Buyer

Acquisition of a company : a key step for your development.

You are a mid-cap company or a structured group of SMEs and you wish to develop through external growth. This approach requires the support of a consultant who will analyze the economic and financial data. MBA CAPITAL will prepare a valuation diagnosis, propose a financial package and, if necessary, negotiate the financing of the operation with equity investors and banking partners.

Your growth strategy

The external growth strategy allows a company to accelerate its development : integrating a team, a know-how, an industrial heritage, market shares, new customers, a geographical location, complementary industrial and technological skills, are all motivations for the company manager who wishes to create synergies or diversify his activities.

MBA Capital advises you to strengthen your growth, to develop in France and internationally : approaching shareholders and raise the funds to finance your project with the support of our advisors is a determining asset for your company. MBA CAPITAL has built up a track record of more than 600 transactions in France. This database is a reference for your future acquisition: target profile, business sector, specific valuation methods, are essential parameters to secure your acquisition.

Negociation

Imust say that we found in Vincent JUGUET of MBA Capital - Paris, the right conductor. He knew how to surround himself with a law firm for the regulatory and legal procedures, to negotiate the bank debt with the financial institutions and to find the Private Equity Company that would fit our image. I would like to thank them all.
