Getting to the next level:
Here are some of the reasons why others in your shoes have chosen private equity…
When business owners reach a critical point with their company and make the decision to sell all or part of the company, many decide to partner with a private equity firm to take their business to the next level.
Private equity can mean a lot of different things, but to us, it means investing in private companies to help them grow. If you’re a business owner or founder, taking on a partner is a big step, and can create a lot of uncertainty. We’re here to answer your questions about how all of this works and what it can mean for you.
To start, here are some of the main reasons why top-performing private companies are increasingly deciding to bring on a private equity partner:
-
To provide shareholders with partial or total liquidity.
-
To have “two bites at the apple” – partial liquidity in the first transaction, and a potentially bigger payoff in a later transaction.
-
To gain additional capital for expansion or acquisitions.
-
To get a strong partner with aligned interests who can help them grow their company.
-
To have a sounding board for their ideas and challenges – it doesn’t have to be “lonely at the top”.
-
To gain access to “best practices” from other leading companies, as well as senior-level contacts at potential customers and alliance partners.
-
To get help recruiting senior executives and building a strong Board of Directors.
-
To benefit from the financial sophistication of private equity partners.
-
To get experienced help identifying, analyzing, negotiating and integrating acquisitions.
