Where is the Mid-Market?

VR considers mid-market businesses those that have grown beyond single manager entities to significant regional or even national stature. By our definition, this usually implies value between $3 million and $50 million. Most of the mid-market is made up of businesses built around a single product area and its natural extensions; therefore, they are not usually multi-market companies with a group of divisions. This characteristic means the business is a stand-alone unit that does not lend itself to being sold in pieces.

Who Are the Sellers?

Owners of mid-market enterprises are a variety of personas. Generally, these businesses can be categorized as closely held private, family or founder, or as an independent subsidiary or division of a larger organization. Owners of closely held mid-market companies usually have invested completely in the business, both financially and emotionally, and feel that the sale of their company is a very significant event in their lives. This is distinct from the situations in which the corporate officers of a Fortune 500 company dispassionately execute a strategic shift by a redeployment of global resources.  It is important to understand that both types are active participants in today’s mid-market transactions and are dealt with in suitable manners.
