Assistance in Selling
Your Company
For Sellers
Lenvest provides financial and strategic
advisory services to owners of closely-held companies when the time is
right to sell their company. Lenvest also provides financial
advisory services to companies wishing to divest a subsidiary or sell the
subsidiary to its management team.
Lenvest helps clients determine how much
their company is worth, and how best to market to the appropriate buyers.
Lenvest frequently helps prepare the selling memorandum and confidentially
contacts strategic buyers who may be willing to pay the highest price.
With our client's approval, Lenvest may
contact Buyers who have previously expressed interest in acquiring a similar
business. In other cases, confidential advertising may be required
to identify a buyer. However, in all cases, only buyers approved
by our client will be told the identity of our client's company.
We strive to never broadcast that a company is For Sale, since it will
tend to only diminish its perceived value. Every buyer wants to discover
a hidden diamond. Few are willing to pay top dollar for a "shopped
around" business.
The principals at Lenvest have significant
experience in the tactics of negotiation essential to the completion of
successful transactions. In addition, we have the expertise
to deal with the non-financial issues associated with every change of ownership.
Since a closely-held business may often represent the life’s work and principle
asset of its owners, understanding their unique needs is of paramount importance
in negotiating personally tailored transactions. Lenvest works with
owners through every stage of a frequently lengthy and complex process
—from analysis of the initial decision to sell, through transaction closing;
including:
Preparation of the comprehensive selling
memorandum
Determination of business value
Selection and Qualification of prospective
buyers
Negotiate the terms and conditions of
sale
Coodinate the details of the sale with
our clients tax and legal advisors
Keep the due diligence review moving toward
closing.
