Are you interested in selling your business?
At MTL Capital, we acquire small to medium-sized businesses while striving to preserve the unique culture and legacy of each company.
Mission
Having grown up in family businesses, we understand the dedication, hard work, and heart it takes to build something lasting.
Unlike some other buyers, we aren’t
focused on financial engineering or short-term gains. We’re committed to hands-on operational involvement and thoughtful investment that fosters long-term success.
As owner operators, our promise is to build upon the established foundation, ensuring that the values and vision that made the business a success continue to thrive.
Focus
At MTL Partners, we’re interested in businesses that are the absolute best at what they do and make their customers extremely happy.
We buy both product and service-based companies with innovative technologies, a diverse and growing customer base, and identifiable competitive advantages.
Ideal candidates have established brands and reputations, with annual revenues of $3-$10MN, a minimum EBITDA of $500k, and margins exceeding 20%.
We work with retiring owners or entrepreneurs seeking value realization, and look for businesses with strong non-owner management in place to ensure continuity and operational excellence.
Process
We prioritize clear communication, flexibility, and a timely, efficient closing process. Our goal is to complete the purchase within 45–60 days of first contact.
Here’s more about our process.
Step 1: Establishing Mutual Fit
Start with a high-level discussion to understand the business and for the owner to get to know us.
Step 2: Initial Business Assessment
Assess the business’s competitive position, financials, and growth potential. Then provide the seller with an LOI.
Step 3: Comprehensive Due Diligence
Conduct thorough due diligence in legal, accounting, risk, HR, and customer areas, all with discretion, aiming to achieve the best deal terms for both parties.
Step 4: Executing the Transaction
Finalize legal documents, fund the deal, and start executing the transition plan.
Conclusion
At MTL Capital, we approach each acquisition with respect for what you’ve built.
If you’ve dedicated years to building a successful business and are now considering your next chapter, we invite you to reach out.
