You may request our
firm represent you in a proactive buy-side representation.
If we accept you as a client we will represent you in a search
for target companies worldwide that meet your criteria. There
are typically a dozen or so different criteria (location, revenues,
SIC codes, number of employees, etc.) that we set forth as
parameters in our research to compile a focused list of suitable
target companies. Typically 98% of these target companies are
not formally represented by an intermediary as being available
for acquisition or an equity investment. This can result in
acquiring a company at a discount to market value and without
any competing buyers at the table. We will directly contact
the target companies we identify on behalf of our client. In
the past we have helped clients close a transaction with a
company from those we contacted on the first day, while in
other cases we have had to solicit over 4,500 targets to find
a suitable company for our client to ultimately acquire. There
is a $350 initial review fee to perform an analysis of your
objectives, motivation, financial and operational ability.
If we determine that it is likely to result in a successful
outcome and accept the engagement we will then begin the process
of putting together a complete package on our buy-side client
and begin soliciting interest from the target companies individually
and one at a time. The fee for this work varies by scope and
complexity but typically ranges between $9,500 and $15,000.
Upon a successful closing our success/completion fee is due,
but only when our client has actually closed a transaction
with a target company. This success/completion fee typically
is on a sliding scale based on the Gross
Transaction Value at 10% of the first million, 8% of the
second million, 6% of the third million, and 4% of every million
thereafter. (For large transactions this fee can be reduced
down to only 2%). This fee is only due upon successfully closing
a transaction, otherwise there would be no completion fee due
us. . |
