The Company

Our client company was established in 2014 with nationwide offices. They have grown their FuM to c£1.7bn through acquisitions. They have developed a tried and tested acquisition model having undertaken 6 large acquisitions previously.

Option – Sell and Stay

This is ideal if:

  • You want to create a capital event with a highly competitive price for your business but continue to grow the business
  • You would like open architecture to allow your client to migrate on existing mandates where these best meet the clients’ needs

Value

Multiple of EBITDA

They will acquire 75% of the business on day 1 with 40% payable upfront on completion, with the remaining 35% paid over 3 years in equal instalments. Remaining 25% gets paid in year 4 where they will then revalue the business via multiple of recurring income at 3-3.5x. However, during this time they will have been supported by the acquirer with further acquisitions therefore increasing the overall value. As such, this 25% revaluation can often be worth close to the original 75%.
