Are You Mentally and Financially Ready to Exit Your Business?

Whether it arrives after a few years of intense work or decades of dedication, there comes a time when every business owner must consider an exit strategy. While much goes into crafting a specific plan, the feasibility of an exit is largely based on two foundational aspects: mental and financial readiness.

Distinguishing Business Value and Personal Value with the End in Mind

When owners, CEOs, and business executives discuss valuation, they rarely look beyond financial assets, figures, and statements. However, when looking to sell a business, there is much more involved in the valuation process. As a business owner, you must understand the concepts of business value and personal value – and how they relate to your exit strategy.

Key Employees Can Ruin The Sale Of A Business

Many companies don't consider the potential impact their key employees may have when a business is sold. That oversight can have disastrous consequences. Business sales have many moving parts, and employees are crucial to a business operation and its success. This key piece, however, is often overlooked.

Earn-Outs Gone Bad

Earn-outs are a common component used in the purchase of a business. They allow the buyer to shift some of the risk of purchase by overpaying the seller. The buyer withholds a portion of the purchase price pending the realization of the seller’s projections. As a consequence to the 2008 recession, the popularity of earn-outs began increasing in the late 2000's, and as of 2013, they made up 40% of deal proceeds. What happens when an earn-out goes bad? How can you navigate the process?

A Brief Refresher of Your Business Liability Needs

There are few responsibilities more challenging to navigate than owning a business. At some point, even companies supported by top-rated customer service teams will face difficult customers. Certain customer horror stories are passed around like gossip: these people fling accusations or are impossible to please. Suing is a common practice in today’s professional environment, which is why professional liability insurance is vital to your business.

Buying and Selling Businesses: What You Need to Know About Allocating Purchase Price

Purchase price allocation is a critical part of the process when one business purchases another. Purchase price allocation, or PPA, is necessary when working through the execution of a transaction. Make sure you do your financial due diligence to work out assets and liabilities early so buyers can estimate what they are purchasing. They will be in earnest, as the assets (especially intangible assets) affect revenue estimations. What makes PPAs so multifaceted is that the process involves the financial understanding of both the tangible and intangible assets of a company. In this email I’d like to talk about what I’ve learned while helping clients with their business transactions.
