Buy - Expand through Acquisitions

When you’re ready to buy, we lead the charge, so you can stay focused on your existing business. We know what’s happening in the M&A market, and will offer insight into potential targets you may not find if you “go it alone.”

Representing you as a buyer, The Charter Group can search locally, regionally or nationally for companies fitting your specific requirements. We then confidentially contact the owners of those companies to determine their interest in selling. Once interested sellers are identified, we analyze the target’s financials, prepare valuations, arrange for visits, and assist in developing and negotiating an appropriate deal structure.

Once we’ve found the ideal match, we’ll structure a deal that optimizes your position and see the process through to a successful closing.

Case Study: Improving Profitability

A manufacturing client was achieving marginal profitability due to under-utilized equipment capacity. They asked us to identify acquisition candidates that could be consolidated to the company facility to increase production. Within four months, Charter identified a pool of 14 receptive sellers, and our client acquired a division of a large multi-national company. New workers and customers resulted in increased plant utilization and a significant increase in profitability.
