I hope that 2017 has started out well for you and your company.   I know our deal teams are busier than ever as we anticipate another strong year of M&A activity.  In fact, according to some sources, as we discuss in our lead article this month, “barring a major catastrophe, 2017 will be a strong one for M&A.”

However, for you to take advantage of a seller’s market you need to begin planning today and the best way to start your exit planning is to attend a Generational Group executive M&A conference.

The Generational Group is always here to assist with your specific exit plans.   Over the past several years no M&A advisory firm has closed more lower middle market companies (companies with valuations up to $150 million) than we have.   This is based on Thomson research which you can look at by following this link:

In addition to our rankings, we have also been recognized by The M&A Advisor, a leading M&A association, as the Investment Banking Firm of the Year in 2016, the Valuation Firm of the Year in 2014 and 2015 and the M&A Consulting firm of the Year in 2011 and 2013.  

Our dealmakers are skilled and experienced in finding and negotiating with optimal buyers and we are ready to meet with you and discuss your specific opportunities.  

Since early 2017 is expected to have strong buyer demand in the lower middle market, we are encouraging you to reach out to us if you are interested in attending another exit planning conference or if you prefer a face-to-face meeting to discuss your options.    We believe that it is vital for business owners to develop succession plans that will protect and defend the significant equity they have built into their businesses.

So please call us at 972-232-1121 or send an email to:  info@generational.com if you would like information about a conference in your area or if you are considering a meeting with us.  And feel free to subscribe to our corporate blog using this link:

Subscribing will allow you to stay up-to-date on the latest trends in M&A planning and provide timely research to give direction as you consider your exit timing and strategies.

Thank you for your time and wishing you all the best for the rest of 2017.
