DAY NURSERY SALES
M&A advisory services
for day nursery owners
WHY ECLIPSE?
-
Our team has significant experience working on the buy-side for corporates across the healthcare and education sectors, giving us a unique insight into how corporate acquirers approach transactions, including:
-
a deep understanding of the current market and how to correctly present your business to maximise value
-
the ability to model and value your business accurately, in addition to pre-empting diligence issues and avoiding common pitfalls when selling to corporates
-
-
We are not a high volume firm - this allows us to spend more time producing higher quality, tailored marketing materials and provide a greater level of support throughout the sale process
-
Our experience advising on varied and complex deals of up to £100m gives us significant expertise in running smooth and efficient processes, ensuring that value is protected through to completion of the transaction
-
We protect confidentiality - all of our deals are delivered "off-market", identifying buyers through market research rather than online listings or email marketing lists
-
Our fees are transparent and directly linked to the valuation achieved
OVERVIEW
The UK day nurseries sector continues to see significant consolidation, driven by a number of private equity-backed operators deploying buy-and-build strategies. We expect transaction volumes to continue this year, with the larger operators focusing on the acquisition of high-quality individual nurseries and groups.
If you are considering selling your day nursery business, the Eclipse team can support you in maximising value whilst delivering a smooth and efficient process.
As chartered accountants with significant investment banking experience, we differentiate ourselves from other advisors by taking a hands on, end-to-end approach to ensure the optimum outcome for our clients.

VALUATION
When considering the sale of your nursery or group, it's important to obtain a clear understanding of its market value which can be influenced by a number of factors. Our guide to the factors influencing valuation in the sector can be found using the following link.
As a team of chartered accountants, we take a granular view on valuation, analysing the ways in which performance can be presented to achieve the optimum price.
If your business generates EBITDA in excess of £500k, we would be happy to produce a complimentary valuation report to support you in exploring your options.
