At Pacific Business Sales we thoroughly understand the process of selling a manufacturing company, how to properly value a manufacturing company, WIP (Work In Process), A/R (accounts receivable). We know how to obtain SBA financing for the sale-purchase of manufacturing companies, we thoroughly understand manufacturing company operations & financial statements, and we have a large and diverse pool of buyers interested in manufacturing companies like yours.
Pacific Business Sales specializes in the sale of manufacturing and industrial companies, technology, e-commerce, and construction companies ranging from $1 million in sales to $50 million in sales and wants you to obtain the maximum value for your business.
All of our Purchase Agreements are prepared on the CABB (California Association of Business Brokers) Asset Purchase Agreement of Stock Purchase Agreement. Our firm has experience in both Asset Sales and Stock Sales (note that an Asset Sale is a transaction type, not to be confused with an asset liquidation – see our page Stock vs Asset Sale). Our experience is that Stock Sale can be critical for you since in some cases a Stock Sale may be necessary if the company has government contacts tied to the corporation. In a stock sale, the buyer acquires the corporation, and the corporate EIN and most important contracts tied to the corporate entity remain intact.
We prepare the offer with the buyer and send it for signature via DocuSign. When the offer has been signed by the buyer we review it with you, explain the details, and prepare a Counter Offer if necessary.
Due Diligence is a very critical step in the transaction process of selling a manufacturing business. This is where the rubber meets the road so to speak. During Due Diligence, the buyer and often their CPA will review the company’s tax returns, P&Ls, bank statements, and other records to confirm the revenue and earnings are what is claimed. The buyer will also be reviewing the overall company to ensure it is a well run and stable business. We facilitate Due Diligence with both Buyer and Seller assisting in the process and keeping it on track. After Due Diligence is complete and the contingency is removed escrow is opened.
We understand manufacturing businesses, their operations, how their financial statements work, and we know how to value manufacturing businesses with their inventory, Work in Process, and A/R. Most importantly we know how to sell manufacturing companies and we get them sold!
It is critical that your Manufacturing Business Broker understands your business, can speak intelligently about it, knows how to prepare offers for a manufacturing business, and how to obtain SBA financing. Bill Grunau, Broker & President of Pacific Business Sales has over 20 years of experience in the high tech & aerospace industries ranging from engineer to senior executive roles of VP and CEO.
