Business acquisitions

Many business owners find that internal growth is insufficient to meet their objectives, and acquisitions may make sense.  Growing a company through acquisition requires discipline, skills, time, focus and a great deal of energy.  We assist business owners in evaluating the prospects of growing by acquisition, as well as helping with the valuation, negotiation, structuring and financing of the transaction.  We believe that successful transactions maximize our clients' value through a well-conceived plan followed by thorough, focused execution which maximizes shareholder value:  

- Developing acquisition objectives and economic return analysis

- Establishing focused acquisition criteria and realistic goals

- Identifying, researching and contacting an appropriate list of target candidates

- Assisting with the due diligence and business valuation process

- Evaluating and arranging financing appropriate alternatives

- Negotiating, structuring and overseeing the transaction closing
