Merger & Acquisition (M & A) How Much?

Methods for growing a business are identified through the Strategic Planning Process.

From a revenue growth standpoint, the ways to grow a business are:

New or Expanded Markets, New or Enhanced Products, Merger & Acquisition (M & A), Strategic Alliances, Joint Ventures, Licensing, International

Growth in income/profitability may also come from:

Cost Containment, Cutbacks, Productivity, Prices

The process of Merger & Acquisitions (M & A) can be one of the fastest and perhaps the most visible means to grow a business.  Great care must be taken to ensure that the respective cultures are compatible and that the merger is well received by the marketplace.  The use of a professional Merger & Acquisition (M & A) firm, such as Irons Group Ltd., is a requisite for a successful transaction.

In providing value added services, cost is usually a non-factor.  However, to provide such services, an investment is usually necessary.   Normally, a Merger & Acquisition (M & A) transaction is structured with an up front investment called a consulting fee which allows Irons Group to conduct:  an operations analysis,  a confidential search for best prospects, and confidential negotiations.  Approved out-of-pocket expenses are billed and paid each month.  The consulting fee is deducted from the success fee.

The success fee is based upon the usual Lehman Formula:

5% consideration up to $1 million plus

4% consideration between $1 million and $2 million plus

3% consideration between $2 million and $3 million plus

2% consideration between $3 million and $4 million plus

1% consideration in excess of $4 million
