In 2013, Dell Technologies used a management buyout to take the computing giant out of public hands. More recently, fashion retailer Peacocks used an MBO to rise out of administration, and members of one KPMG division used a management buyout to spin themselves away from their parent company. With the flexibility to fulfil almost any change of ownership for every type of company, an MBO is the Swiss army knife of finance tools.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4de2986 uael-heading-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-uael-table-of-contents\" data-id=\"4de2986\" data-element_type=\"widget\" id=\"table-of-content-column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;heading_text_align&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;heading_bottom_space&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;heading_bottom_space_laptop&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;heading_bottom_space_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;heading_bottom_space_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;separator_bottom_space&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;separator_bottom_space_laptop&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;separator_bottom_space_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;separator_bottom_space_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;content_between_space&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:15,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;content_between_space_laptop&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;content_between_space_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;content_between_space_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"uael-table-of-contents.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-toc-main-wrapper\" data-headings=\"h2,h3,h4\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-toc-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-toc-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"uael-toc-heading elementor-inline-editing\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"heading_title\" data-elementor-inline-editing-toolbar=\"basic\" ><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-toc-toggle-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-toc-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul data-toc-headings=\"headings\" class=\"uael-toc-list uael-toc-list-none\" data-scroll=\"\" ><\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-toc-empty-note\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span>Add a header to begin generating the table of contents<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e26ae08 question elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e26ae08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is a management buyout?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e797b22 answer elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e797b22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A management buyout, or MBO, involves the purchase of all or part of a company by its existing management team, usually with the help of external financing. In most cases, the management team takes full control and ownership of the business and the old owners retire or move on to other ventures.<\/p><p>The most common reasons for an MBO are:<\/p><ul><li>The old company ownership wishes to exit the business.<\/li><li>A parent company wishes to divest itself of a subsidiary or a business division.<\/li><li>The company is in distress or has gone into receivership, but still has potential.<\/li><li>The management team perceives greater business opportunity under new ownership.<\/li><\/ul><p>When a business is going through change of ownership, the MBO is an alternative to liquidation, or selling, merging, or transferring the business to a third-party. For owners wishing to sell, the MBO may be preferable to a trade sale for a variety of reasons: It eliminates the time-consuming task of finding a trade buyer. There\u2019s no need to approach competitors and disclose sensitive or proprietary information. They can leave the company in \u201csafe hands\u201d. (Which can be important when the seller has a strong emotional attachment to the business).<\/p><p>For managers wishing to buy, an MBO gives them ownership of a business they already know. This removes the uncertainty of a startup, and the risks associated with the purchase of an unknown entity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a01ecf question elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0a01ecf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How does a management buyout (MBO) work?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fbe9bb0 answer elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fbe9bb0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Typically, an MBO will take up to six months to complete.

This may require an independent valuation.<\/li><li>The management team assesses the amount they can invest. This sum comes from their personal assets and typically, it is only part of the sale price. Further funding is usually required.\u00a0<\/li><li>Detailed financial analysis is conducted. This includes creating a forecast financial model to reveal the serviceability of any debt and the potential returns for investors.<\/li><li>The buyout team approaches funders.

The most obvious of which is the smooth transition from one owner to the next. Because the buyers in an MBO are already closely associated with the company, their continued presence can be soothing to existing customers, partners, vendors, and employees. A management buyout indicates minimal disruption and a continuation of \u2018business as usual\u2019, (even though the new owners will usually have new ideas for running the company).<\/p><p>An MBO protects sensitive and proprietary information. In a trade sale, potential buyers will demand to see the internal workings of the company. Advantageous processes that have been kept secret may be revealed. This can leave them vulnerable to copycat operators.<\/p><p>The management buyout team will usually be familiar with the company\u2019s health. This can reduce the due diligence and speed up the transaction.<\/p><p>Lastly, an MBO offers the seller the opportunity to find the company \u2018a good home\u2019.

However, in an LBO, the company\u2019s existing assets are sold or pledged as collateral to raise some or all the purchase cash.<\/p><p>This process is similar to the popular lease-back financing model. In a lease-back, a company will sell a hard asset, such as a building, to raise funds. It will then lease the same building back from the new owner. This allows the company to monetise non-performing assets to raise funds for operations, but still have the asset available for business use.<\/p><p>In an LBO, this type of lending is called asset finance. The buyout team leverages the value of assets such as property, plant, or machinery, to borrow money to buy the business from the outgoing owner. The new owners will still be able to use those assets, but they will now make repayments and pay interest until the loans are satisfied. An LBO reduces the asset value of the business as it simultaneously increases the debt burden.<\/p><p>Confused?

However, there are differences between these purchase models:<\/p><p><strong>Management buy-in (MBI)<\/strong><\/p><p>In an MBI, a third-party team from outside the company buys the business from the current owners to become the company\u2019s new management. They usually replace the existing management in key roles. This makes an MBI different from a simple trade sale, where a buyer purchases the business, but leaves the existing management team intact. Management buy-in teams are sometimes called \u2018turnaround teams\u2019 and they will often compete with other potential purchasers for the business. This may produce a better sale price for the outgoing owners.<\/p><p><strong>Buy-in management buyout (BIMBO)<\/strong><\/p><p>A BIMBO is a hybrid purchase transaction. It incorporates elements of an MBO and an MBI.\u00a0In a BIMBO, outside managers join with existing inside managers to buy the company from the outgoing owners. The outside managers buy-in, whilst the inside managers buy-out the old owners. It is a purchasing partnership between the existing management team and a new management team. A BIMBO can reduce the amount of external borrowing required, as the pool of purchasers is increased. It can also bring in new talent that enhances the business proposition to potential funders.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f5b1dc question elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0f5b1dc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Management buyout examples<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e84f603 answer elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e84f603\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAs recent examples reveal, management buyouts vary by size and industry type.\n<ul>\n \t<li>In a $470m deal, military data and intelligence company Jane\u2019s, was bought out from parent company IHS Markit.

This vehicle allows company owners to increase their financial gains when selling all or part of their business. For owners with more than 5% of a company\u2019s shares, it lets them apply a reduced rate of 10% capital gains tax (CGT) on the profits they make when they sell qualifying assets (such as their company shares) up to \u20ac1 million.

It is rare for the buyout team to have enough liquid capital to buy the business for cash, which means there is usually a need for external funding. The most popular routes to secure this money are:<\/p><p><strong>Private loan<\/strong><\/p><p>Members of the buyout team use unsecured and secured personal loans to fund the MBO. For <a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/business-loans\/secured-business-loans\/\">secured lending<\/a>, team members will provide their homes, pension plans and other non-cash assets as collateral The loans may take the form of equity release mortgages, bank loans, or finance company loans. Good credit references are usually essential and, as with all secured lending, these assets are at risk should the business fail after the MBO.<\/p><p><strong>Business loan<\/strong><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/business-loans\/\">Business loans<\/a>\u00a0from bank or finance companies may be obtained to fund the transaction. Depending on the track record and the type of business being purchased, <a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/business-loans\/unsecured-business-loans\/\">unsecured lending<\/a> may be possible. However, unsecured lending is generally much smaller than secured lending and, in many cases, the lender will take a lien on the company and all its assets, including its sales ledger, to secure the borrowing. Loan terms are typically 3 to 5 years.<\/p><p><strong>Asset finance<\/strong><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/business-loans\/asset-finance\/\">Leveraging against the assets<\/a>\u00a0in the company, such as property, stocks, or debtors. If the business owns substantial assets, those assets may be used as collateral for borrowing. This type of arrangement is called a leveraged buy-out, as the company\u2019s assets are leveraged to buy out the old owner. With an LBO, the balance sheet\u2019s liability burden will increase at the same time as its asset base reduces. The business will usually retain full access to the assets during the term of the loan.<\/p><p><strong>Private equity (PE)<\/strong><\/p><p>A steadily increasing source of finance even at the smaller end of the market. Cash is provided by venture capitalists, hedge funds and private investors in exchange for shares, board seats, dividends, fees, and varying degrees of control. This source of funding can be harder to obtain, but it can offer the chance to scale up as the company grows. Many VC and equity lenders will have an exit strategy that sees them liquidating their position in 1 to 3 years. The management team may need to find replacement funds at that point. They will also repay the lender based on future valuation. If the business has seen growth, this may mean the sum repaid is substantially larger than the sum invested.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/knowledge-hub\/mezzanine-finance\/\"><strong>Mezzanine finance<\/strong><\/a><\/p><p>A hybrid of debt and equity financing that gives the lender the right to convert to an equity interest in the company in case of default, generally, after venture capital companies and other senior lenders are paid.<\/p><p><strong>Seller loan<\/strong><\/p><p>Also called vendor loans. The seller helps to fund the transaction by leaving some of their consideration in the company as loan notes to be repaid over time. In effect, their ownership reduces over an extended period.

Although an MBO would seem the most likely candidate to secure succession, other options include:<\/p><ul><li>Trade sale: Direct sale to a third party, often a competing business operating in the same sector.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Family transfer: A family member takes over the reins.

The owner still retains ownership and ultimate control.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Employee buyout: The business is sold to all the employees, not just the current management. Typically, this involves a\u00a0 co-operative arrangement for shared ownership.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Stock market float: The business offers shares to buyers via an IPO. The owner sells their shares, and the stockholders appoint new management.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>The employees wishing to buy<\/strong><\/p><p>If an MBO is not feasible, the company employees could still purchase the business via an employee buyout. This form is succession involves all the company employees, not just the management team and they can own the business in various ways, either directly or indirectly.<\/p><ul><li>Indirect ownership: Employees set up a trust that holds shares on behalf of the employees. The trust might hold the shares forever, or distribute them to individual employees, or a combination of the two. It can also buy shares back from employees who want to sell (for example, when they retire).<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Direct ownership: Employees can also own shares in their own names. One option is for employees to acquire their shares over time. This could be as bonuses, or part of their remuneration. Alternatively, the shares could be purchased by an employee trust which later distributes them. Or some shares could be owned directly by individual employees, while an employee trust owns and keeps the rest. Additionally, the employees may choose to form a co-operative that then acquires the business. Putting shares into an employee trust can have significant tax advantages. Using a trust may also be a good way of raising bank finance to acquire the shares.<\/li><\/ul><p>Should an MBO or an employee buyout not be possible, the management team could also consider a startup. This would be a completely new business, but it would have the benefit of the skills, ideas, contacts, and resources of a proven management team, which may make it easier to acquire startup capital in the form of investment, loans, or grants.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-992e2df question elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"992e2df\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How do I apply for management buyout finance?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a68fc4 answer elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5a68fc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>MBO, MBI, BIMBO, LBO, trade sale, spin-off, startup \u2013 there are many ways to start, buy, or sell a business.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ireland.swoopfunding.com\/stage\">Register with Swoop<\/a>\u00a0today for confidential advice on the type of transaction that is best for you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-24136d9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-ucaddon_author_page\" data-id=\"24136d9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"ucaddon_author_page.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\n <div class=\"info-user-post\">\n \n <div class=\"left-info\">\n <a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/author\/chris-godfrey\/\" aria-label=\"Chris Godfrey\">\n <picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\">\n <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/chris-godfrey-author.webp\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/chris-godfrey-author.webp?is-pending-load=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"jetpack-lazy-image\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"92\" height=\"92\">\n <\/picture>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n <div class=\"right-info\">\n <div class=\"inner-top\">\n <div class=\"info-top\">\n <a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/author\/chris-godfrey\/\" aria-label=\"Chris Godfrey\" class=\"link-img\">\n <picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\">\n <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/chris-godfrey-author.webp\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/chris-godfrey-author.webp?is-pending-load=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"jetpack-lazy-image\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"92\" height=\"92\">\n <\/picture>\n <\/a>\n \n <div class=\"info-title\">\n <p>Written by<\/p>\n <p class=\"name-author\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/ie\/author\/chris-godfrey\/\">Chris Godfrey<\/a><\/h3>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <div class=\"info-bottom\">\n <p>Chris is a freelance copywriter and content creator.
