Structuring a smooth and straightforward exit
Challenge
Two co-founders — at different stages of life — had built a strong business. One was ready to retire and the other was keen to take the business forward. Both were aligned on the need for a transition, but needed guidance on valuation, structure, and how to handle the process without stress.
Andy’s Intervention
Andy supported both parties to define a deal that worked for them and the business. He advised on valuation, payment terms, and the transition process — ensuring the business was protected and the outgoing founder felt appreciated and fairly compensated.
Impact
The exit was handled seamlessly. The outgoing founder retired with peace of mind, and the remaining founder took the business forward with clarity. Both described it as a win-win, and the business didn’t skip a beat in the process.
