RKCA, an investment bank focused on privately-held lower middle market businesses, presents its outlook for the 2025 M&A market. The firm anticipates a strong year driven by significant private equity dry powder and increasing activity from family offices and individual investors. 

While senior lenders are cautious and the cost of capital has risen, "quality" companies with strong financials, documented processes, experienced management, and resilience will command premium valuations. 

RKCA advises business owners considering a sale to begin preparation early, emphasizing that a proactive and well-managed process yields the best results. They offer services to evaluate businesses and guide owners through various transaction scenarios, aiming for client success.
