Our Buyside M&A Advisory Team
We work with buyers, from individual entrepreneurs to strategics and private equity funds seeking to acquire privately held companies. Our deal team will identify worthwhile investment and acquisition opportunities, structure and negotiate transactions on your behalf and manage the transaction process from the initial NDA through closing.
Attractive Purchase Price
We will test whether a target is appropriate for a strategic acquisition that will yield value to you, the buyer. Our team only recommends moving forward when a solution suits your acquisition goals and puts you in the best position for a favorable outcome.
Negotiating Better Terms
Contracts and terms of agreement are infamous for having complex jargon that is a challenge to decipher. We know how to translate and adjust the terms to your benefit while minimizing costs and risks.
Identifying and Engaging the Right Sellers
We locate and open up discussions with the companies that fit your acquisition goals. We do the research and present you with your best options so you can focus on preparing to buy.
Reducing Time-to-Close
The longer your transition goes on, the more expensive it becomes. Our extensive experience allows us to cut out the noise and get down to business, increasing the likelihood of closing and saving you costs in legal fees.

Enhancing Deal Structuring
It’s important to maximize the value of your acquisition and minimize tax implications. The goal is an ideal mix of lower cash at close, seller financing, retained equity, and earnout.
Confidentiality
We price confidentiality and ensure that outsiders to the acquisition do not know about the deal until the deal is done.
Mitigating Risks
We surface any hidden liabilities, regulatory or operational issues that could impact the value and future of your acquisition, addressing them upfront to save substantial costs down the line.
