Pivoting for Growth – The Role of Acquisitions


Presented by:  WMEP Manufacturing Solutions
Location:  Webinar Time: 8:00 - 9:00am


Research shows a proactive M&A strategy enables companies to grow through downturns or aggressively in early recovery – the key is to ACT NOW.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a variety of business challenges and has changed the focus of many business leaders. As in past financial and economic crises, uncertainties in the business and capital markets have caused many M&A buyers, sellers, and their lenders to pause. Despite this sobering environment, some companies are looking beyond today’s challenges and formulating strategies to turn crisis into opportunity. As in previous crises, we expect this pandemic to produce opportunistic M&A openings which otherwise may not have existed.

This webinar will discuss sourcing of acquisitions, valuation and financing, and structure and closing. In addition, we will look at deals which are getting done, deals which cannot get done, and potential M&A hotspots which can help you grow, expand and diversify while your competitors sit on the sidelines.

Session Take-aways:
• A counterintuitive growth strategy
• Market outlook and opportunities during COVID
• Expectations for the post-COVID market
• Sourcing strategy and valuation
• Understanding of bank lending environment
