Question
We're looking to (fully) exit for genuine personal (family) reasons despite have a fast growing multi-national business that lends itself perfectly as an extension within the consumer travel sector. We've attracted media and partnerships worldwide and are growing at a fast pace without funding.
We're advised our business is ideal for a Top tier travel company and would like to find the right M&A broker to partner with to ensure plans / progress / metrics best align to enable this in 2016/17 as we continue to grow fast in the meantime.
Who's the ideal broker (that's likely to deal within the $20-$50m+ market) who can best manage this?
Any pointers (also / or including likely fee structure and how best to 'get out there for sale without compromising value') Very much appreciated. Thank-you!
Answer
Hello there
There is not going to be a binary answer to your question. The variables of what you want to achieve, your situation (both personal & corporate) and more specifically what the market is dictating will all have a bearing on things.
I have worked on large international M&A engagements previously and also have good contacts internationally in the Airline / Travel sector.
I have quite recently worked with a FinTech organisation preparing them to take on investment for growth or acquisition. Experience I believe which would be of benefit to you in the position you describe. I can assist on the deal brokering side of things.
I'm a firm believer in adding value and look forward to being able to do so when we speak.
