MBO/MBI

SpringFinance is your partner when it comes to a Management Buy Out or a Management Buy In.

We have the know-how and experience to advice managers or management teams on MBO’s or MBI’s. In both situations management partially or fully takes control over the company. In the case of a MBO management is already active in the company. With an MBI new management buys the company. These kind of transactions are generally realised in close cooperation with a private equity firm and a bank. In most cases management needs additional financing to buy the company. A transaction like this is more or less comparable with an acquisition or take-over of a company. We have been successful in executing this kind of transactions as is confirmed by our track-record.

The why of a MBO or MBI?

• A better alternative for shareholders than a direct sale to a strategic buyer
• The company remains independent, culture and name are preserved
• Offers management the opportunity to become entrepreneurs
• Turn-around is necessary or a new strategy has to be executed

We have built a track record of advising selling shareholders but also extensive experience in advising buy-in or buy-out candidates. Furthermore SpringFinance has an extensive network and very good relations with Private Equity both in the Netherlands and abroad. This know-how and experience combined with our direct and hands-on approach makes us successful dealmakers in this field.
