Hello everybody,
I stand vor a decision and I want to ask you what you think.

I have the change to buy 2 small businesses to my "main business". In the private equity speech "addon on transaction".

The first business will add an EBIT of 3 % of the full revenue of the main business. The second business 5-7 %.
My consideration is: is it useful to buy this 2 small targets? Or should I wait for a bigger one?

Every transaction costs time und humanpower. A small transaction like a big transaction, too.

A am unsure and think, I should buy targets with min. 15 - 25 additional EBIT of the revenue of the main company, instead of so small company like 3 oder 5-7 %.
