Regalis Capital posts 39 deal outcomes and 5 video testimonials for buyers

Regalis Capital has published 39 anonymized client deal outcomes and 5 video testimonials on its reviews page at regaliscapital.com/reviews. The move gives SBA 7(a) business buyers a public look at price, financing and seller note terms across real transactions.

Why it matters: - Buyers shopping for an acquisition advisor usually see marketing claims, not deal data. - Regalis Capital is trying to show what its process has produced in real SBA 7(a) acquisitions. - The published examples may help buyers compare financing structure, seller note terms and cash flow before hiring an advisor.

What happened: - Regalis Capital published 39 client deal outcomes and 5 client video testimonials on its reviews page at More information. - The table includes 8 closed deals and 31 deals under contract. - Every client and acquired company is anonymized. - The page shows deal structures negotiated for SBA 7(a) business buyers.

The details: - The sample is not a complete history of the firm's closings. - Purchase prices in the table range from $515,000 to $6.5 million. - Reported seller's discretionary earnings range from $269,000 to $1.8 million a year. - An SEO agency was bought for $1.2 million with a $900,000 SBA 7(a) loan and a $180,000 seller note over 10 years. - A kitchen and bathroom remodeling firm sold for $2.2 million with a $1.68 million loan and a $300,000 seller note. - A management consulting firm sold for $2.4 million with a $1.88 million loan and a $400,000 seller note on 10-year standby. - A roofing company sold for $1.25 million with a $437,000 seller note on standby. - An HVAC business at $3 million was structured with a loan at 70% of the price and a seller note at 25% on full standby. - An auto repair shop at $2.4 million carried a $600,000 seller note. - An accounting firm at $515,000 carried a $77,000 seller note. - Every one of the 39 published outcomes includes a seller note. - The seller note is the part of the structure many first-time buyers get wrong. - Regalis Capital says the page lets buyers review the numbers before deciding whether to talk to the firm. - The company also links free buyer guides at the free buyer guides.

Between the lines: - The published deals are aimed at buyers who want recession-resistant businesses and businesses that are already performing well. - BizBuySell's Insight Report for the second quarter of this year, reported by Small Business Trends, found 86% of buyers looking for a recession resistant business and 64% wanting one that is already doing well. - About a third of the published businesses are 20 or more years old. - Several already have a general manager or operations manager running day-to-day work. - Nearly every deal includes working capital negotiated into the purchase. - The public table also acts as proof-of-work for an acquisition advisor in a market where buyers often have to judge expertise from claims alone.

What's next: - Regalis Capital says the 5 client video testimonials on the same page are individual buyer experiences. - The firm says results depend on the buyer, the business, the lender and the market. - Regalis Capital says no outcome is promised or typical. - The company is not a lender and does not make loans, set rates or approve financing. - Loan approval remains with the lender and the SBA. - Regalis Capital says its broader pipeline includes over $300 million under contract and closing and more than 200 active buyers.

The bottom line: - Regalis Capital is using public deal data to sell transparency, not just advisory services. - For SBA 7(a) buyers, the reviews page doubles as a real-world look at how these acquisitions are being structured.
