Acquisition Process
Our 5 step process to acquire companies
We take between 2 weeks to 8 weeks to complete an acquisition on average. The time to acquire depends on the complexity of the deal, the size of the company and the responsiveness of the entrepreneur.
In our experience the due diligence process takes the most time, because the business owner tends to be strapped for time to provide access to all the documents and the content required for us to conduct a complete review of the financials, team, customer review and technology systems.
1. Deal Origination
Our team proactively identifies potential investment opportunities through market research, industry connections, and partnerships. We leverage our network and market insights to find companies that align with our investment criteria.
2. Screening and Evaluation
We conduct a preliminary analysis of potential targets, assessing their financial health, market position, and growth potential. This initial screening helps us determine which opportunities are worth pursuing further.
3. Due Diligence
In this critical phase, we perform a thorough investigation of the target company's financials, operations, and legal standing. Our due diligence process ensures we have a comprehensive understanding of the business and any potential risks.
4. Negotiation
We engage in negotiations with the founders / owner / operator, focusing on structuring a deal that benefits both parties. Our goal is to reach mutually agreeable terms that reflect the true value and potential of the business.
5. Funding and Close
Once negotiations are finalized, we secure the necessary financing to complete the acquisition. We work diligently to finalize all legal documents and close the transaction efficiently, ensuring a smooth transition for all stakeholders.
