Management Buyouts

Crown Capital Advisors provides advisory services to the management of companies interested in formulating a buyout. There are many times when an owner (whether public or private) would be just as interested in selling a business to management as to an outsider.

Crown is cognizant of the pitfalls and of the dynamics that can result from these types of situations when dealing with owners/shareholders and can help to direct transactions away from untenable outcomes. By engaging Crown, the management group not only gains professional advice, but Crown provides a buffer that protects management’s delicate relationship the board of directors and the owners/shareholders. Crown can help the management group to anticipate all of the probable responses by the broad of directors and the owners/shareholders in order to prepare the appropriate course of action.

Crown engages in discussions with the management group to bring objectivity, focus and organization to the buyout process. Crown discusses the management group’s goals and objectives and alternative approaches to the transaction in order to gain a clear picture of the buyout strategy and formulate focused criteria. Crown’s services may include advising the management group not only on alternative courses of action, but on the presentation of the plan to the broad and the owners/shareholders, on negotiating the terms of the transaction and with regard to arranging financing for the transaction.
