Buy-Out & Buy-In

APC Partners can assist management and/or individual shareholders of a family business in the process of acquiring control of a target company through leverage with bank debt and the possible co-investment by a financial partner, typically a private equity fund.

The types and names are different depending on the players:

MANAGEMENT BUY-OUT (MBO) if the acquisition is completed by one or more managers who already run the company;
FAMILY BUY-OUT (FBO) if the acquisition is completed by one or more family members;
MANAGEMENT BUY-IN (MBI) if the acquisition is completed by one or more managers from outside the company.

APC Partners manages the buy-out or buy-in process, evaluates the financial sustainability of the transaction, any equity raising and, through qualified partners, also the debt raising.
