Exit and succession planning is one of the most important strategies you will need to implement throughout the life of your business, and whether you are ready to start today or in 10 years, it’s never too early to begin the discussions.
The Schneider Downs Exit and Succession Planning team understand that every engagement is unique with each client having specific goals, objectives and needs based on their individual circumstances.
Below are sample client profiles illustrating the different scenarios that can benefit from exit and succession planning services.
Are there equity arrangements available to bring associates into the ownership fold?”
How can I learn more about the due diligence process to ensure my company’s value is represented accurately?”
How can we grow the business without losing control or sight of our mission?”
Are my children capable to run the business? Do they even want to?”
Who can lead the company when I leave? Is there family or a current leader that can carry it forward, or is a direct sale better?”
Does an ESOP make sense compared to individuals separately owning shares?”
How can I find and attract the right talent to help my company grow and increase in value?”
What if we can’t find a buyer?”
Whether you are unsure of your next steps, are looking at a buyer, private equity or public offering or thinking of transitioning to family, key management, gifting to individuals or trusts, or considering an ESOP, Schneider Downs will listen, understand, create, manage and fully execute your exit and succession plan.
