We give you expert help when it's time to sell your company

Based on your company's strengths and benefits and what your interest looks like, we will find one
strategy and plan for how you best sell all or part of your shareholding.

We will talk through the following areas:

The market for your company and your business
Discussion about possible future owner partners
How to prepare the company in the best way before a sale
The different parts of a sales process

The various parts of the sales process include: contacts and meetings with potential buyers, confidentiality agreements, information documents, requirements for process and bidding, received bids, due diligence and data rooms, contract negotiations and access and payments.

All in all, preparation and strategy for choosing the right buyer are two of the points that create
best future outcome for you as a salesperson.

Our process

PREPARE

Step 1: In this phase, Beachhouse One (BHO), together with you, goes through your conditions and the preparations of your company need to be made in areas such as financial reporting, order and order, data rooms, taxes, agreements, processes and other things that are crucial for a good deal. Here we also address strategy, valuation and the types of transaction that may be appropriate.

SELL

Step 2: BHO continues to work on the project by producing documentation such as teasers, presentations and information memoranda. After that, BHO processes candidates and contacts people such as chairman of the board, managers or CEOs of stakeholders. With those who want deeper information, BHO signs a confidentiality agreement (NDA).

MEET

Step 3. Here, BHO arranges meetings, where both you and the stakeholder present the business, the market, your respective plans and how the businesses fit together strategically. The purpose is to find the right one between sellers and buyers. As a result, BHO submits our demands for the continuation, a so-called Process letter and the interested party submits an indicative bid for your company.

NEGOTIATE

Step 4. The next step is a company inspection called Due Dilligence, where BHO participates as project manager and provides qualified IT system support. In parallel with DD, contract negotiations are conducted with issues such as purchase price, several agreements regarding share transfer, shareholders and other areas. BHO assists you, your lawyers and tax experts.

PAY

Step 5. BHO assists in the implementation of the transaction right up until access and payment of the purchase price to you.

Sell your company, but keep developing the deal and making money

For owners of IT companies who have built up their company for many years, everyday life after they reduce working hours or after retirement is a big and important issue. It is common for them to choose to sell all or part of the company but continue to be involved in other ways to secure their future assets. Beachhouse One specializes in matching owners with the right buyers and finding industrial synergies between the two to achieve the best possible results going forward.

The business owner usually does not want to stop working completely but instead chooses to remain in the management or as a board member after the sale of his company. However, this requires finding the right buyer who has the same view of how the company should be run and who can show care for staff and customers. This is motivated by both the buyer and the seller's interest as they do not receive the maximum and long-term value of the company in the event of a sale. If the owners instead work for three to four years and take advantage of business synergies in the new constellation, a higher value is created for both.

Stronger together

Per-Olov Lindgren at the consulting firm Beachhouse one specializes in mergers and acquisitions and finding just the right match between owner and buyer. This is not about cutting costs and saving on staff but instead seeing how the company can become a better supplier to its customers.

- I work with putting together several companies that have their own strength - one can have the customer base while the other has good products/services that can be sold to these customers, says Per-Olov. By merging several companies, they become a stronger player together. This will create profitable growth and the managers can stay and run their business at the same time as the company's identity and the brand they have built up can often survive together.

Create a large IT group

There is a market for a new large IT group that is built up by several companies with SEK 50–200 million in sales each. With a strong financial principal owner and profitable companies in the group, one can be included in a larger context such as:

Achieve stability, growth and profitability

Can compete and win customer agreements with large and public customers
Have capital to invest in recruitment, products / services and sales / marketing
Can invest and take risks in concepts and new ideas
Can make acquisitions
Increases the value of the companies that are part of the Group
