Frequently Asked Questions
What can a buyer expect from the process?
It starts with an introduction. First, we will interview prospective investors about their strategic goals, assess financial capacities, and establish criteria for your target.
Then, we do the work of finding the right business based on our comprehensive assessment of relevant market conditions, business value, and industry risks.
FE International offers a full M&A solution, so all your needs are taken care of – we deal with any and all inquiries, due diligence and execution on your behalf so that you can focus on the future.
What do I need for a consultation?
We encourage investors to consider a few key objectives in their acquisition. Strategic reasons for growth, like diversification and market expansion, help us understand the needs of your organization and identify targets that show the most potential synergy.
It’s important to also consider the parameters of your acquisition, like budget, acceptable ROI, and ideal payback period. Of course, we can help sort it all out.
Scheduling a call with a member of the M&A team might provide the additional context of current market conditions, trends we’re seeing, and insights from our deal pipeline.
How does FE International choose the businesses in the active listings?
Our experience in middle-market technology uniquely positions us to understand the power of young business or new products in the established markets.
We always consider the core value of a business–like revenue streams, customer retention, and cost of operations–against a real picture of competition and buyer interest in the market.
The businesses we choose to represent reflect the most promising innovations and indicators of sustainable returns among their respective industries.
