Five Experts AMA: The Union Question, the Pension Liability Nobody Screens For, with Dr. Phillip Hearn
·
Virtual event
Trades and construction services are among the most pursued businesses in search, and a meaningful share are union. Any target that is signatory to a labor agreement carries a contingent multiemployer pension withdrawal liability that doesn't show up on the balance sheet.
Join Dr. Phillip Hearn, founder of Triumph Advisors and sitting CEO of a Midwest electrical contracting and construction services platform, for a live Five Experts AMA on how to find, price and negotiate this risk before you sign an LOI.
We'll cover:
- What withdrawal liability is, and why most buyers never screen for it
- When the construction-industry exemption protects you, and how deal structure can break it
- Why an asset purchase no longer reliably leaves the liability behind
- What to ask the broker before the LOI
- How to turn an unpriced risk into a price concession
Phillip's own platform is union signatory, and he underwrites this exposure on every deal he looks at.
Format: 45 minutes, a brief framing from Phillip, then open questions.
Hosted by Five Experts. General education only, not legal or financial advice. We look forward to seeing you there!
