Every transaction we lead is absolutely unique. Each of our shareholder/clients has different goals for the transaction they're contemplating. They are in industries as varied as software to auto parts to medical services. Buyers may show up from down the street to across the globe depending on the competitive landscape and economies of scale the business presents.
Our clients have sold minority stakes, majority stake and 100% of their shares. Some have left the office on the day of completion, while others have continued on for many years in partnership with new investors. Each of these cases requires a creative approach to finding just the right universe of buyers to match the stated desires of the client and never have two buyers' lists ever been the same.
Our integrated approach ensures that we address your needs throughout the entire transaction process, working alongside your attorneys, investment bankers, and other advisors to identify and mitigate risks effectively.
Our unflinching goal is to achieve success for our clients. Sometimes that happens within a matter of months. Other times, such as during the upheavals created by Covid, or due to rapidly changing market conditions caused by rising interest rates, that could take a year or more. We are there side-by-side with our clients regardless of what the market, the business, or buyers throw our way.
We focus on larger and more complex private transactions. Since TAP's inception both our average and median transaction size for businesses we've helped sell, has been in the range of $35m to $40m with the smallest transaction being close to $10m and the largest being in the $100m range. With this size of clients we take on very few clients each year and expect to commit a significant amount of time towards their success.
