense value lives in details a standard corporate review overlooks. Our diligence and valuation work covers the factors that actually determine whether a target is acquirable, fundable and strategically relevant.
Every engagement triangulates value across multiple methods and pressure-tests it against legal, technical and commercial reality — so conclusions hold up in front of investment committees and counterparties.
We align on objectives, agree the value standard and assemble the information base — financials, contracts, IP register, clearances and technical documentation.
Parallel review across legal & corporate, IP, financial, commercial and operational workstreams — each surfacing the issues that move price.
Value built on at least two of: DCF, asset-based and comparable methods — delivered as a clear, decision-ready report with a documented bridge to value.
Whether you build defense capability or back it, the question is the same — what is it worth, and what could go wrong. We answer both, fast.
For strategic acquirers seeking technology, capacity, talent or vertical integration across the regional supply base.
For PE, growth and special-situations investors looking for proprietary defense and dual-use opportunities in PL & CEE.
Our work spans the defense and dual-use space — enterprise and IP valuation, full due diligence and buy-side origination. Given the sensitivity of the sector, engagement details and references are shared selectively.
Representative engagements, references and case detail are provided on demand, under NDA — disclosed only to qualified counterparties once a conversation is under way.
End-to-end support for acquirers and funds — from target identification and market sounding through valuation and diligence to deal support.
