Selling your company, or raising fresh capital, is not easy.
Onyx Associates fully understands. We're a Merger & Acquisition Services firm that specializes in selling or recapitalizing companies like yours from $3M to $50M in size. Onyx delivers, manages & integrates a complete set of M&A services to help our clients deal with such challenges such as:
- Timing is everything - Can your personal goals be met by selling your business now, or is it better to wait? Our Business Valuation service can help you make this decision, free of charge.
- Timetable - An M&A transaction can take 9 to 12 months or longer - Does your business plan take this timetable into account? Onyx's M&A Planner can help assess this, while simultaneously suggesting tactics for Balance Sheet cleanup, Expense Adjustments, and other important M&A considerations.
- Access - Tax Specialists, Attorneys, Valuation Specialists and other professional services are all typically necessary to complete a successful transaction. Do you know the best people, and how to manage them in concert? Onyx will identify, integrate and manage them as a team, on your behalf, as part of our Integrated Services program.
- Personal Tax Impact; Negotiation of a fair price; Employee Retention incentives; management Earn-Out contracts, and more. All are uncharted territory to many business owners - Can you confidently craft the best results for yourself and your employees? We can review multiple scenarios based on personal experience and best practices, develop strategies, coach you for negotiations with investor/buyers, and assemble backup data to support your position.
Our Success is based on our ability to contribute critical assets during an M&A transaction , including:
- Wide access to Investment Capital and Strategic Buyers.
- Onyx keeps track of and has access to thousands of potential buyers through its own database and through affiliations with national and international M&A organizations.
- Talent and time to absorb, summarize and sell your company's key features.
- Our entire focus is on marketing and selling your business or helping you find and obtain capital, leaving you to concentrate on running the business.

- The M&A process is complex. A large percentage of deals don't make it past the "letter of intent" stage if all participants are not managed effectively . It's critical to have a firm, sensitive and dedicated resource to maintain momentum, resolve problems and above all maintain communication between all parties.
