Mergers & Acquisitions Advisory Services
For the mid-sized business, Horizon Brokers & Consultants offers a wide range of services to assist those businesses grow. What is a “mid-size” business? Most often the industry defines one by the amount of sales and/or EBITDA that the business generates. For example, a business with sales of at least $ 3 million and/or an EBITDA of at least $ 1 million is typically considered mid-sized.
While it’s helpful to quantify the meaning of mid-size for discussion across industries, we find it limiting in the minds of most business owners.
As a result, below are the criteria we use to determine the fit of your business with our approach to the M&A advisory services that we offer:
- Your business is privately held with a limited number of controlling shareholders
- You have a strategy to improve the company’s EBITDA through either acquisition or divestiture
- The company is currently profitable and has a healthy balance sheet
- The company is well capitalized
- There is more complexity in your business or industry than a main street business; examples include the geographic markets served, pace of technological change, the sales channels involved and the regulatory environment
- Your management and/or financial teams are currently limited in their skills and experience to execute on this strategy
If your business has grown organically up until now and is ready to execute a new strategy to further improve company earnings through either acquisition and/or divestiture, then it’s more likely than not that your management and financial teams have not been through this process. Horizon Brokers & Consultants can fill this gap by providing the advisory services and expertise required to implement your business growth strategies.
