Closing a $14M manufacturing acquisition
Advised a family-owned manufacturer on its acquisition by a regional competitor.
$14Mtransaction value
The challenge
The buyer's first draft shifted almost all post-closing risk to our clients, two siblings retiring from the business their father founded.
Our approach
- 01Organised due diligence to surface issues before the buyer did
- 02Negotiated a tighter indemnity cap and shorter survival period
- 03Structured an earn-out tied to metrics our clients could verify
The outcome
The deal closed in 11 weeks. Our clients retired with 88% of the price paid at closing and limited exposure afterward.
