Sell-Side M&A Advisory
Selling Your Business | Superior Execution to Achieve Optimum Results
When selling your business, you can only obtain the best possible transaction — price and terms — by being meticulous in preparing your company for market. Otherwise, you risk the possibility of a deal ending or taking too long to close, or experiencing unexpected adverse events that give a buyer the advantage.
Proper preparation, professional presentation, and the ability to reach qualified strategic and financial buyers are critical to a deal’s success.
Our M&A team has a proven track record of exceeding client expectations with selling companies over decades and throughout a variety of economic conditions. We have significant experience advising clients during various sell-side scenarios, including:
- Broad Auction Process: Full sell-side process aimed at reaching every capable buyer.
- Targeted Process: Limited sell-side process focused on a select number of potential buyers.
- Negotiated Transaction: Used when a seller has already received an offer, or expects to receive an offer, to maximize value, increase certainty to close and drive the most favorable deal terms for the seller.
Indispensable Experience
Our M&A experts collaborate with business owners during the preparation phase to identify and address critical issues that can affect a deal, to help:
- Resolve business concerns proactively, position EBITDA adjustments favorably and strengthen the credibility of financial and business information
