DENTAL COmPANIES:
BUYING? SELLING? EXPANDING?  

manufacturers, dealers, SERVICES, TECHNOLOGIES, SOFTWARE, organizations 
AS M&A ADVISORS and BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT CONSULTANTS, WE CAN HELP!!!

Picture

         Even in today's "bizarre" business environment, DENTISTRY as an INDUSTRY, has a VERY BRIGHT FUTURE!
  Yet, GROWING YOUR DENTAL COMPANY via ORGANIC GROWTH is becoming, for many reasons, more challenging than ever. Most business and financial advisors say that the "answer" (to increase revenues) is to turning to M&A -- whether that be as an acquirer OR to consider being acquired. 


Acquiring another company doesn't have to mean a HUGE investment. There are hundreds and hundreds of dental companies out there -- all sorts of shapes, sizes, products -- which can mean that a modest investment can result in ANY/ALL of the following:  an expansion of your product offerings, an "elimination" a competitor, an increase your customer base dramatically, and a skyrocketing in revenues.    
 
Being acquired doesn't mean "retiring", "leaving", "jumping ship" (or whatever term you wish to use).  And, it doesn't mean having to sell ALL of the company. This may be especially important if you are, say a "third generation" family-owned operation. 
However, you can get cash now (while at peak value), stay aboard and continue to lead and grow the company, reduce some of the "headaches" of managing the business, and have access to additional financial resources you perhaps didn't have before.  
                                


                THINKING ABOUT SELLING YOUR COMPANY?   

We have  C- LEVEL CONNECTIONS AND BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS WITH 500+ DENTAL COMPANIES GLOBALLY! 

                                                 Here's a list of services we can do for you!  
​
  • Valuate your company
  • Prepare / Plan for your company to sell (within the next 12-24 months) n -- partially or fully 
​Before you go “on the market”, it is very important to have your overall strategy in place PLUS getting the documents in order that will be necessary during the acquisition process (financials, product reports, organizational charts, etc.). Our experience has shown that not being “ready” can slow down the process for months, but is also the MAIN reason many deals fall apart.  We know what is needed and can work with you 3-12 months in advance so that you are well positioned to maximizing your company’s value and getting a deal done.  
  • ​Provide a “target” research report  (a 8-12 week project to identify the best QUALIFIED potential buyer candidates so you can first SEE what the possibilities are). THIS IS A GREAT PLACE FOR YOU TO START IF YOU ARE JUST INITIALLY "CURIOUS" AS TO WHAT THE MARKET IS FOR YOUR SPECIFIC COMPANY/PRODUCTS
  • Represent you throughout the acquisition process (identifying QUALIFIED buyers, making introductions, negotiating the deal to get you highest price AND terms, etc.) to ensure an efficient process that results in a successful transaction.  MOST IMPORTANTLY -- we help you get WHATEVER it is YOU WANT! 
 
BECAUSE WE ARE "DENTAL PEOPLE" AND HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF CONNECTIONS PLUS DECADES OF BUSINESS AND CLINICAL EXPERIENCE, WE CAN REALLY GET THE BEST "MATCH" AND DEAL FOR YOU (PRICE, TERMS, etc.). 

HERE ARE 3 SCENARIOS AS EXAMPLES WHICH ARE BASED ON RECENT TRANSACTIONS WE WERE INVOLVED WITH.  LOOK AT WHAT WE WERE ABLE TO GET FOR COMPANY SELLERS!!! 

1.  Company was doing $4MM a year in revenue -- owner wanted $5MM to sell -- Connect the Dents was able to get $6MM! 
2.  Dental Manufacturer selling to another Dental Manufacturer -- company owner wanted $15MM -- Connect the Dents was able to get $22MM -- $7MM more than was expected!!! 
3.  Dental instruments company -- EBITDA of $500k -- Connect the Dents was able to get $5.5MM for owner -- 11x multiple!

“INTERMEDIARY” SERVICES — in certain scenarios/circumstances (an example would be a BUYER and SELLER already “know one another”), CTD can be the “intermediary” to work with both sides to move the process along and ensure that the deal is fair and beneficial to each company.
