Buyouts: Management-Investor Partnerships
Sagent Advisors assists management teams in all aspects of management buyouts
─ from identifying targets to locating debt and equity funding sources
to structuring and negotiating transactions with sellers.
A core strength of the firm is our ability to align exceptional leaders and
senior management teams with private equity firms to develop and finance investment
concepts together. In situations where a manager is seeking an equity partner
for
$10 million or $500 million, we can quickly and adeptly make introductions
and help negotiate a partnership agreement with private investors.
Throughout the buyout process, we assist senior management teams by:
- Identifying the appropriate private equity firms for the opportunity
based on:
-
Investment size
-
Type of investment (early stage, late stage, LBO or growth capital)
-
Sector focus
-
Profile of the firm and likely “personality fit” with the management team
-
Assisting in identifying possible acquisition candidates
-
Analyzing, structuring and negotiating acquisitions
-
Negotiating ownership structure and equity incentives
Finding
the right partner is key. As we maintain an active dialogue with more than
200 private equity firms, we are ideally suited to find the right match for our clients. If you would like to discuss how Sagent can assist you, please contact Nils Nilsen.
