Sales & Divestitures

Businesses are sold to a diverse buyer universe and for a myriad of reasons including: diversification of shareholders’ net worth; retirement; generational issues; portfolio liquidation or reallocation; globalization; or the ability to increase success as part of a larger organization. The sale of a business is a time consuming, intense process that requires focused attention.

Raptor Partners works with private, public and private equity clients to confidentially navigate the business sale process. Raptor Partners works to capture and sustain deal momentum, while allowing the ownership and management teams to focus on maintaining business operations throughout the transaction, which is integral to a transaction’s success.

Raptor Partners confidentially works with a select group of a client’s Key Managers, Board of Directors and Shareholders to analyze a sell-side candidate’s potential of being successfully sold, to develop a projected valuation for the business, and to identify potential strategic and financial buyers for the target. If Raptor Partners and its client collectively determine a sale of the business is in the best interest of all relevant stakeholders, Raptor Partners manages and assists in all aspects of a custom-tailored transaction process, including strategic positioning, financial modeling, marketing, due diligence, buyer identification and contact, management presentation development, and transaction negotiation.

Raptor Partners maintains an in-depth network of global strategic and financial buyer contacts with whom its professionals have worked with on past transactions. In addition, Raptor Partners maintains significant capital markets contacts to provide valuable insight into acquisition finance and capital availability.

Raptor Partners has been successfully built around the philosophy of providing its clients with senior-level, focused insight and attention throughout all facets of a transaction. Raptor Partners feels the senior advisors a client meets at the beginning of a transaction should be the same advisors that a client can depend on to process the transaction to a successful finish.
