Why C2G

An advantage at every stage of the acquisition.

Successful buyers don't just find good companies — they find the right companies, at the right price, with the right deal structure. Here's how we help.

Off-market deal flow

Our network of operators across all three verticals gives our buy-side clients access to opportunities that never hit the open market — often before owners have even decided to sell.

Disciplined valuation

We help buyers underwrite with the same rigor we apply to sell-side mandates — transparent multiples, defensible adjustments, and a clear view of which assumptions actually drive the deal.

Closing with confidence

From LOI through diligence and negotiation, we sit alongside our buy-side clients to anticipate seller behavior, surface risks early, and protect the economics of the deal you signed up for.

The Buy-Side Process

A proven path from thesis to close.

Every buy-side engagement is structured around five core phases — adjusted to your strategy, your industry, and your timeline.

01

Strategy & Criteria

Align on your acquisition thesis, target profile, geography, deal size, and integration approach.

02

Sourcing & Outreach

We identify and quietly approach matching targets — including off-market sellers in our network.

03

Evaluation & LOI

Review financials, KPIs, and operations to short-list candidates and structure a competitive LOI.

04

Diligence & Negotiation

Hands-on support through quality of earnings, contract review, working capital, and final terms.

05

Close & Transition

Coordinate signing, funding, and the handoff between seller, buyer, and operating team.

What We Deliver

A full-service buy-side toolkit.

Whether you need an end-to-end engagement or targeted support on a specific deal, we plug in where we add the most value.

Capability 01

Acquisition Thesis Development

Translate strategic goals into a clear set of target criteria — sector, geography, size, growth profile, integration complexity.

Capability 02

Target Identification & Sourcing

Build a curated list of candidates from our proprietary network and outbound research, prioritized by fit and likelihood to transact.

Capability 03

Confidential Outreach

Discreet conversations with potential sellers, framed around their goals — not yours — to build trust before any details are shared.

Capability 04

Valuation & Underwriting

Comparable-company analysis, EBITDA adjustments, and a defensible range to inform your offer — not just rubber-stamp it.

Capability 05

LOI & Negotiation Support

Structure offers that get accepted, navigate counter-offers without losing leverage, and keep deals on track when emotions run high.

Capability 06

Diligence & Closing

Coordinate financial, operational, and contract diligence — plus integration planning — through to signing and funding.
