I want to de risk myself - how can I use the value of my business to take some cash out?

How much cash are you looking to realise? How much debt can you raise? How much equity do you need to sell if you use private equity?

Which private equity firms currently do these types of deals? What changes to the business should you expect if you do this type of deal? Is your business ready to go through a due diligence process? How will the private equity firm exit the business in the future?

Would you like to extend some of the ownership to the next level of management?

We have highlighted three deals opposite where Catalyst worked with an owner to handle a solution to their needs.
