Acquisition Services

The Private Equity Exchange™ Acquisition Search 
If you are serious about making an acquisition in a timely fashion, this option is the most effective way to locate and acquire a middle market manufacturing, distribution, sales or business services company. 

Under this option, we work with you to develop useful acquisition criteria, conduct a proactive search, bring you deals to consider, and then help you consummate a transaction. Very few business intermediaries have expertise in acquisition search projects. Most intermediaries prefer working for sellers, and rarely work proactively on projects initiated by buyers. CrossPointe is one of the few middle market M&A firms in the country that not only has acquisition search expertise, but really enjoys the acquisition process. Maybe that's why we get great results! 

Private Acquisition System.
Our Private Acquisition System™ is a Unique Process designed to maximize the probability of the successful acquisition of a private company in the minimum amount of time and at the optimum terms. It is a proven, predictable system for developing actionable acquisition criteria; locating, qualifying and matching opportunities; and producing an Excellent Exchange™.

Transactional Assistance.
If you independently or through another intermediary locate a business that you would like to acquire, CrossPointe can help you evaluate the company and complete an acquisition. Deal structuring, contract review, transaction analysis, negotiations, business valuations, detailed financial analysis, proforma financial preparation, business planning, arranging debt, and occasionally, equity financing, are some examples of the transactional services we can provide. Our consulting services can be a very cost effective way to get a market-savvy perspective on your potential sale.

Valuation. 
Whether for a sanity check or as required to arrange financing, a valuation of your acquisition candidate may be appropriate. Since we are closely connected to the market and do business evaluations solely for management purposes, our fees are significantly lower than valuation firms oriented to valuations used for litigation support or IRS disputes.

Business Development.
Once you own your new business, CrossPointe can help you build a strong, saleable company of increasing value. Liquidity plus Value equals Equity, and it does not happen by accident. There is a systematic set of steps you can take to optimize the value of your company in preparation for ultimate re-sale.

"As a buyout professional, I have worked with many intermediaries over the years. Our group worked with CrossPointe during the successful buyout of a company whose seller Michael Sipe represented. My experience was that Mike brought just the right amount of experience, business acumen, and sensitivity to the table. He knows what is needed and when it is needed to get a deal done. When he speaks, all parties respect his input and problems are overcome. We won't hesitate to work with Mike again, and should we need someone to represent our group, Mike will get the nod."
