Management buy outs (MBOs) and Management buy ins (MBIs) can be very rewarding, but the process is often time-consuming, technically complex and risky. Rickitt Mitchell has extensive experience in this area, structuring complex leveraged transactions and dealing with the providers of private equity and bank funding. We spend a great deal of time maintaining close relationships with these providers to ensure that we are aware of their current focus (eg. sector preference and transaction size) and to know the personalities involved. This understanding is important when trying to match the funding requirements of a business or transaction to the many sources available.
Over the last 30 years from our Manchester base, we have successfully helped many management buy out and buy in teams with the acquisition of their businesses with the minimum of stress. We understand the commercial reality of the situation, and we are typically paid on completion. If you require management buy out advice, please get in touch with us as soon as possible.
What we do - Help to focus and refine the business plan and funding proposal
- Evaluate the likely funding requirements and the most appropriate sources of funding
- Set up introductions to selected private equity providers, banks and other finance providers
- Approach and negotiate with the owners of the business and the chosen debt and equity finance providers to structure the best deal possible
- Co-ordinate the other professional advisers involved and, if necessary, help to select other team members
- Manage the transaction effectively and drive it to a successful completion within a suitable timescale
