Mergers and Acquisitions Archives

Selling your business can be a significant milestone for any entrepreneur or business owner. However, when navigating the process of selling your business in California, it is crucial to be aware of the legal considerations involved. This blog article provides a review of some of the key legal aspects to consider when selling your business in California.

1. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs):

Before sharing confidential information (i.e. trade secrets, proprietary processes, customer lists, etc.) about your business with potential buyers, it is vital to have them sign a well-drafted Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). A well-drafted NDA protects your business value by clarifying the handling of confidential information and remedies for breaching the NDA.

2. Valuation and Due Diligence:

Having a supportable rationale for the value of your business is essential for a successful sale. Working with experienced professionals, such as valuation firms, bankers, brokers or appraisers, can help establish a fair market value or a range of fair market value. Additionally, conducting thorough due diligence, including financial audits and legal reviews, is crucial to uncover any potential liabilities or legal issues that could affect valuation and ultimately, the sale.

3. Asset Purchase Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement

In California, the sale of a business can be structured as an asset purchase or stock purchase. Each option has different legal implications. An asset purchase agreement (APA) involves selling specific assets and liabilities of the business, while a stock purchase agreement (SPA) involves selling the ownership shares of the business entity. Consult with your attorney, CPA and other advisors to evaluate potential tax consequences, liability transfers, and legal obligations associated with each structure.

4. Intellectual Property Rights:

Ensure that your business’s intellectual property (IP) rights, such as trademarks, copyrights, and patents, are protected during the sale process. Conduct a comprehensive IP audit on the front end to identify all protectable (and potentially protectable) IP, and to address any potential infringement issues, pending litigation, or license agreements that could impact valuation and sale.

5. Employees and Contractual Obligations:

Review and address any existing employment agreements, non-compete agreements, vendor contracts, or lease agreements that may affect the sale. Analyzing compliance with state and federal employment laws, including providing appropriate notice to employees, and addressing potential severance, bonuses owed, wage and hour liabilities or retention agreements is crucial.

Conclusion:

Selling your business in California can be a wonderful, rewarding milestone on your entrepreneurial journey and it involves navigating numerous, serious legal considerations. From protecting confidential information with NDAs to structuring the sale agreement and addressing employment obligations, understanding the legal aspects is vital for a successful transaction. Seeking guidance the experienced mergers and acquisitions business attorneys at Adishian Law can increase the probability of maximizing the value of your business while minimizing the risk. By carefully addressing these legal considerations, and many others that may arise, you can proceed with confidence and achieve a successful outcome in selling your business in California.

Healthcare Transaction Overview: In another sale transaction involving a leading California healthcare provider, our firm served as exclusive sell-side legal counsel to the Owner of South Bay Hearing and Balance Center. We also served as counsel to the Buyer at the request of, and with the written consent of, both the Buyer and Seller.

Quotes from the Healthcare practice Seller and Buyer:

“I worked with Chris on some employment matters and lease negotiations prior to beginning the process to sell my company. He was always efficient, reliable and most of all, insightful. When it came time to sell my business I immediately turned to Chris for support and counsel. I appreciate Chris’ flexibility and honesty in representing the issues to us. Thank you, Chris, for all that you have done for us.”
— Former Owner & President, South Bay Hearing and Balance Center, Inc.

“Chris and his team modeled professionalism and expertise throughout the transaction. Ours was a unique situation that Chris handled with the utmost proficiency and personal care. As a result, all of us at South Bay Hearing are able to continue our legacy of providing the best hearing care available in Southern California to all of our many wonderful patients. A big thank you to Chris and his team for their personalized approach that made this possible.”
— New Owner & CEO, South Bay Hearing and Balance Center, Inc.

Legacy. With many sales of privately held businesses, “legacy” is often a leading consideration for the selling Owner. This is especially true with healthcare practices. A business often represents the Seller’s professional life’s work. Therefore, Sellers often want to sell to a Buyer who (a) shares their same values and (b) will continue to conduct the business to the same standards they have established. In the public sphere it has been noted that many top performing privately held businesses feel comfortable selling to Berkshire Hathaway because they feel confident that the business will be well run long after the Seller has passed.

How did the pandemic impact your business?

“2020 was a time of forced change and reflection.

Tell us about some recent client success stories.

“This year we closed our largest mergers and acquisitions transaction to date: a health care deal at a near $180 million enterprise value. It was complex, with private equity and two national law firms. For another client, we served as borrower’s counsel on a $6 million term loan under the Federal Reserve’s Main Street Lending Program. We also recently represented a serial entrepreneur in the sale of his ownership interest to his partner.”

What is the most valuable skill you offer clients?

What can our readers learn from your most successful clients?

“They are committed to improving their decision-making process in business and life. They understand that the two great equalizers are time and decisions. Over time, the compounded results from a good decision process (and avoiding the compounded result of a bad decision process) dwarf any legal fees. Quite often, the best decision is deciding to not do something.”

We served as Borrower’s counsel on a $6,000,000 Main Street Loan under the Federal Reserve’s Main Street Lending Program.

Area of Law: Business

ALG Represented: Borrower

Transaction Type: Main Street Loan – $6,000,000, Five-year term loan

Year: 2020

Transaction Overview: Main Street Loans v. PPP: The Federal Reserve established the Main Street Lending Program (MSLP) to support lending to small and medium-sized for profit businesses and nonprofit organizations that were in sound financial condition before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Program terminated on January 8, 2021.

While, the MSLP (aka Main Street Loan) was never as widely known as the PPP (Paycheck Protection Program) it served a critical and different role — shoring up the capital base for previously profitable, financial sound businesses that suffered due to the pandemic. A simple, although not complete, way to compare the two programs is that PPP was designed to avoid massive layoffs by providing eligible enterprises money to pay salaries and retain employees. PPP money was to be received and spent within a relatively brief amount of time. Main Street Loans, on the other hand, were intended to shore up the capital base of eligible firms by making five-year loans to eligible businesses on favorable terms at a critical time when loans were scarce. Main Street Loans were fully collateralized by the business’ assets, personal guaranties from the owners and the owners’ assets.

Documents and Work. On behalf of our client, our firm led the legal work on the transaction from initial documents through Closing. This transaction involved the following documents: Credit Agreement, Term Note, Security Agreement, Pledge Agreement, Owner Guaranties, Deeds of Trust and certain MSLP specific documents along with other ancillary agreements.

Commentary.
A Distributed Transaction and Parties. In today’s legal practice, it is common for us to see parties spread out across several states. Here, the commercial bank lender was in North Carolina, their attorneys were in Minnesota, the Federal Reserve Bank was in Boston and our client is here in California. Over the last few years we are seeing more and more transactions with participants located outside of California who are eager to access the California market either by providing financing or acquiring.

Entrepreneuring is not for the faint of heart. There is a common anecdote that if most entrepreneurs knew at the outset what they would have had to go through to build and sell their business, many of them would have said, “No, thanks!” Creative problem solving, honesty, persistence, flexibility, prudent risk taking, faith and yes luck are just some of what you need to make it….everyday, every week and every year. We also think it helps to have a good law firm along the journey.

Roots in Banking. This financing transaction offered Chris, a former collegiate extern at the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank and at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, the opportunity to represent the client in a transaction sponsored by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve and administered through the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston via designated commercial bank lenders.

Client Update: Since the transaction closed in late 2020, the client’s business has rebounded sharply with the rise in vaccination rates and the return of economic activity. Less than two years into the loan term, the client has repaid half of the principal balance.
