As a business owner, what keeps you up at night? Do you wonder how you will sell or transfer ownership of the company? Do concerns over successors’ ability to run the business worry you? Does your retirement depend too much on successors? Will you have enough money to retire in the lifestyle you desire? Do you know . . . how to convert your largest, illiquid asset into cash? If answers to these questions are troubling you, you are not alone. Surveys show that as many as 40% of the 9 million privately held companies in the U.S. will change hands over the next 10 years — a virtual tidal wave of wealth transfer that some experts project at $10 trillion. The questions you as a business owner face are not always easy to answer. How much is my business worth?Does it make sense to turn the business over to my children? When I leave will my key employees remain to help run it? Is there a third-party who might want to buy the business? What are the legal and tax implications of a sale? Will the proceeds from a transfer fund my retirement? We can help you answer these questions. As veteran transaction advisors and liquidity planning professionals, SEA creates plans for owners like you to help preserve and protect the value of your company for yourself and your family. If a third party sale is your best option, we can maximize the after tax dollars that go into your pocket.
