Disciplined process and criteria
1. Meet with potential partners to evaluate cultural and strategic fit
2. Discuss the Principal’s vision, motivations to sell and timing
3. Can Steadfast as a partner add value to the business?
4. Can we merge with an existing entity/become a Corporate AR?
**5.** Analyse the financials and propose a non-binding valuation
**6.** Perform due diligence incl. financial, legal & tax
**7.** Close the deal
8.
Transition the business into the family
50
Not afraid to walk away
We view numerous deals that do not complete with the primary reasons being:
-
Culturally incompatible
-
Vendor expectations too high
-
Not part of our core business
-
Endless negotiation and deal fatigue
-
Margins too low
51
Mergers and Hubs
-
Hubs established in six states
-
25 entities merged into 8 platforms
-
On track to deliver 7% EBITA margin improvement for Hubs by FY17
