Over the past few years, you have built a remarkable company, but for compelling reasons, you are considering selling the business. OSCF is eager to assist in determining the best strategy for selling your company. We aim to alleviate as much of the burden as possible during the sales process, allowing you to maintain focus on your day-to-day operations.

Selling a business is a unique event, often a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. A well-thought-out sales process requires careful preparation, good timing, patience, and the right knowledge. At OSCF, we provide entrepreneurs with guidance throughout the entire process of selling their business and negotiate for the optimal result. Our approach involves providing structure, clarity, and transparency, with the goal of achieving the optimal outcome together, even if it does not immediately lead to a sale. With our years of experience and expertise in various industries, we have an extensive and relevant network of investors and strategic buyers. We ensure that the sales process runs smoothly, allowing you to focus on the day-to-day operations.

Your company has experienced significant growth in recent years, but in preparation for the next phase of expansion, you are actively seeking a strategic partner. Additionally, while you have plans to continue operating for some time, there is an intention to gradually wind down or cease operations in a few years.

In a pre-exit scenario, your business is strategically divested in phases. Initially, you sell a portion of your company while retaining a minority or majority stake. Following the initial sale, you typically remain actively engaged in your business for a period of 3 to 5 years. After this period, your remaining stake of the company will be sold. A pre-exit offers the opportunity to secure a portion of your wealth while maintaining close involvement in the development and growth of your business. It also enables you to retain control on crucial aspects.

We assist entrepreneurs in coordinating and preparing various acquisition processes, including a buy-and-build strategy. Our role encompasses not only helping entrepreneurs making well-informed choices but also determining the optimal approach strategy. Taking targeted steps now is pivotal to ensure future success. Through strategic acquisitions, you can continue to grow and maintain a competitive edge. Leveraging our extensive network and broad sector knowledge, we provide you with a wide range of opportunities to expand into new markets.

Strategic advice in anticipation of a (pre) exit involves considering key elements with a partial sale on the horizon. Factors such as international growth, autonomy of the management team, and more come into play. OSCF can equip you with a series of workshops, addressing critical aspects when navigating a sales process. In these workshops, OSCF offers insights into:

1. Potential buyers.
2. The valuation of the company.
3. Understanding financial, tax and legal aspects for an optimal exit.
4. Maximum preparation to initiate a sales process.
