Business broker’s summary
From a technical point of view, the company has a strong position on the market thanks to its unique know-how. Every year, the company carries out several big projects, which often cause instability in the company’s cash-flow. This instability is being eliminated by adding and promoting the sale of individual products (in order to bridge the periods during which the project is being delivered). For this change, however, it will need to add funding to complete the development of products and staff and therefore seeks a partner who will be able to finance this development and product marketing or provide additional financial needs for the company in the future.
