Building and selling your company are two very different processes.

The team that helped you scale the business may not have all the specialized expertise needed to guide an M&A transaction.

When preparing for a sale, business owners often expand their advisory team to include investment bankers, wealth managers, and experienced M&A counsel—each playing a different role in navigating the transaction and what comes next.

You built the business with the right team. Selling it may require building another one.

What happens when rollover equity in an M&A transaction is not what it appears to be?

In 2023, private equity fund Boathouse Capital acquired cybersecurity company InfoSec Learning, Inc. through a combination of cash, earnouts, and equity in portfolio company ACI Learning Holdings, LLC.

The transaction later became the subject of allegations that ACI misrepresented its financial position to induce InfoSec to accept rollover equity, and that InfoSec’s ownership was subsequently diluted through Boathouse Capital’s continuation fund investment in ACI.

Our latest blog examines the dispute and the key lessons it offers sellers considering rollover equity in an M&A transaction.

SUCCESS STORY:
Four jurisdictions. Multiple time zones. One closing date.

When a client set a target date for a cross-border transaction, the team moved its planning forward to leave room for potential blind spots.
Counsel and brokers across all four jurisdictions stayed in close contact, with weekly updates on what remained, who was responsible, and which new issues needed attention.

That coordination helped the transaction close successfully, even if the final call came at 5:00 a.m. 😅

Being first at the negotiating table can be valuable.
A Right of First Negotiation allows a party to discuss a new deal before the opportunity is opened to others.

For athletes, entertainers, brands, and businesses, understanding these rights can have a significant impact on future partnerships and negotiating flexibility.

In cross-border transactions, what works in one jurisdiction may not work in another.

Whether it’s a sale, acquisition, or debt financing, having experienced advisors on both sides working collaboratively can help identify potential issues, navigate different requirements, and find solutions that move the deal forward.

Interest in cross-border M&A is on the rise, but international opportunities bring added layers of complexity.

From regulatory requirements and due diligence to cultural differences and post-closing integration, businesses need experienced legal counsel to anticipate risks, structure transactions effectively, and protect long-term value.

An acquisition’s value depends on what the business can retain after the deal closes. When expanding internationally, tax assumptions deserve the same scrutiny as revenue projections and the purchase price.

Neil Moda explores this issue in our recent Cross Border Transaction Forum.
