Since 1979
We
work closely, even on a personal level, with the
owners of both publicly-held and privately-held companies.
Each project
manger has
over 20 years experience in
senior level positions {including CEO} in Fortune 500
companies as well as mid-size companies and companies
started from ground zero.
We
know what it takes to meet the day-to-day challenges of
running a company, building a team of employees, producing
revenues, paying bills, protecting what has been built, and
insuring the future rewards of past efforts.
We
have closed deals ranging in size up to $102 million and as
small as $5 million.
We
have never failed to successfully complete an
assignment for any client in the sale its company. For
over 30 years, we have been 100% successful in the sale of our
clients’ companies.
Additionally,
we have always sold our client's companies for more
than a 3rd party's independent valuation.
We
attribute that success rate to extensive experience in
conducting a wide variety of negotiations and a personality
style that is diplomatic while also operating on the
objective of getting things done “On Time-On Spec-On
Budget”.
The
project manager works 100% on one deal at a time.
We
pick and chose the projects we work on. We do not represent
marginal companies and we do not provide minimal services.
We have no desire or patience in wasting anyone's time by
taking on assignments whose success is not clear to us at
the outset.
We
guarantee that we will always maintain you and your
company’s complete confidentiality. We will also
always maintain your interests over all others.
We
will be completely honest, candid and readily available
every step of the way and we expect the same of our client.
Below is an outline of how
we progress from an introduction to closing a deal
|
preliminary
introductions and non-obligatory meetings
for mutual analysis, understanding and ”getting
acquainted” |
|
You and Capital
Markets Group, Inc. {CMG} will have a minimum of
three {3} introductory/exploratory meetings to get
an overall understanding of your Personal/Corporate
Objectives and mutual understanding of each other’s
background etc.
|
|
Each party makes a
determination of any on-going interest {either by
you or CMG}
|
|
If there is a mutual
feeling of continuing discussions, CMG will send you
a Non-Disclosure Agreement {NDA} which binds CMG to
complete Confidentiality in all previous as well as
future discussions
|
|
After receiving the
NDA, you send {via email} your company’s financial
statements to CMG. We need the past 3 Years-Ending
plus past 12-Months Monthly Income Statements and
Balance Sheets.
|
|
CMG works on a “Financial
Analysis & Evaluation” of your company’s
financial statements. Analysis includes;
Preliminary Valuation, Key Financial Ratios,
Historical Performance, Seasonality, Cyclicality,
Preliminary Forecast.
|
|
CMG presents, to you
in person, the results of the above analysis
|
|
Based on the above
analysis, Capital Markets Group decides
whether-or-not to move forward with you
|
|
Based on the above
analysis and presentation, you decide whether-or-not
to move forward with CMG
|
|
If either party
decides to not move forward, the process
terminates and all materials you submitted to CMG
are returned to you or destroyed by CMG and you have
no financial, or other obligation, to CMG and the
results of our analysis are yours to keep.
|
|
If both parties are
comfortable with each other and decide to continue
working together, CMG submits a “Proposal of Work
and Fees”. That Proposal {including our work and
fees} is individually tailored to your specific
project.
|
|
Both parties resolve
any questions concerning the “Proposal of Work and
Fees” and CMG provides references.
|
|
Both parties sign the
finalized “Proposal of Work and Fees” and CMG begins
its work as follows
|
|
outline of
agreement/proposal of work and fees |
|
phase 1: financial
advisory services: |
|
CMG and you develop
and assemble basic information related to your
company including: Organization, Products/Services,
Market, Marketing & Sales, Pricing, Operations,
Strategic Plan, Management, Financial Forecasts,
etc.
|
|
CMG prepares a
complete Background Information Document {in its
proprietary format} which clearly explains the
company in detail yet in a format which invites and
helps potential buyers/investors to read it and make
preliminary decisions in less than 15 minutes
|
|
CMG develops
Alternative and Equivalent deal structures that meet
your objectives and which also clearly outline
potential deal structures for specific buyers and
their specific requirements. {we do not send out a
single-boiler-plate “Offering Memorandum”}
|
|
You and CMG review
the “Offering Document “ {Company Information,
Financial History & Forecasts, Alternative Deal
Structures, Valuation Analysis, etc} and concur on
the Final Draft.
|
|
CMG prepares the
“Final Offering Document” and presents it to you in
the same manner we present it to targeted
buyers/investors.
|
|
At this time, CMG and
you make the decision to proceed or not proceed to
the next phase. If either party decides to not
proceed further, there is no further obligation of
either party. However, you get to keep the entire
CMG work product including the “Final Offering
Document”.
|
|
If both parties
decide to proceed to the next phase, CMG begins its
“Private Investment Banking” services.
|
|
phase 2:
private investment banking services |
|
CMG identifies, to
you, specific and qualified targeted buyers which
CMG obtains from its day-to-day activity in the
marketplace as well as from its proprietary databank
built up with the names and personal information of
over 415 world-wide buyers / investors / lenders /
funds / corporations / etc. we have personally dealt
with for over 30 years.
|
|
CMG provides you with
an outline of who we are going to contact and when
we will contact them to discuss your deal and gives
a personal presentation of the “Offering Document”
{we do not do mass mailings “To Whom It May
Concern” nor do we send out boiler-plate
“Offering Memoranda”}.
|
|
CMG obtains
Confidentiality Agreement with potential buyer(s)
|
|
CMG personally
contacts and personally presents the “Offering
Document” to those buyer(s)
|
|
CMG conducts
preliminary negotiations with interested buyer(s)
|
|
CMG determines those
Buyers that have a continuing interest in the deal
and who are capable of meeting your Price and Terms.
|
|
CMG continues
discussions with all qualified buyers
|
|
CMG obtains a
“Letter-of-Intent” from qualified buyers that is
structured on the “Offering Document” price, terms
and expectations of our client in what it takes to
close the deal. In this manner we are virtually
assuring a satisfactory deal will close as opposed
to simply having someone come in, “kick-the-tires”
and waste your time, money and expectations.
|
|
CMG assists you in
the course of the Buyer’s Due Diligence Period
including on-going discussions and negotiations.
|
|
CMG prepares
Points of Agreement document for incorporation
into the Definitive Purchase Agreement/Investment
Agreement.
|
|
CMG works with your
tax advisor and attorney in drawing up or reviewing
the Definitive Purchase Agreement to insure that
what was negotiated and agreed to is incorporated
into the final documents
. |
|
CMG reviews the final
closing documents
|
|
close the deal |
|
Because this is
oftentimes a life-changing event for our clients,
CMG remains available, at no charge, for 6 months
after the deal closes, for whatever advice or
counsel you may desire {personal or professional}
