Selling to Private Equity
Private Equity focuses on scaling the acquisition at speed and then selling it on. It works well for shareholders and owners wanting to extract maximum capital, providing the terms of the deal are properly understood, and projections upheld.
Is Private Equity Right for Your Business?
Financial Threshold
PE buyers typically look for £2m+ EBITDA and substantial growth potential to justify their investment model.
Acceleration Model
Their model is to scale quickly and exit within 3–5 years, requiring businesses ready for rapid growth.
Rigorous Process
PE funds represent other funds; therefore, due diligence is very thorough and requires comprehensive preparation.
