Comprehensive Business Acquisition Services
If the growth plans for your company include acquisitions, we can assist in your search for the right opportunities. Our services include opportunity analysis, product outreach, initial due diligence, and valuation analysis. We’ll handle the letters of intent, provide deal structure consultation and negotiation, and lead and support all closing activities.
Business Acquisition Services for Strategic Growth
While many people think about business acquisitions in purely financial terms, the truth is finding the right target company is just as much about financial viability as it is about vision, cultural fit, and long-term growth potential.
Our acquisition services take a holistic approach to transactions by:
Identifying the Right Targets
Just because a target company is financially viable doesn’t mean it aligns with your growth strategy and culture. Our business acquisition team takes the time to understand your vision. Then, using your criteria, we tap into our exhaustive network of qualified prospects.
Conducting Due Diligence
Our business acquisition team does not cut corners simply to close the deal. Instead, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of the target company. From financial statements, tax liabilities, and cash flow to intangible assets like intellectual property and company culture, we give you the insights you need to make informed decisions.
Structuring the Deal
When it comes to business acquisition, past success is rarely an indicator of future success. Every deal is unique and requires a customized approach. That’s what we offer—the experience of structuring a deal that protects your interests and maximizes value.
Staying Hands-On
We believe in keeping you informed and in control at every stage of the transaction. However, we also make every effort to minimize distractions that bog business owners down, keeping them from what they do best—run their businesses. We stay hands-on, allowing you to focus on your core responsibilities.

Types of Acquisition Services
True North Mergers & Acquisitions offers three unique acquisition paths, each custom-tailored to meet your needs.
Mergers
Mergers often transform two smaller companies into a larger entity. This approach is advantageous for those who want to streamline operations, improve credit ratings and borrowing capacity, or gain access to new markets. From identifying qualified targets and evaluating fit to ensuring a seamless transaction, our M&A services team will guide you through every stage of the process.
Acquisitions
In many cases, acquired companies continue to operate under their own name while maintaining unique organizational structures. The benefits of a strategic acquisition include the ability to accelerate growth, expand into new markets, and diversify offerings, all while ensuring both entities maintain their unique identities and strengths.
Private Equity and Investment Partnerships
This pathway is advantageous because it gives companies access to financial resources while often retaining operational control. Our private equity acquisition team has built an exhaustive roster of potential investors. We ensure you secure the right partnership—one that meets your growth objectives without compromising your vision or values.
Succession Planning & Exit Strategies
Whether it's time to hand off responsibilities, retire, or sell your business, our team will guide you through the process. From developing a timeline for the transfer of ownership to structuring deals that maximize value while protecting your legacy, we ensure your wishes are carried out, and your company's future is secure.
Finally, An Acquisition Process Designed Around You
Our business acquisition strategy involves helping the acquiring entity target acquisition candidates that meet their criteria, resulting in a lower transaction price, higher value, and better terms — all through our reverse auction process.
True North Mergers & Acquisitions has a track record of securing better deals. If you’re searching for lower to middle-market opportunities between $10 million and $150 million, make us your first call.
