Management Buyout

Selling all or part of your business to your key managers can be a very attractive exit option. The business stays in your "extended family." There is less risk to the business because your management team is not disrupted. In addition your team already knows the business well and can do a good job selling its merits to a lender or equity investor.   However, a management buyout or leveraged buyout is not always the right answer. Your management team may not have sufficient capital to fund the transaction. Management may not have enough "executive experience" to function without your leadership. More importantly the transaction may not provide you with the financial security you need or want during retirement. We have the expertise to help you with strategic planning, financial modeling, business valuation, as well as arranging debt and equity financing.
