Seller Considerations
Our goal is to customize the transaction process to meet your unique objectives
Non-core corporate divestitures require a buyer with unique skills.
Overlapping customers, vendors, joint marketing agreements and reputation are all considerations in a divestiture. CoBe Capital is committed to meeting and exceeding the seller’s expectations. We understand that our success depends on well-executed business operations post-close. We carefully listen to these objectives, and tailor each transaction to meet all the objectives of the corporate seller.
Catalysts for a transaction:
- Legacy business that no longer fits current strategy
- Non-core operation within a large strategic acquisition
- Non-core geography creating a distraction
- Sub-scale business with excess overhead
- Captive supplier that had been acquired defensively
- Distribution-arm creating conflict with customers
- Prohibitively high costs to close or exit an operation
Seller goals for a non-core divestiture:
- Accelerated transaction timeline
- Minimal disruption to operations and employees
- Sensitivity to local customs and practices
- Desire for an ongoing business relationship
- Confidentiality
- Certainty of closing
- Preserving or transferring brand equity
