M&A is short for “merger” and “acquisition”. A merger is done when two business entities, usually of roughly the same size, combine their businesses to form a new business entity and both previous owners have an ownership stake in the new entity. An acquisition is done when one business entity acquires (buys) another.
We provide M&A services for businesses with revenues under $10,000,000.
M&A involves the size of the deal. Opinions vary, but normally, the smallest M&A deal involves businesses with EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) of at least $1,000,000.
M&A involves the process whereby a business is sold. The M&A process to sell a business includes a business valuation by an accredited appraiser, a more complete presentation package for the potential buyer, and a targeted search for buyers.
M&A is not investment banking. Investment bankers provide banking services, such as raising capital or doing an initial public offering.
