Why now?

This is a good time to sell your business because many corporate executives will find themselves out of work due to all the “right-sizing”.  Being a “survivor” of the most recent cuts is no assurance for the future.  Those that have been on the fence or have been too comfortable in the past now are genuinely motivated to take destiny into their own hands. Interest rates are at near historical lows. That means there is more unencumbered or free cash flow to work with, which has a positive effect on a critical factor in business valuations (the debt capacity).  The greater the debt capacity the greater the corpus or greater the business value limit becomes.

Financing woes have not affected the commercial market like they have with the housing market.  Funds are readily available, particularly acquisition funding. Basic economics dictate: there are more buyers chasing fewer companies!  We still live in an environment of favorable long term Capital Gains.  How much longer do you think we will have 15% long term capital gains (federal) if a democratic candidate wins the next presidency?

Time to sell?

It never ceases to amaze me how some people use the gloom and doom media news stories as an excuse to either not make decisions, or make the wrong ones. We live with business cycles. After more than 15 years as a Business broker Christopher P. Mok expects that many people will think that it’s hard to sell a business during a presidential election campaign because of all the bad things the candidates say are or will be happening.

It is always a good exercise to assess your options.   Goodwill is connected to the earning capacity of a business.  If you have a respectable track record, then you can expect to get some future multiple of earnings should you decide to sell.  If you wait for the cycle to hit its valley, it may be years before your Company is worth what it is now!  If you have nothing else to do with your time, no problem. Most people would choose not to work for free given a choice. 

Christopher P. Mok has 25 combined years as a financial and transactional expert.  He worked with publicly held companies at Coopers & Lybrand (now Pricewaterhouse Coopers) and the investment banking firm AGS Financial Corp. before founding Business Search Group in 1993.  Valuations, building business value, exit planning consulting and middle market business sales are within the sweet zone of his practice. He has a wealth of experience that helps his clients increase their wealth when it comes to buying or selling businesses.  By hiring Business Search and Consulting business professionals, you can be sure that you are on the way towards maximizing your Company’s value.

Expanding your existing business

You can make your business successful if you work with consistency and have a well-planned strategy. Every kind of business concern is different from others and has its own unique problems associated with it. Business financing and commercial loans are extremely useful to solve financial problems related to your business as they can enable you to obtain a good amount of money to implement certain necessary changes such as expanding your existing business, satisfy certain unexpected situations or to buy machinery or raw materials for business. Commercial loans are available as unsecured and secured loans. For the latter, you need to place collateral for the loan amount, but you do not need any collateral for the former.
