Editor's Notes

  1. READ . . The 8 Stages of an Optial Outcome. The timetable to complete these steps will vary by company depending upon the condition of your financials, your competitive analysis, your business model analysis, financial projections, etc.
  2. Will vary depending on the situation, may or may not present valuation. Buyer will generally deliver an opening offer to me – call: we’re really impressed with ABC Co. like to put together an offer, thinking in the range of ___. Great, they like you as well… put it in writing. We don’t like paraphrasing the terms, we want them to do that. Writing shows they’ve put some thought into it. 2-3 days to 2-3 weeks. EventTracker scenario – buyer wants an indication from the seller
  3. We’ve covered how you can generate wealth for generations by following an Optimal Outcome process. Now let’s talk about how you can keep from becoming a Deal Disaster!
  4. February 12, 2016 – Dec 2, 2016 US Public Markets
  5. Key Message: Tech M&A for 2016 YTD remains strong, just like 2015, a very strong year We can see from the Corum Index how strong 2015 was for tech M&A. Here we see a snapshot the activity from Feb 2015 compared to the same for Feb 2016. In the broader market, the number of deals is down but only slightly for the month. This month to month fluctuation is normal while mega deals are up. The pipeline indices are down while financial buyers and investors catch their breath. Remember though the amount of dry powder (unspent cash) that remains to be invested. The Attributes remain steady, little notable change.
  6. The Power Controls (PC) and Vehicle Technologies (VT) lines of business of Enovation Controls, which provides digital control systems for gaseous fuel engines and engine-driven equipment primarily for the transportation and energy sectors.

  9. We’ve reached the end. The celebration part. Selling software, IT and related technology companies is very satisfying. You become close to your clients after such an intense process. Unfortunately, the closings are often very anti-climactic. Ending with a whimper with some government filing, a wire transfer, the parties scattered across the globe. That why once a year we take our clients who successfully sold to Langara in the gulf of Alaska – we’ve been doing this for 23 years. You can more about these trips, and comments from those company owners like you who have attended. So, I’ll close by simply inviting you to go fishing with us. Thank you for your time today.
