Industry: Manufacturing
Revenue: $1 Million

Challenge
The owner of a manufacturing plant of control systems equipment for large printing presses was approached by interested parties to purchase the company. The company was a very profitable manufacturing business and was also generating revenue from writing and producing performance enhancing software.  The company’s total revenue was $1 million + but the owner wasn’t sure how to value the business for the purposes of a sale.

Solution
Brown Smith Wallace coached the owner through the process, helping him determine what additional information was needed in order to make a strong case. 

Our client benefited from our identification of key business drivers and recommendations for strategic improvements designed to substantially increase the value of the organization. Due to the expertise of our Mergers & Acquisition group, a sale was completed in one 24 hour visit.
