Providing Sellers Certainty of Sale with KPAC Solutions
KPAC Solutions is a private investment company focused upon acquiring and turning around distressed and underperforming manufacturing and industrial businesses. With its headquarters in Nashville and offices in Los Angeles, Chicago and Richmond, KPAC Solutions has purchased businesses in USA, Europe, South America and Asia. Typical candidates are subsidiaries/divisions of Fortune 1000 industrial companies. To date we have purchased businesses from the likes of Standex, Kennametal, Terex, Lesco, Triarc and others. Revenues range from $20 to $300 million and generally have negative EBITDA. If you are looking for certainty and expediency in the sale of your business, look no further. We offer sellers a unique, timely solution for the sale of their business under circumstances where time is of the essence.
If you are faced with any of the following situations, we can help you:
A breakdown in the formal selling process initiated by a Broker or Investment Banker that leaves the Seller with no clear alternative to quickly exit the business;
A non-core Asset/Company that may or may not have operating difficulties that the Seller wants to sell in a shorter time frame than the traditional 6 to 12 months;
A troubled or money losing Company that needs to be quickly sold to minimize the continued losses or eliminate any distraction or embarrassment for the Seller; or
An acquired business unit or division within a larger group of Companies that was purchased and is targeted as a non-core business for immediate disposition.
Our acquisition candidates include private businesses, divisions of larger companies and publicly traded companies, businesses in Chapter 11 proceedings, equity group portfolio companies and businesses involved with bank workout groups. Cross-border transactions are not a hurdle for our international team of seasoned professionals.
Confidentiality is a mutual concern. We are committed to completing transactions discretely.
