Operating procedures

 

1. Obtain buyer information and registration

 

• Collect and register basic information of potential buyers (name, contact information, company or background).

• Buyers are required to fill out and sign a Buyer Registration Form to confirm their genuine intention to purchase the company.

• Evaluating the buyer:

  • Sources of funding and financial capacity;

  • Industry background and experience;

  • Does the buyer have a reasonable purchase motivation and a track record of past transactions?

​

2. Arrange initial contact (without disclosing core information)

​

• Arrange for a buyer:

  • Go to the agent's office;

  • Alternatively, an initial meeting may be arranged at a location outside the company.

• Note: Before signing the NDA, it is strictly forbidden to disclose sensitive information such as company name, financial data, and customer information.

​

3. Sign a confidentiality agreement (NDA).

​

• A confidentiality agreement must be signed before any form of business information is shown to buyers.

• The agreement should clearly define the buyer's obligations, including:

  • Information must not be disclosed to third parties;

  • You must not contact the seller's employees, customers, or suppliers directly;

  • Violation of these terms will result in legal liability.

​

4. Briefly introduce the company overview.

​

• After the confidentiality agreement is signed, provide the buyer with a brief overview of the company, either verbally or on-site:

  • A Company Profile/MOI can be provided for introduction;

  • No electronic copies or physical documents will be provided;

  • The content should include business model, industry position, financial summary, market opportunities and growth potential.

​

5. Site visit arrangements

​

• If the buyer shows genuine interest, an on-site visit to the company can be arranged.

• The following regulations must be observed during the inspection:

  • Accompanied by an agent;

  • Restrict access to information by employees;

  • The purpose of this inspection must not be disclosed to the public;

  • If the business is sensitive, visits can be arranged during off-peak hours or on rest days.

​

6. Inquire about the buyer's intentions.

​

• After the on-site inspection, a preliminary conversation should be held directly with the buyer to understand their purchasing intentions:

   

  Does this company meet your acquisition criteria?
  Is this price within your acceptable range?

• If the buyer has a clear interest, they can be guided further into the formal transaction stage.

​

7. Provide a complete information memorandum (MOI/Profile)

​

• A complete copy of the company's information will only be formally provided after the buyer has confirmed their explicit intent.

  • This includes comprehensive financial statements, lease documents, employee structure, customer information, etc.

  • Accessible via a restricted data room or on-site viewing;

  • It is recommended to set viewing time limits and document watermarks to prevent data leakage.

​

8. Facilitate the signing of transaction agreements.

​

• Guide and assist buyers in completing the following key legal documents:

  • Letter of Intent (Heads of Agreement)

  • Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

  • Formal Purchase Agreement (Sale of Business Agreement)

• Coordinate the involvement of the buyer's legal counsel and financial advisor in the review process;

• If necessary, arrange meetings between the two parties to assist in negotiating the details of the terms.
