Restaurant Group Sells at 1.6x Offer
Practice Area
Mergers & Acquisitions (Small Business)
Challenge
A family-owned restaurant group was approached by a national chain for a potential acquisition. The owners were unfamiliar with the M&A process and concerned about valuation, legacy, and the future of long-time employees.
Approach
We performed a business valuation, negotiated terms that protected the owners' legacy, and included clauses ensuring job security for key staff. We also structured the deal to minimize tax liability on the sale proceeds.
Result
The acquisition closed at 1.6x the original offer, and the owners retained a minority equity stake in the acquiring company. Long-term employees were retained, and the brand identity was preserved.
