Sierra helps clients achieve superior results.  With the M&A market continuing as the primary vehicle for liquidity, a winning exit strategy is essential to the successful sale of a business.  With deep industry knowledge and broad buyer access, Sierra can quickly and quietly approach a seller’s “natural” buyer with an attractive offering proposal.   We know market conditions, how to position the sell opportunity, how much to ask and how to avoid litigation.

Capital chases the best deals.  We have broad access to buyers – strategic buyers, financial buyers, public acquirers and foreign investors.  We provide a full range of advisory services to owners of privately-held companies, publicly-held corporations, private-equity firms and high net-worth individuals.  We have the skills to quickly focus on doable deals and know how to balance seller’s wishes with buyer’s demands.  We have substantial expertise in merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions, providing strategic and financial advice and executing the chosen transaction. 

We think globally.  We have worked with buyers in 14 countries.  Our broad access to international buyers provide our “sell-side” clients with an extraordinary marketing edge.  Few of our competitors, other than the “bulge bracket firms,” can skillfully access this deep capital base.

We are not constrained by deal size.  While most of today’s deep-pocket buyers seek acquisitions with annual pre-tax profits in excess of $3 million, Sierra has the expertise and innovation to position a sell opportunity so as to attract buyers looking for market access, product innovation and investment opportunities.

M&A is a strategic necessity for companies of every size. Indeed, having an M&A strategy - being prepared to acquire, to merge, or to be acquired - is a necessity, both for CEOs of today's entrepreneurial companies and corporate giants.

We are efficient, capable and discreet.  We are in the transaction business – helping owners sell their companies.  We want owners to get the best price for their business and fight hard to avoid the emotional tragedy of a broken deal.

We would like to discuss your thoughts about our ability to represent you in a potential sale transaction.
