EQUINOX · CORPORATE ADVISORY
Private & by introduction

Off-market origination for the lower middle market.

Equinox identifies acquisition opportunities directly from owners — before a banker or a process is involved — and introduces them to private equity buyers whose criteria they fit.

How it works

Three steps, nothing more.

01

Identify

Direct outreach to owners of privately held businesses that fit a defined acquisition thesis — sourced independently, not from an existing broker list.

02

Introduce

A qualified introduction to the buyer, with enough context to make an informed first read — nothing more, nothing withheld.

03

Step away

No negotiation, valuation, diligence, or financing involvement past the introduction. The parties take it from there.

Currently taking a limited number of dedicated sourcing engagements.
