Evans & Company

Evans & Company provides corporate M&A advisory services for entrepreneurs preparing to exit businesses generating $ 10M to $500M in revenue. Most founders hire an investment bank 12 months before exit. That's too late. By then, you've already left millions on the table in business structuring, tax optimization, and deal positioning. The best exits are planned 18-36 months in advance—not 12 months before. We work with entrepreneurs in the critical window before they go to market: business valuation, buyer identification, deal structuring, negotiation strategy, and post-exit wealth transition coordination. We don't just advise on the transaction. We prepare you for it. Clean financials. Clear growth story. Resolved legal issues. Optimized organizational structure. Documentation that answers buyer questions before they're asked. When you go to market, you're not scrambling. You're executing a plan we built together over 18+ months. Founded by Daniel Evans, a former Bear Stearns investment banker and employee #7 at Bad Boy Entertainment, where he negotiated nine-figure deals for Sean "Diddy" Combs. We've seen deals from multiple perspectives: Wall Street rigor, entrepreneurial operations, and entertainment industry negotiations. That combination gives us pattern recognition most advisors don't have. We serve self-made entrepreneurs in consumer brands (food, beverage, beauty, fitness), technology and SaaS, healthcare and wellness, professional services, and manufacturing and distribution. Revenue:$10M-$500M EBITDA:$2M-$50M Exit timeline: 18-36 months out We don't take every deal. We work with founders who've built something real and want to maximize value without leaving money on the table or getting steamrolled in negotiations. If you're thinking about exit but haven't started preparing, let's talk. Engage us before you hire the investment bank.
