Corporate Profile Acquisition Criteria

The business should meet the following specifications:

Market position
Business should be a manufacturer, industrial distributor, or service company with a product, process, or service that is technologically advanced and internationally competitive. Acquisition targets should be leaders within their niche market.

Profitability
Koch Enterprises is looking to acquire a well-run, profitable company.  We measure value at the gross margin level. EBIT of at least $1,000,000. We will consider acquisitions of companies with sales volumes that range up to $75 million per year.

Koch Enterprises would be 100 percent owner. We are a cash buyer.

Growth Potential

• Companies in their growth periods with strong operating management.
• Companies not dependent on the US auto companies.
• Industries that will support sustainable organic growth, where future growth is driven by steady demand that is not subject to fluctuations of fads.

Management
We look for strong, highly motivated entrepreneurial management teams. Present management would continue to operate the business with a strong incentive program.

We prefer main locations to be in the midwest.
