Hi All,

I’m looking to connect with entrepreneurs, bankers, or lawyers who have experience with acquiring small public companies. Specifically, I’m trying to understand the feasibility of structuring a buyout via a debt-financed tender offer.

If you have experience with this or can point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate your insights.

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

One of my accounting professors was into microcap investing. Years ago, he bough a large stake in a very small publicly traded company and got a phone call from the CEO who was worried about it being a takeover attempt. He was relieved to find out my professor just believed the numbers supported a higher valuation than reflected by the stock price
