I'm thrilled to present Liv Brands, the search fund I'm leading, as we pursue the acquisition of a long-established, high-end apparel business catering to Women, specifically boomers.
Here's a quick overview of the company under LOI;
Business Type: Long established high-end apparel for women, boomers (Loyal category with less competition and fluctuation) Strengths: Customer loyalty, no key-man risk, no client concentration, strong team in place Investment Terms: Purchase price $1.5 million, seeking to raise $150k, 2.5x EBITDA multiple. As an investor, you'd be looking at a potential return of 4.40x, with an equity post-close of 17% and a step-up of 3.0x.
With 15 years of experience in this industry, I'm fully prepared to take on operational responsibilities post-close as the owner-operator. I'm particularly interested in partnering with investors who bring a complimentary skill set, especially in areas like financial modeling for business expansion and process refinement.
If you have a knack for financial analysis, or excel in operational optimization, this could be a fantastic opportunity for us to collaborate and grow this unique and steady company for the benefit of all.
I'd love to discuss this opportunity further and see if it resonates with your investment goals and expertise.
Please evaluate working capital history, inventory processes extensively. Apparel is not an easy category and you need to think deeply about the supply chain, cycles within your channels, and end customer.
Ideally you are doing >60% merchandise margins, and have sub <10% spend on marketing. That will give you some room to reinvest but below that, it is tough
