Our team puts together a wide-ranging marketing plan, leveraging our extensive operating expertise and knowledge of the education sector. We prepare a series of approved marketing documents and data room to be shared with prospective buyers. This includes the preparation and approval of a Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM) and Teaser Doc to market the school to potential buyers.

We utilize proven marketing strategies and global reach to present the school to the right buyers from our list, from direct contact with targeted companies, networking with other professionals, online advertising, social media, email campaigns, and more.

Based on the profile analysis and suitability, EduMany completes an in-depth study of transactions (merger, sale, divestiture) in India and internationally and shortlisted profiles of potential buyers. EduMany will research and contact pre-screened buyers to determine their level of interest.

Buyers list includes corporate buyers seeking platforms or add-on acquisitions, high net-worth individuals, private equity firms, family offices, and other qualified investors interested in acquiring private schools.

We know how to position the school in the best light possible to enhance its value. We will draw upon multiple buyers through our numerous channels to create a competitive purchasing environment for the school.

The process includes EduMany contacting prospective buyers regarding interest in the school's profile, making introductions, and facilitating the exchange of associated documentation. EduMany will post high-level, anonymized information regarding the school on high traffic websites and EduMany's online newsletter to EduMany's database of buyers.

If a buyer indicates interest, EduMany provides a confidentiaity agreement (NDA) to execute. Subsequently providing the CIM and related information for them to make an informed decision. Only interested parties receive access to the CIM after signing an NDA. The seller will be porvided a digital copy of the executed NDA and bio for each buyer.

Before submitting LOI's, interested parties may wish to tour the school to see it in action and have a conference call with ownership.

EduMany will coordinate responses to due diligence queries from buyers. EduMany updates you on all related activities weekly. EduMany will continually provide due diligence support and facilitate the exchange of information as part of the pre-offer due.

As feasible, EduMany will schedule onsite meetings with the buyers and the seller at the school within a short time frame.

After pre-offer due diligence, interested parties will present their official offer in the form of a Letter of Intent ("LOI"), and the negotiations commence. EduMany will advise the seller of prospective buyer activity and recommend moving forward with a shortlist of the top finalist candidate buyer(s) and the final selection. Within the process, the buyer will provide proof of funds.

During the due diligence process, the buyer will request, among other items, staffing, contracts, accreditation, facilities, IT, legal, tax returns, financial statements (audited, if available), and other financial reports regarding accounts receivable, expenses, revenue-generating contracts, cash assets and indebtedness of the target.

We are focused on optimizing the deal terms, direct due diligence, and assist your professional team with closing the deal. The due diligence process will take anywhere from 30 to 60 days, depending on the complexity of the transaction and regulatory requirements. Our job is to make the process as painless as possible.

During the LOI due diligence stage (leading up to the definitive purchase agreement), EduMany will provide information and documentation to and otherwise support the seller and their professional advisors, as required during the process leading to the completion of the transaction. This includes coordination with the seller's "team" of professional advisors, such as legal advisors, accountants, and others, as required by the seller.

The definitive purchase agreement may be in the form of an 'asset' purchase or 'share' purchase (depending on the deal structure and regulatory requirements).

Once the legal agreements are signed, and accreditation is dealt with, and the transaction closes, a PR plan will be put into place to update the community of the school's change in ownership.
