Here are my thoughts on how to get exit ready as a business owner.
What does it mean to be exit ready? Leaving a company takes as much effort and time as starting one. Whilst every business owner wants to end on a high, and ideally reach their desired valuation, there's a lot of work to be done in order to accomplish this. Remember: 80% of companies that want to sell, aren’t able to. That’s why exit readiness is crucial. But in order to be prepared: the business owner must be ready strategically, as well as emotionally. Consider these questions… - Are the fundamentals of the business working smoothly? - Do you have detailed accounts of the financial side of things? - Is the company growing at a steady rate? - Does the management structure and operations run well? - Is the owner personally and emotionally ready for the exit? In order to be part of the minority that are able to reach a successful exit, you must take all of these questions into account. Want to learn more about what we do at Open Equity?

What's your exit strategy? If you didn't put an exit strategy in place when you started your business, the next best time to do it is now. Let's be honest, unless you are on a specific journey to create, build, and sell up or float, the chances are you haven't given too much thought to how you might exit your business (other than in a box). Why is it important? Well, it's not just about financial planning, although that's important. Your exit strategy could inform your business strategy, tactics, and plan. Make sure you're going in the right direction. At i-boardroom, we work with business owners with a turnover of £1m to £20m to help get the right exit strategy in place, and then execute the plan. If you would like an informal and confidential discussion, please DM me or David Morton #business #businessexit #exitstrategy #businesssale #businesstransfer #mergersandacquisitions

Over the next three days, I will be covering the key aspects, benefits, and process of the majority recapitalization structure. This is the most common transaction type in lower mid-market M&A deals which involves restructuring a company's capital structure by selling a majority stake (more than 50%) to an external investor, such as a private equity firm, while the existing owners retain a minority interest. This type of transaction allows the current owners to realize a substantial portion of the value of their investment while continuing to participate in the company's future growth. What are the key aspects of a majority recapitalization: 1. Partial Liquidity Event: The existing owners sell a majority of their equity in the company, providing them with a significant cash payout. This allows them to monetize part of their investment while still retaining a meaningful ownership stake. 2. Continued Involvement: The existing owners and management team often continue to be involved in the business, maintaining operational control or significant influence over strategic decisions. This continuity can be beneficial for the company’s ongoing success and growth. 3. Capital for Growth: The new majority investor typically injects additional capital into the company. This capital can be used for various growth initiatives, such as expanding operations, entering new markets, making strategic acquisitions, or investing in new products and technologies. 4. Partnership with Experienced Investors: By partnering with a private equity firm or other sophisticated investors, the company gains access to valuable resources, expertise, and networks. This can enhance the company’s strategic capabilities and accelerate its growth trajectory. 5. Alignment of Interests: The structure of a majority recapitalization aligns the interests of the existing owners and the new investors. Both parties have a vested interest in the company’s success and future value creation, fostering collaboration and shared goals. #MajorityRecapitalization #M&A #M&ATransactions #DealMaking #TheRaivaxGroup #M&ANegotiations #M&AExperts #LowerMidMarketDeals #M&AAdvisor #Top1%M&AFirm

Premium Executive Coach | Strategy Consultant Catalyzing Growth | Positively Impacting Mid-Market Businesses.
The true cost of our endeavors, acquisitions, and pursuits is measured not in currency, but in the precious hours of life we spend on them. This perspective invites us to consider deeply the weight of our choices and the value we derive from where we allocate our time. As we make decisions, both professionally and personally, let us ask ourselves if the return is worthy of the life we exchange. As an executive coach, I advocate for a thoughtful balance that aligns one's investments of time with their ultimate life goals and purposes. #TimeIsCurrency #GetACoach #ValueBasedLiving
