How are deals done Internally?  PERPETUATION

• This was a very typical way to transfer equity interest in an agency from one generation to the next.  

• Was very common for many years and often had the support of insurance carrier lending facilities.

• With the rise in values, it is often more challenging and subsequently more uncommon these days.

Perpetuation Basics

• Successfully transferring equity from one generation to the next is very difficult for the following reasons:– It’s a Leverage Buyout and over 75% of LBOs fail– No cost savings (cross sell, systems, redundancies, etc.)

– Leadership transition

Perpetuation Reality• Abundance of examples of failed perpetuations.  (Company Lending Experience)

• Different recipes for each failure recipe, but a common ingredient in most is failure to understand risks ahead of time.

• If the team isn’t feeling pressure, they are not prepared for the deal.  (Kite Example)

Questions to Plan• Will it be a stock deal or asset deal?

• What percentage needs to be purchased?

• Can funds be borrowed?

• What will the terms of the note be? (interest rate and duration)

• What has to happen in order to pay off the debt?

Good Ideas?• Plan on spending part of existing sales/development time in 

order to manage the agency.

• Give a pay raise to new owners to ease the pressure of the deal.

• Hire 3 new producers to help grow the agency.

• Upgrade office space to improve the image of the Firm.

• Plan to work harder, sell more with existing resources and be prepared to take a pay cut to make loan payments.

3 Basic Scenarios• Scenario #1: Two agency principles who control 60% of the stock wish to be bought out by remaining stockholders.

• Scenario #2: Husband & Wife who own 80% of agency wish to sell to 2 sons and daughter who currently own the other 20%.

• Scenario #3:  2 non‐owner producers have been asked to purchase the 100% owner of the agency.

Example Assumptions• Only 100% scenario offers the ability to do an “Asset 

Purchase”, other two scenarios need to be a “Stock Purchase”.

• No price difference between stock and purchase. 

• If buyers can produce 10% up front, a lending group will loan at 9.5% for 7 years.

• The agency has adequate working capital and a decent operating system when deal is completed.
