Merchant Bank Seeking Acquisitions of Businesses and Divisions

This listing is from a private merchant bank actively seeking to acquire companies, subsidiaries, or divisions. They specialize in Leveraged Buyout (LBO) acquisitions for their own account and clients, drawing inspiration from historical business models. The bank offers a streamlined acquisition process, capable of providing purchase offers within 10 days under strict confidentiality and without requiring on-site inspections or extensive due diligence, thereby minimizing disruption to ongoing operations. Their acquisition criteria focus on profitable businesses with assets, specifically targeting sectors such as Manufacturing, Retail, Wholesale Distribution, Printing, Trucking, and Lumber Yards/Dealers. Ideal candidates typically have revenues between $5 million and $50 million, with a preference for businesses exhibiting large revenues and smaller profit margins, indicating a strong potential for leverage. They also seek companies with established management teams that can continue running the business post-acquisition.
