There are many factors that determine an asset's value, so it’s difficult to provide exact guidance. For us, everything ultimately comes down to two attributes of your go-forward unlevered free cash flow profile: growth and stability. We’re rigorous and consistent in our underwriting of these characteristics and use a variety of factors in our proprietary model. Some factors are super general (e.g. size, age, profitability, stability, etc.), some are more specific to us (e.g. an intense focus on revenue quality / customer retention, ROIC) and some are more specific to the industry (e.g. injector turnover for our Botox platforms). However, we promise to be more than fair, provide super quick feedback and always keep your information confidential.

Our team is led by experienced operators and world-class investment professionals (typically from larger investment firms such as Blackstone Private Equity, Apollo Private Equity, Viking Global, etc.). Whether it is operations, finance, or something else, we like to think we can add value while being great partners to work with.

We can be super flexible in how we structure our partnership and we'll tailor it to your goals. We structure some deals as all-cash payouts. We structure other deals with an ‘equity roll’ component (i.e. you will keep minority ownership) or with an earn-out or seller-note component (i.e. you are partially paid cash upfront and then receive the remaining cash later). Further, we typically keep the current non-CEO operating team in place with a more-than-fair industry compensation package. People are the heart and soul of Tucker's Farm Corporation, and we make sure our team members know that!

Absolutely! In fact, we love to work with business owners who want to stay on board post-transaction (and keep getting paid!). Of course, if you want to cash out and enjoy the margaritas, we can accommodate that as well (which is frankly more common).

Almost always. Non-competes and non-solicits are commonplace in any M&A transaction and typically important to us. As with everything we do, we try to work with the seller and be highly reasonable in our approach to these documents. If this is a sticking point for you, just let us know.

We try to keep the information requests to a minimum until we get to an agreement on valuation and key terms. Once we are aligned, we launch a quick due diligence process to validate the one to three big points. We pride ourselves on being quick and easy to work with. If we enter a preliminary agreement with you, it means we trust you as a partner. When that is the case, we don’t sweat the small stuff.

Absolutely. Ideally your advisor knows deals (that being said, we’ve dealt with pinch hitting divorce attorneys and are happy to oblige).
