Corporate Development Services
You can consider me your outsourced corporate development department. Most middle market companies cannot afford or justify investment in a corporate development staff. I provide corporate development services to clients who desire to grow through acquisition. Those clients generally have revenues in excess of $20 million. They simply need a seasoned professional to help them find and successfully acquire a quality business. After the acquisition, they may not acquire another business for a couple of years, at which time they come back to me. In the meantime, I monitor potential acquisition candidates for the client in case one should decide to sell.
In this context, I provide the following corporate development services:
• Serve as an advisory board member to help management build value
• Develop strategic plans
• Prepare acquisition growth plans
• Identify potential acquisition candidates
• Initiate discussion with candidates to determine their interest in selling
• Maintain contacts with potential acquisition candidates
• Develop a value on the client’s company and any acquisition candidate
• Analyze the financial implications of any potential transaction
• Negotiate the terms and conditions of a transaction
• Outline and manage the due diligence process
• Develop a package to secure funding for a transaction
• Manage the transaction process
• Develop and execute a post-acquisition integration program.
Contact me to discuss how I can assist you with your corporate development efforts.
Private Equity Buyers
I assist corporate players and private equity firms in identifying quality businesses to acquire. I will help you find a new platform business or an add-on for an existing platform. For private equity firms that desire a more proactive approach, I suggest you consider my corporate development services, where I will undertake a targeted acquisition search. If you would like a proposal regarding these services, please contact me.
