“Maximizing Enterprise Value: It’s Never too Soon to Start!” 
Los Angeles Chapter meeting on February 19
An important presentation for investors and company owners.
The most common statement made by selling private owners at the close: “I wish I had started thinking about selling at least 3-5 years ago and started asking questions and preparing for the sale then. My multiple would have been a lot higher.” If you are an investor (private equity group or venture capital) or a company owner, you shouldn’t miss Larry O’Toole’s presentation when he shares how he was able to meet an owner’s multiple target by starting early and asking the right questions.
As we all know, the aerospace industry is currently experiencing a frenzy of acquisitions.
Selling a business is all about risk. The higher the risk, the lower the value. The lower the risk, the higher the value. As business leaders, it is a primary function of our positions to increase the attractiveness of our businesses and ready them for scrutiny by a potential buyer. Whether you run a department, or an entire business, creating enterprise value is a key part, if not the sole purpose, of the job. Too often, however, thought is given too late in the game.
Please join us in Los Angeles, CA on Friday, February 19, 2016 (networking at 7:00am, meeting 7:30– 9:00am PST), when Larry O’Toole, CEO of Sanders Industries Holdings, Inc. will discuss the tangible and effective steps that can be taken to build enterprise value and, most of all, how to capture it through a liquidity event.
