Sell-Side Advisory

MMCA is a client focused firm – we work with you to find the right solution for your unique situation and goals. This sometimes means going to market immediately, but often translates into helping you prepare your business for sale. When the time comes to sell your business, our team uses a structured sale process; this strategy allows us to run an effective auction while you focus on operating your business.

The structured sale process uses a defined timeline and step-by step methodology to ensure the best results. The first part of the process includes creating a confidential information memorandum and developing a buyer list of hundreds of strategic and financial prospects. Once the buyer list and CIM is approved, we confidentially market the deal to qualified institutions with the goal of receiving several offers. We analyze the offers and provide an analysis so you can choose the offer that’s best for you. Once an offer is signed, we quarterback the due diligence process and close the transaction.

MMCA is one of the most experienced and client-oriented advisors in the lower-middle market. We are knowledgeable about structuring transactions to maximize value, minimize the impact of taxes, and reducing post-close challenges. Our strong relationships with thousands of companies, private equity firms, family office groups, and high net worth individuals across the United States and internationally allow us to successfully close more deals than our competitors.

Buy-Side Advisory

As an M&A Advisor, our team finds acquisition opportunities to grow your company. Our extensive personal network and huge database of companies allows us to discover targets that meet your specific criteria, whether you’re expanding geographically, adding a product or service line, or have another goal in mind. Our experience helps us avoid common pitfalls like overpaying, failing to perform proper due diligence, and not asking the right questions.

In the buy-side process, we analyze your firm and determine how large an acquisition you can make, then prepare a list of prospective target companies that meet your buying criteria. Once the prospect list is approved, our team reaches out to target companies on your behalf and gauges interest in an acquisition. We solicit financial information from the targets and value their business. Next, our team prepares a preliminary analysis and presents the acquisition opportunity to you. We assist Buyers in drafting a Letter of Intent (LOI) for purchasing the target, and once it’s signed, lead the due diligence process.

In addition to our effective buy-side process, MMCA is in a unique position to help clients secure financing for acquisitions. Our firm maintains strong relationships with commercial banks across the United States and many of our team members are former bankers. We can identify commercial banks, prepare financing proposals, assist with banking presentations, and review and analyze financing term sheets as part of the buy-side process.
