@Attorney_CPA @Eli_Albrecht Having worked at Tier 1 and 2 IBs and now doing my own PE deals. I'm quite familiar with LOI terms and structures. I can't say I've ever seen a 2 year exclusivity and definitely not standard. I would love to know what seller is signing those.

@JayDFreeman @Eli_Albrecht A fairly standard initial draft of the LOI includes a 2-year exclusivity period. Having an exclusivity period in an LOI is not normally negotiable, but the duration is normally negotiable.

Yesterday, we had a deal die because the seller was promised a value, the deal was marketed with fluffed-up financials, when the QoE and valuation came back, the biz is worth 50% of the initial offer. Seller is stuck on the initial valuation he was promised and rigid on price.

@Eli_Albrecht Top reasons deals die: Sellers who aren’t actually interested in selling or have no idea what their company is worth. Buyers who give a teaser deal price knowing they will find a way to reduce it by 30% or drag it out a 2 year exclusivity period hoping the seller gives in.

@Eli_Albrecht If you're investor is a fund capable or comfortable with having control then they'll squeeze you for more of the fee. Compelling passive lp like a family office type. They'll be more friendly. Also track record.

@Eli_Albrecht It's all about value that you create and investor type. If you're a guy just putting together deals you're gonna get squeezed. If you're a true value creator and subject/operating expert you're more valued.

I spoke to two independent sponsors today. One is nervous to charge a typical 5.5% of EBITDA management fee, and the other charges 10% of EBITDA ($10M EBITDA platforms) and never gets pushback from investors. Strange segment of the market.

AI runs my content strategy now. Built a system that watches industry news every hour, filters junk articles, and auto-generates Twitter threads plus LinkedIn posts. AI scores each piece for quality before writing anything. High scores get published automatically. Medium scores hit my review queue. Garbage gets archived. Never scrambling for post ideas at 11pm anymore. Comment "NEWS" and I'll DM it to you (must be following)

I’ve admired this paper and this newsroom for as long as I can remember. I am honored to join Emma’s leadership team at one of the most exciting moments in @WSJ history. Let’s do this.
WSJ Communications@WSJPR

.@WSJ Editor in Chief Emma Tucker announced three key leadership appointments to the Journal newsroom. Aja Whitaker-Moore (@Ajawmoore) and David Crow (@bydavidcrow) were announced as deputy editors in chief, and Dan Colarusso as coverage chief for Business, Finance and Economics. Whitaker-Moore joins from Axios, where she was editor in chief overseeing its National, Local and Pro newsrooms. Crow, who joined the Journal as executive editor in 2023, has played a vital role in managing news, features and storytelling across WSJ platforms. Colarusso was previously at CNBC as senior vice president of business news and oversaw television news content, coverage and production for CNBC’s Business Day programming. Congratulations to all!

@PseudonymBear We are doing a mid 8 figures EBITDA deal as an independent sponsor and can confirm that the tight rope you have to walk in terms of progressing the deal to LOI, funding DD out of pocket, and lining up capital is incredibly difficult.

Deal by deal private equity (aka Independent Sponsor) is NOT for the faint of heart. Here’s a breakdown on what it looks w/real data from our active process for a ~$20MM deal. BUCKLE UP for: getting told “NO” ~100 times and watching your network EVAPORATE…oh and while that’s happening, you’re accruing diligence fees ($10k -> $50k -> $100k++) and just praying you can keep it all together. 🧵👇
