Why does gross margin matter in a business acquisition? Discover on our blog: https://lnkd.in/ezcUqY2r At the 2021 ADI Annual Conference, Robert Furniss-Roe, co-founder and chief executive officer of Samson & Surrey, highlighted the crucial role of understanding gross margin during acquisition. He stated, “The reason why gross margin matters not only for building the business but also for people looking at the business is because it’s really the best summary of the overall health of what you built.” Heaven Hill Brands, the largest independent, family-owned and operated spirits producer in the U.S., acquired Crafted customer Samson & Surrey in 2022. Gross margin is a critical metric that reflects net sales after taxes and your ability to manage costs. Here’s why it matters: 🔹Reflects Business Health: It shows how well you’ve managed your business, balancing sales and costs. 🔹Attracts Buyers: A substantial gross margin indicates efficient operations and profitability, making your business more attractive. 🔹Supports Long-Term Revenue Generation: Ensures sustainability by operating within a narrow band of gross margin. #BusinessAcquisition #GrossMargin #FinancialHealth #BevAlc

I help entrepreneurs sell their companies for more money and exit on their own terms through my 4-step Valuation to Victory Process.
Curious how a young entrepreneur transformed his cleaning business into a regional powerhouse and sold it for 15% more than expected? See below for the full case study to discover the remarkable story of how our strategic matchmaking led to a swift, successful exit and a bright future for both the seller and the buyer.
Our determined young client transformed his commercial cleaning business into a renowned entity within his region, boasting 600 loyal customers. When the time came to sell, he sought a buyer who shared his values of performance, exceptional customer service, and a solid foundation for future growth. The story concludes with a remarkable success: we connected him with a buyer from our network who was eager to establish legacy wealth and transition from corporate America. With extensive national sales leadership experience, the buyer was poised to further elevate revenue. Our client happily accepted a purchase price 15% higher than expected, with a reduced need for seller financing and significant SBA financing from the buyer. To top it off, our assistance enabled the former owner to exit the business sooner post-closing. For the full case study, click here ➡️https://bit.ly/3rn0K8Z

For every acquisition that materializes, there are at least 15-20 that don’t 🤯 While private equity interest in the roofing industry is significant, not every company is poised for a transaction. We seek to partner with companies that meet these key criteria (and more): 1. Cultural Alignment: Companies that prioritize their employees, customers, and communities. 2. Revenue Focus: $10M+ in revenue with a primary focus on roofing, though additional services like siding, windows, and gutters are understandable. 3. Brand and Leadership: A strong brand presence in an attractive market, backed by robust leadership. In this high-interest era, embrace the phone calls, emails, LinkedIn messages, and more. The interest in your business is a testament to the great work you've done. If you believe your company fits this profile and you’re considering selling, let’s connect. Reach out to me directly to explore how we can achieve great things together 🤝
