Business Exits & IPO Advisory
for $1M+ Revenue Companies
Sell your business or plan your IPO — confidentially, professionally, and with no upfront fees for business sale engagements.
Schedule a Confidential ConsultationNo obligation. Strictly confidential. We typically work with companies valued at $1M-$100M+ for business sales, and IPO advisory clients with $2M+ in annual EBITDA.
Who We Work With
We partner with owners who are serious about value, timing, and long-term reputation.
- Owner-operated businesses with $1M–$10M+ in annual revenue
- Profitable companies considering a full or partial exit in the next 1–3 years
- Founders with $2M+ annual EBITDA exploring IPO or U.S. capital markets
- Cross-border entrepreneurs (E-commerce, F&B, manufacturing, professional services)
Our Focus
Our focus is on business owners who want a thoughtful, structured process – not a rushed fire sale – and who are willing to share three years of financials so we can do a professional valuation.
What We Do
Sell Your Business
(Business Brokerage)
We provide confidential, sell-side advisory for owners who want to exit the right way and maximize what they take home.
- Confidential business valuations based on 3 years of financials
- SDE recast to show true owner benefit
- Operational optimization advice before going to market
- Professional Offering Memorandum (CIM) & Blind Teaser
- Buyer screening, negotiation, and closing
- No upfront fees — we only get paid when you get paid
IPO & Capital Markets
(Advisory)
For larger, high-growth companies, a simple sale is not the only option. We help you explore and prepare for IPO events.
- IPO readiness assessment ($2M+ EBITDA companies)
- Listing strategy: U.S. exchanges, alternative markets, or dual-track
- Coordination with law firms, audit firms, and IR advisors
- Capital structure & equity story development
- Pre-IPO optimization of business model and reporting
Two Paths We Support
Path 1: Sell & Retire
For owners who want to sell the business outright, cash out, and move into retirement or a new chapter.
• Revenue: $1M–$10M+
• Strong, stable cash flow
• Ready to exit in 1–3 years
We focus on confidential sales, buyer screening, and a clean closing.
Path 2: Grow & IPO
For companies that are still in growth mode and may not want to sell 100% of the business.
• $2M+ Annual EBITDA
• Clear growth story
• Open to U.S. listing (e.g., NASDAQ)
We help you compare sale vs. capital raise vs. IPO and build a roadmap.
