Q: Why do I need to complete a "Buyer Registration Form?"
A: Your completion of the "Acquisition Requirement Form" assists The March Group in matching your requirements to our inventory of acquisition candidates. Our inventory of available companies changes frequently, as new companies enter the market and others transactions are completed. Our understanding of the business characteristics, size and location you require will help us match you with existing and future candidates, in our inventory. In addition, when presenting a potential acquirer to our clients for review, it is appropriate for us to understand and effectively portray the investment criteria and financial capability of the buyer.

Q: What is the price of the company for sale?
A:
The March Group does not believe there is a single price appropriate for each of the companies we represent. Rather, each company has a variety of value dimensions depending on the characteristics of the buyer. A buyer who is able to realize business synergies by combining the client company with its own operation, or by eliminating duplicative expenses, may have a different value expectation than a buyer who would operate the business as a stand-alone entity. Furthermore, a buyer with access to lower-cost senior debt may have a different valuation than a buyer who would finance a purchase through higher cost mezzanine financing. The March Group recommends that each prospective buyer evaluate the acquisition opportunity according to its own particular business characteristics and goals, and price the business accordingly.
