Capital Markets (Mergers & Acquisitions)

Every year thousands of companies, small or large, public, or private integrate (merger or acquisition) with other companies for a variety of reasons. If a business is interested in this type of integration project, we can assist.

Whether considering a merger or acquisition of another company, Regional Business Brokers has an experienced staff coupled with 150 affiliated offices in 50 states with a network of over 1500 co-partners, to make the difference.

The integration (M&A) is the art and science of combining two companies together to create a single ownership. In economic terms, merger and/or acquisition are the same. There is, however, one major difference. In merger integration, one company's entity is absorbed by another one. The transaction creates one company. On the other hand, acquisition companies combine their resources but still have certain identifiable differences.

Buyers of companies may have different missions when they begin the integration process. Some buyers purchase companies only to hold them for resale with an added value. The term used to describe this type of buyer is "financial" buyer or "non-synergetic" buyer. On the other hand, "strategic" buyers acquire each company to increase its corporate family by integrating product lines, customer base, etc.

We believe each integration process whether it is a merger or acquisition is unique. Each process presents its own set of opportunities and its own set of issues.
