Selling to Corvus means partnering with a group that values your hard-earned legacy as much as you do. We ensure that your company not only survives but thrives under our stewardship.
As a founder ready to move on and explore new ventures, you want reassurance that your business remains true to its roots.
Your business is an underutilized company poised for growth but lacks the means to push forward.
Certain products or divisions may be seen as carve-outs that no longer align with your overall strategy.
You're facing financial issues and you need a solid exit plan.
We focus on helping successful companies grow by partnering with proven vendors and dedicated management teams. We offer the resources and capital needed to support your success and enhance profitability.
This is an opportunity for us to get to know one another, learn more about your journey, and explore how we can add value.
We’ll work with you to understand your key business metrics and fundamentals. Within a week, we’ll be able to share a “Letter of Intent” (LOI), outlining valuation and deal structure tailored to your goals.
After signing the LOI, we’ll enter into a deeper review of the business, including technology, accounting and legal. While this process goes on, we’ll work with you to finalize the purchase contract for the business.
Once the purchase contract is signed, we’ll wire over funds and work closely with you to ensure a smooth ownership transition, mitigating disruption to your team and customers.
Our process stems from decades of experience and hundreds of strategic acquisitions.
