We are currently supporting an executive team in the acquisition of an owner-managed company. This is an ideal moment to highlight the (once again confirmed) advantages of an MBO from the seller's perspective:
- Ensuring Continuity: The executives taking over the company are already deeply embedded in its operations. This ensures a seamless continuation and preserves the know-how.
- Maintaining Independence: An MBO protects the legal and operational independence of the company, retains locations, and generally secures jobs.
- Leveraging Trust: The existing trust between the seller and management facilitates the transaction and can efficiently resolve legal and financial challenges.
- Utilizing Inside Knwledge: The management team knows the company inside out. This familiarity typically ensures a fair and realistic valuation, especially compared to external buyers who often demand risk discounts.
- Preserving Confidentiality: Confidential information remains secure, minimizing the risk of information leakage to competitors.
- Saving Time and Costs: The management's familiarity with the company reduces the need for extensive due diligence, accelerating the overall process and lowering transaction costs.
