BUSINESS ACQUISITION
FINANCING.

Buying an existing business means buying proven revenue: customers, contracts, equipment, a team. Acquisition financing helps a buyer put capital behind that purchase — and keep enough working capital left over to run the business properly afterward.

THE PRICE OF PROVEN — AND THE CASH TO KEEP IT GOING.

An established business costs more than a startup precisely because the risk is lower: revenue exists, customers exist, the operation works. Buyers rarely fund that price entirely from cash — and shouldn't have to.

Acquisition financing also has a second job most first-time buyers underweight: funding the operating period after closing, when receivables, payroll and supplier rhythms are still settling into new hands.

What acquisition capital supports

THE PURCHASE — AND THE FIRST MONTHS AFTER.

Purchase of an Operating Business

Capital toward the price of a proven, operating company.

Asset Purchases

Financing equipment, inventory and other assets included in the deal.

Management Buyouts

Capital for a team buying the business it already runs — conceptually the same financing logic.

Post-Acquisition Working Capital

Operating cash for the transition period after closing.

Equipment & Assets in the Deal

The machinery, vehicles and assets that come with the transaction.

Growth After the Deal

Capital to expand what the acquired business already does.

Where professional advice belongs

TRANSACTIONS HAVE LEGAL, TAX AND STRUCTURE QUESTIONS.

Whether a deal is structured as an asset purchase or a share purchase has real legal and tax consequences — and BizFin.ca doesn't provide legal, tax or M&A advice. For transaction-specific matters, involve a lawyer and an accountant early. For the financing side of the purchase, that's the conversation we're here for.
