Seastone provides research, buyer preparation, and business sourcing services. Seastone is not a registered broker-dealer, licensed business broker, M&A advisor, investment adviser, lender, attorney, or accountant, and does not act in any of these capacities.
Seastone’s role ends at the introduction. Once a buyer is in discussion with a business owner, all further steps are the sole responsibility of the buyer and their own licensed advisors. These include confidentiality agreements, valuation, offers, letters of intent, negotiation, due diligence, deal structuring, financing and closing. Seastone does not value businesses, negotiate terms, structure transactions, or represent either the buyer or the seller in any transaction.
Information provided by Seastone, including market data, company profiles, revenue estimates and risk indicators, is compiled from public sources and modeled estimates. It is not a substitute for independent due diligence. Documents Seastone prepares, including SBA forms, are based solely on information supplied by the client, who is responsible for reviewing their accuracy before signing or submitting them. Introductions to lenders, attorneys, accountants or other service providers are made as a courtesy and are not an endorsement or a guarantee of financing or outcomes.
Timelines shown are typical and not guaranteed. Seastone does not guarantee that any introduction will result in a transaction. Nothing on this website is legal, tax, financial or investment advice.
