A clear, step-by-step overview of how opportunities are submitted, reviewed and potentially pursued.
A prospective seller, business owner, intermediary or qualified representative submits basic information about the opportunity. This can be done through our online submission form, by email or by phone.
We welcome contact from business owners, brokers, intermediaries, advisors and other qualified parties with legitimate opportunities to present.
ABS reviews the basic information submitted and determines whether the opportunity appears relevant to its current investment focus. This preliminary review is not a commitment to pursue the opportunity.
Not every submission will advance to the next stage. We review each submission on its individual merits and alignment with our current focus.
If the opportunity appears relevant, we may request additional information. This could include financial statements, operational summaries, asset descriptions, market information or other relevant materials.
We aim to make information requests clear and specific so that parties can provide what is needed efficiently.
Available financial, operational, market and strategic information is reviewed. We assess the opportunity against our investment criteria and form a preliminary view of its potential.
This evaluation is based on the information provided. Incomplete or inaccurate information may affect the evaluation.
Where appropriate and where the opportunity remains attractive following initial evaluation, additional due diligence may be conducted. This may involve professional advisors.
Due diligence requirements vary depending on the nature, size and complexity of the transaction.
If the opportunity remains attractive following evaluation and due diligence, transaction terms may be discussed. This involves negotiating the structure, price and conditions of any potential transaction.
We approach negotiations professionally and with the goal of reaching terms that are fair and workable for all parties.
Subject to satisfactory completion of due diligence, agreement on terms, preparation of documentation, receipt of required approvals and satisfaction of applicable requirements, a transaction may proceed to closing.
Closing timelines vary. We aim to communicate clearly throughout the process so that all parties understand the expected timeline.
The process described above is general in nature. Actual processes may vary based on the specific opportunity, information available, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other circumstances. ABS Acquisitions Group LLC does not guarantee that it will complete any transaction or that any submitted opportunity will be reviewed, pursued or accepted.
