Buying or Selling a Business
|
Buying or selling a business is a complex undertaking for both vendor and purchaser. Many private company owners will only sell or purchase a single business in their lifetime. This decision will significantly affect the owners, their family, and employees for years to come. Because of this we develop a very personalized service to ensure we meet all personal and corporate goals of our clients.
To assist owners, we utilize a four staged approach, for both the sell-side and buy-side of a business. This phased approach ensures that:
A successful sell-side transaction will result in the seller maximizing value received while achieving their personal goals. A successful buy-side transaction will see a purchaser maximizing their value long-term. We find it is best to plan early. The sell-side process can often take six to nine months to complete from Phase II onwards, while Phase II onwards of the buy-side requires usually a minimum of three months to complete. Time to complete Phase I of these processes are very dependent on a companies unique situation, but in general the more time spent here increases the success in remaining Phases. |
SELL-SIDE PROCESS Phase I - Pre-sale planning Phase II - Preparation for Sale Phase III - Select Purchaser and Due Diligence Phase IV - Closing BUY-SIDE PROCESS Phase I - Strategy and Objectives Phase II - Identify and Value Targets Phase III - Due Diligence Phase IV - Closing For more information on our process feel free to download the file below.
