Management Buy-Outs & Management Buy-Ins
We specialise in helping ambitious managers and management teams to acquire the business they currently run on behalf of their shareholders (Management Buy-Out) or buy into a business for sale (Management Buy-In). Hundreds of buy-outs/buy-ins occur each year and it remains one of the few routes that provide managers with the prospect of taking control of their own business and creating significant wealth.

A management buy-out is very often a “once in a lifetime" opportunity. The process is technically complex and time-consuming. It is critical that management receive specialist advice in order to seize and maximise the opportunity.

We help management teams assess and unlock the opportunity, prepare the business plan, negotiate the price with the vendor, structure and raise the necessary funding and execute the transaction through to completion. All opportunities are unique and undoubtedly have issues to overcome. We have the experience to provide creative and practical solutions to these issues to make your deal happen.

Exit Reviews & Planning
We recognise that for vendors of privately owned businesses, the realisation of value from the sale of their business is of critical importance. By utilising our extensive experience of selling businesses, we work with private vendors to help them prepare their business for sale, review their exit options and plan the sales process.

Company Sales
The sale of a privately owned company usually represents the single most important and valuable transaction in the life of it's owner. We understand that equity value “locked” into your company usually represents your pension asset for a life time of hard work. We appreciate the importance of the sale of your business, and we work with you to help groom the business for sale, market the business and execute that transaction.

In addtion to advising individual shareholders, we specialise in the sale of privately owned companies for financial institutions and corporate groups. We work with the shareholders to obtain the best combination of price, form and timing of consideration within an agreed timetable.

Through our experience, we are able to help clients develop their business plan, identify the most appropriate funders and to negotiate a cost effective funding package.

Corporate Acquisitions
Whilst acquiring a business will enable companies to make a step change in their business, this strategy does involve a degree of risk. We work with corporate clients to mitigate these risks by identifying the most relevant targets to maximise strategic fit, helping assess value and by ensuring projects are actively managed through to completion.

Springboard has extensive experience in working with corporates and specialises in identifying, approaching and unlocking possible transactions for corporate clients.
