Cook M&A is recognized as one of the leading buy side M&A advisory firms in the industry. Our M&A advisory team delivers transaction focused strategic advice to corporations, private equity funds, and executives in buy side transactions. We work with businesses across all industry sectors and sizes to understand the market, identify potential acquisition targets, assist in due diligence and resolve transaction issues throughout the process. Whether your business is investigating a platform or add-on acquisition, our research driven methodology has been proven to execute the best deals.Sourcing deals through investment banking auctions is both inefficient and unsatisfying. We look for companies that create the right fit, rather than "just what's on the market".We have developed proprietary tools, including FocusFirst® and CEOVisions®, to source proprietary deals that meet your investment goals.FocusFirst® is a strategic process through which we align a search process with the buyer's investment goals to identify and develop prospective acquisition targets. CEOVisions® is a strategic process through which we partner with exceptional executives who have an investment thesis with private equity backing to acquire industry leading companies.Our company culture is characterized by transparency, flexibility and personal relationships, which has resulted in over 120 successful transactions, with enterprise values ranging from $5-800 million.
