Active Buyer Searches

We routinely have potential acquirers approach us to say that they are searching for companies to buy.  These buyers tend to be of two general types:
  • Mid-size corporate or small business investors who seek a particular type of acquisition.
  • Professional investors, such as private equity groups, who are seeking companies to build and grow.  Often, they will want to match those companies up to companies in which they already own interest, for purposes of doing business collaboratively or possibly merging operations. 
Overall, if your company is financially healthy and operating in a customer market that is not in decline, we can almost certainly find a buyer and/or merger partner for it.  This is even more likely if the company has untapped growth potential that would not require major outlays of cash to realize it.

Alternately, there are many good companies today that find themselves with cash flow problems, and could benefit from recapitalization.  Often, the problem is the result of having taken on too much debt, relative to their ability to service it in an economic downturn.  In many cases, we can match companies like this with anxious investors seeking good companies in which to invest, leaving the existing management teams to run them.
 
If you are contemplating selling your company, in need of capital to realize untapped opportunities, or are facing a turnaround situation, please contact Dick Bransford via email or (925) 838-8150 to discuss the company's market potential.
