The market

Why buyers are active

The baby boomer generation needs more care every year, with Generation X close behind, and most people want to grow old and be cared for at home.

That demand keeps publicly traded strategic acquirers, private-equity-backed strategics and private equity groups active in the sector.

Deal considerations

What we navigate

Change of ownership, planned early

Change-of-ownership filings go out before closing, following each state’s requirements, so the transaction is not delayed and operations continue without interruption.

Experience

Preparing for a sale

What to do 12 to 24 months ahead

An early conversation costs nothing and often adds value at sale. See how a sale process works →

  1. Log and track add-backs and adjustments to earnings as they happen, not when a buyer asks.
  2. Talk to a financial planner or wealth manager about tax planning well before a sale.
  3. Keep your foot on the gas. Sustained profitability through the process protects value.
  4. Get organized: corporate documents, payer contracts, employee contracts, insurance policies and vendor agreements.

Considering a transaction?

A confidential conversation with a senior banker is the best place to start.
