Management Buy Outs (MBOs)

A MBO offers skilled and competent managers the opportunity to acquire a part or all of their employer. The heightened personal commitment of management, close knowledge of the business and the general continuity in trading relationships can combine to make MBOs a superior investment strategy.

Our Tactics

At State Equity, we partner with ambitious and proficient managers to invest in companies with good growth potential. We formulate the information upon which funders and investors can make a decision on how to participate and establish a price range for the business and a general structure for the transaction.

We then negotiate with the current owners on behalf of our Client regarding price, terms, conditions, warranties and indemnities so as to minimise the potential for workplace interruptions or tension. We also structure the required equity and debt finance to enable the investment to proceed in a financially fair and viable manner.

Client Benefits

Our approach to MBOs enables our Clients (management) to partner with an efficient capital provider within the optimum investment structure. Our experience in starting and growing major businesses also provides our Clients with strategic benefits that can enhance the growth of the company under new ownership.
