I recently came across an opportunity that is effectively a turnaround. A sub $6M revenue business in the Midwest that has seen a recent decline under new ownership that is now looking to exit. New owners (small family office) are not operators which is why they are experiencing headwinds and looking to exit.

My partner(s) and I have extensive turnaround experience at one of the largest shops in the world. Bank financing is not an option given the turnaround aspect. Are there alternative financing shops / groups that folks are aware of that would be interested in participating in this type of acquisition? This would be purchased at >50% discount with likely a heavy seller carry / earn out as well so it can be structured in a way to minimize risk.

More information will be shared with anyone that would be interested in participating.
