We find you the right deal and get it done | Advised on $8B+ in M&A | Close 2-3 acquisitions/year without a full in-house team | Sell your business at the best value without losing focus on operations
Sometimes the numbers are only a part of the puzzle. I did an audit of some of our past client conversations. Here's a short list of the options, context, motivations, and pressures that some of our clients faced when making directions about the future of their business (and there are other areas that I haven’t listed). My main takeaway... The finance part, the valuation, and the deal process are important. But business owners have more on their minds - it's also about their employees, family, legacy, and finding a good home for the business they've built or run for many years. A good deal for our clients gets them the intangibles and keeps them in alignment with their values and priorities, in addition to getting them the best valuation. #mergersandacquisitions

Forget "Shark Tank" – real dealmaking happens in the high-stakes world of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A). If you're a go-getter with a blend of strategic brilliance and financial finesse, a career in M&A might be your calling. Today, let's lift the veil on this dynamic sphere and explore why it's more than just crunching numbers and shaking hands. Think of M&A as a thrilling chess game: The board: Global corporations, budding startups, complex industries – your playground is diverse and ever-evolving. The pieces: You'll analyze financial landscapes, identify synergies, and orchestrate mergers or acquisitions that shape the future of companies. The checkmate: Witnessing the birth of industry giants, securing lucrative deals, and leaving your mark on the business landscape – that's the adrenaline rush of M&A. But it's not just about the thrill: The grind is real: Be prepared for late nights, meticulous due diligence, and pressure-cooker negotiations. Patience, precision, and a razor-sharp focus are your essential tools. The team makes the dream: Collaboration is key. You'll work with lawyers, bankers, accountants, and industry experts in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. Communication, adaptability, and leadership skills are crucial. The learning never stops: Every deal is a masterclass in business acumen, market trends, and strategic thinking. You'll constantly upskill, expand your knowledge, and become a well-rounded business strategist. So, are you ready to join the dealmakers? Sharpen your analytical skills: Finance, accounting, and valuation tools are your weapons of choice. Hone your number-crunching prowess and financial modeling expertise. Network like a pro: Build relationships with industry players, attend conferences, and connect with fellow deal enthusiasts. Your network is your net worth in M&A. Don't be afraid to ask: Seek mentorship from experienced M&A professionals. Learn from their successes and failures, and get invaluable insights into the world of dealmaking. The M&A world awaits those with the strategic mind, the financial acumen, and the unwavering drive to close the deal. If you're ready to play the game, buckle up – the future of business is waiting for your next move. #M&ACareer #Dealmaking #BusinessStrategy #Finance #CareerGoals #LetsGetMerging

Investors today expect companies to deliver the “best of both worlds”: simultaneously invest for longer-term growth and fully deliver on near-term guidance and analyst consensus. As a result, corporate leaders need to determine the right trade-offs for their companies – and clearly share their rationale with investors to manage expectations. Some key results from the latest survey in BCG’s Investor Pulse Check series: → 70% highlighted interest rates and the Federal Reserve’s policy as a top-3 macroeconomic concern → 84% of investors want companies to prioritize long-term investments → 78% of investors want companies to consider/prioritize divestitures → 75% support companies making tuck-in acquisitions, and 65% even support larger acquisitions that temporarily increase leverage Dive into the full breakdown of these insights and more: https://lnkd.in/enDkb2md By Jeff Kotzen, Hady Farag, Julien Ghesquieres, Gregory Rice, Dan Riff, Callan Sainsbury, and Rachna Sachdev

We survey PMs and senior analysts regularly to understand their views on the markets, the macro environment and their priorities around capital allocation/financial policies. We also ask investors how companies should balance near term investment with developing long-term advantage. During the pandemic, investors gave companies a lot of latitude on making numbers while they repositioned to address various customer, employee and supply chain challenges. Today, investors expect both - make the right investments and make your numbers.
