M&A Insights From Our Team to Yours

We’ve done this, too.

Our Managing Directors have founded, led and sold healthcare companies. That’s how we get M&A deals right.

We sweat the details.

We understand the nuances of valuation and combine that with forecasting to set your transaction up for success.

We won’t let up.

A typical sales process takes 6 to 10 months. We negotiate constantly to mitigate your risk and increase value.

We're in it for you.

We’ve seen where deals break down and why. We know the terrain, guide you through it and deliver.

Do I really need an M&A advisor?

Getting the best deal for your healthcare business takes expertise and patience. We’ve got both.

Selling your business is not a DIY project. Unfortunately, we’ve seen what happens when owners try to go it alone, from skipping due diligence to taking the first offer. These mistakes are costly and can even prevent deals from getting done at all. That’s why we pride ourselves in hand-in-glove service, guiding you through valuation, marketing and negotiation, until we close the best possible deal. To make sure we are able to provide you with our full attention and the best possible outcome, we only take on a select number of clients at a time.

I worked closely with VERTESS and we prepared our company for acquisition, negotiated a final agreement, and concluded the sale of our company. They skillfully advised us on several key points and were there for us even after closing the deal. Very professional all around.

The VERTESS team advised me with a very professional, long-term perspective as we negotiated the labyrinth of due diligence and some complexities in the regulatory process. The end result was so positive that I enlisted their services in pursuing the acquisition of another company. I have no hesitation in referring VERTESS to other perspective buyers or sellers.

I want to thank VERTESS for the personal attention and support they gave as I planned for the sale of the behavioral health company that my husband and his team operated for 20 years. VERTESS brought expertise and guidance through every step of the process, from the preparation of data, negotiation, and conclusion of the sale of Supported Living Systems. They helped keep my priorities in the forefront and offered alternative strategies for reaching goals. VERTESS kept the discussion on a steady course and gave thoughtful and wise advice at every point in the process, as we moved to a successful conclusion for both companies.

I have known the VERTESS team and worked with them in different capacities over the past 30 years. Most recently, they represented our company in a successful asset sale. They were very professional and respected all of our concerns along the way. Although selling a business is difficult, they made it much easier for all of us. Going forward VERTESS is going to set the standard for healthcare mergers and acquisitions.
