Protecting your identity and the sensitive details of your business is a top priority. All advertising is intentionally general, with no names, locations, or identifying operational details. 

Interested buyers only gain access to confidential information after signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and completing our buyer profile, which verifies financial capability, industry experience, and creditworthiness.

Aerospace companies attract a very specific type of buyer. We create targeted, compelling marketing materials that speak directly to these qualified prospects. Your listing is professionally written and promoted across relevant business-for-sale platforms, so it stands out rather than getting lost among generic listings. 

In addition to online visibility, we leverage our database of more than 3,500 buyers and BizBuySell’s extensive network when selling technology-driven companies. These audiences include investors and operators actively seeking aerospace and defense businesses.

These email blasts give your listing meaningful exposure to serious prospects.

We begin with a pre-screening meeting between our team of aerospace business brokers and interested buyers to confirm their qualifications and gauge their interest. 

Once they pass this initial stage, we coordinate a meeting between you, the buyer, and our brokers. This is often via Zoom. However, an in-person meeting is arranged for buyers who want to move forward. 

These meetings are important because they allow both parties to ask important questions about the business sale and reinforce trust between the two parties.

To help buyers fully understand your business, we prepare a detailed CIM tailored to the aerospace sector. This document gives qualified buyers a clear, organized view of your company. 

Our CIM includes:

• Business overview and capabilities 
• Company history and ownership structure 
• Recast financial statements 
• Staff overview (with names confidential)
• Equipment list and assets 
• SBA financing structure
• SBA lender pre-approval letter

Our team of aerospace business brokers understands that this document plays a key role in a prospective buyer’s decision to submit an offer.

We prepare offers using the California Association of Business Brokers (CABB) Asset Purchase Agreements or Stock Purchase Agreements, depending on your transaction. 

While an Asset Sale is more common, some aerospace companies, especially those with government contracts, benefit from a Stock Sale. This allows the corporate EIN and key contracts to remain intact. See our page on Stock vs. Asset Sales for more information. 

Secure Delivery 

We offer our experience as aerospace business brokers to help the buyer structure the offer. Next, it is securely delivered electronically to the seller. Once signed, we review the terms with you, explain the details, and prepare counteroffers as needed to ensure the agreement meets your goals. 

In our experience, a Stock Sale can be crucial for you since, in some circumstances, it is required if the company has government contracts. The buyer purchases the corporation via a stock sale, and the corporate EIN and most essential contracts associated with the corporate entity stay intact.

We work with the buyer to develop the offer, which we then deliver for signature electronically. When the buyer signs the offer, we go through it with you, explain the contents, and prepare a counteroffer if necessary.

Due diligence is a critical step when you sell your aerospace business. This is where buyers and their advisors review your company’s tax filings, profit and loss statements, bank records, and operational data to confirm financial and operational accuracy. 

Our team of aerospace business brokers facilitates the process by helping you prepare for due diligence and the buyer to keep within timelines. 

Escrow opens once due diligence is complete and contingencies are cleared. Our deep experience in aerospace operations, including inventory, work-in-progress, and accounts receivable, helps us maximize your company’s value.

We use SBA financing in over 90% of our transactions. We work exclusively with SBA PLP (Preferred Lender Program) banks, leveraging long-standing relationships and industry expertise to secure financing quickly and reliably. 

The benefits of this are clear for sellers: Most of the purchase price is delivered in cash at closing, often with little to no reliance on a seller note. SBA loans can cover up to 90% of the transaction, including accounts receivable. This leaves you with maximum liquidity while reducing risk. 

We provide a complimentary Market Value Analysis using the same professional valuation software and methodology employed by SBA valuation analysts. 

We also have considerable sales data for all types of manufacturing and aerospace business sales directly from the SBA database. This ensures confidence in your company’s market value and helps secure SBA approval at the price we recommend as your aerospace business brokers.

A key to a successful aerospace business sale is finding buyers who are capable and knowledgeable. They must also be able to close on the deal. Aerospace businesses are in high demand and so generate numerous inquiries. However, only a fraction are qualified to complete a transaction. 

Pacific Business Sales carefully evaluates all prospective buyers for financial capacity and operational experience in the aerospace industry. We do this to match your business with a buyer who will honor your legacy and successfully operate the company.
