Malibu Strategic Search

The Malibu Group knows how to search for the right acquisition.  As merger and acquisition professionals, we have been involved in well over 200 transactions and have developed a proven process to guide us in searching for the best target companies.

  • We are experts in digging - we can find the right company for you. We have developed a portfolio of business intelligence resources to use in finding the right business partner - and we know how to conduct focused research in order to gain the best results.
  • We are experts in networking - we have key business relationships that can serve you in your search process. We have a developed network of business relationships - senior business leaders in various industries and services.

Our typical search process includes the following key steps in finding the right partner:

  • Developing our knowledge base of you and the industry
  • Creating a profile of prospective buyers or sellers from this information
  • Performing the search for prospective buyers or sellers
  • Investigating the best prospects in order to understand who they are and what their goals are to determine if they are a good match for the transaction
  • Approaching the most closely matched firms in a confidential manner, and
  • Delivering several companies to you

The bottom line is that The Malibu Group understands and effectively embraces the search process; identifies and penetrates the right targets; has successfully performed a variety of searches; keeps acquisition initiatives confidential; helps avoid disclosure of your intentions to prospects; allows you to sidestep confrontation with competitors; and frees senior management to focus on day-to-day operations while still keeping the focus on the transaction.
