CASE STUDIES OF SUCCESSFUL EXITS OF PRIVATELY OWNED COMPANIES

Two case studies of how founders successfully sold their companies at very high valuations in a difficult market: one in media and the other in consumer products industry. Join us for an in-depth discussion of proactive steps these sellers took to increase the value of their company, including mitigating inherent risks. 

Discover how thinking out of the box for potential buyers significantly increased the selling price, and how even the appearance of an auction process provided significant leverage in negotiating a materially higher valuation.

Learning Objectives:

  • Proactive steps to take in preserving and increasing the value of a company.
  • How getting the right advisory team in a timely manner is critical for a successful exit.
  • What is the real M&A timeline for an auction, and breaking down the steps.
  • How selling a company to a buyer out of its space can result in a higher price.
