Seller Benefits

J. Devien Capital works continuously to differentiate itself from the typical private investment firm.  We approach our market as an enabler of transitions, bringing together sellers, managers, investors and lenders in a successful liquidity event. 

Our vast network of investors, advisors, and partners positions us to achieve the transition goals of a prospective seller and will allow us to directly address the important legacy issues associated with closely-held private enterprises. 

We also offer a unique value proposition to business owners by providing a financial liquidity event on flexible terms, while maintaining the managerial expertise needed to ensure continual success.

Opportunity:  JDC only purchases companies at a fair market value and are not seeking distressed situations.

Timely Transactions:  We carry out transactions quickly and professionally, and sellers can expect financings to be executed efficiently. Our management team and investors consists of successful entrepreneurs and senior executives that have participated in hundreds of seller-buyer transactions and understand the seller’s unique situations and concerns when it comes to ownership transitions.

Flexible Deal Structure:  JDC is unique in that we provide liquidity to business owners under flexible terms.  We structure our deals to accommodate seller lifestyle and tax planning needs, while taking into account the seller preferences regarding ongoing ownership positions, and/or continued employment.

Continued Venture Success: JDC is committed to the long-term growth of its businesses. We purchase and manage companies with the goal of creating profitable, growing enterprises that emphasize value continuity, stable employee relations, and strong community standing.

Employee Welfare:  Our firm appreciates the strong employee ties that exist when a business has been in a family for generations, and nurtured and supported by its founder(s).   Employees are a company’s most important asset, and we believe that building strong relationships with existing management teams post-acquisition are critical for long-term success. We work tirelessly to cultivate a rapport with the incumbent team and establish common goals early on.  Our primary goal is to ensure a smooth transition and fair treatment of those who have contributed significantly in building the company.

Proven Management:  A key differentiator between JDC and other private investment firms is that the JDC management team will assume senior positions in the companies it acquires.  In terms of management capital, our team exhibits over 35 years of combined executive level management and leadership experience. Moreover, we have the ability to access substantial capital through our investors and banking relationships. For business owners that value a smooth transition of management, JDC openly offers this opportunity.
