We want to keep your business running for generations to come - We retain all employees and all the values and culture of the company.

Job security and increased retirement benefits are some of the positive extra benefits of our continuity shares program.

Continuity Capital is a group of investors in the continued pursuit of excellence in manufacturing. The Fund will comprise a group of Employee Owned Niche Manufacturing companies who share best practices, know-how, and when appropriate resources. Under Continuity Capital's direct leadership umbrella, the companies share dedicated human resources, finance, accounting, sales, and marketing services.
We believe in continuing great businesses. We retain all employees and give them shares in the company. The Group will meet regularly to discuss best practices and spreads innovations and improvements across all companies. Our involvement allows Manufactures to focus on production and operations as we help them deliver superior value to customers. We invest heavily to ensure all our companies are modernized and are ready to compete and thrive in a digital-first environment. We are in this for the long haul.
We typically look for businesses earning over 500K in EBITDA (SDE) with at least 25 years in business. We value companies based on multiple tax return earnings with addbacks of owner salary normalization and a few discretionary items that will leave with the owner - such as additional insurance. We typically value deals between 2X-4X cash flows. We aren't taking out SBA funding, so we can usually close with up to 80% of the value in cash in 60-90 days.
We pride ourselves on continuity and preservation. Continuing the legacy you have started and preserving the employment of those loyal to your vision. We aren't venture-funded or Wall Street Backed; you know better than anyone that manufacturing is a passion and a dedication, and it's not a way to make a quick buck. We are in this for the long haul because we believe in preserving jobs and American-made inginuity.
Regarding the sale itself, we offer fair valuations and close quickly. We ask that you stay on at least 12-24months to train the new CEO, but you can stay on as a board member as long as you like. After all, we are continuing your vision.
We are first or second-generation Manufactures, and we've built or grown manufacturing businesses and know the common challenges we all face. Recently we have also seen what can happen to employees when a company goes under after an owner retires, steps away, or suddenly passes away. There are plenty of reasons a business can fail - lack of succession shouldn't be one.
Our CEO left a technology startup to take over his family components manufacturing company. Looking around at the employees, he knew if he sold to a competitor or a traditional PE firm, many employees, his friends, would lose their livelihoods. Continuing a thriving business is a great honor - having the opportunity to grow it to new heights is our passion.
Our excellent customer support team is ready to help.
