Simple fees.
No surprises.
2% of enterprise value, capped at US$300,000. You pay nothing unless a deal completes.
One fee. Success only.
2% of enterprise value, capped at US$300,000. Success fee only — no retainers, no monthly fees, no expense recharges. You pay nothing unless a deal completes. Third-party costs such as legal, accounting, tax, and data room are engaged directly by you and are never marked up.
Lyndon vs traditional advisory.
The same structured, competitive sale process — at a fraction of the cost, in less time, and with nothing to fund along the way. The US$300,000 cap means the effective rate falls well below 2% on larger transactions.
| Traditional advisory | Lyndon Advisory | |
|---|---|---|
| Success fee | 3–6% for SME deals | 2% success fee capped at US$300,000 |
| Time to close | 6–8 months | 5–7 months · senior-led |
| Retainers & monthly fees | US$5K–25K per month | None |
| Expenses | Recharged to the client | None — never recharged |
Traditional advisory figures are indicative of typical lower-mid-market M&A engagements at leading banks and boutiques.
What the cap means in practice.
The headline fee is 2%, but the US$300,000 cap changes the economics for larger businesses. These examples show the maximum Lyndon Advisory fee at common lower-mid-market transaction sizes.
Why our fees are lower.
Lower fees do not mean a lesser process. They reflect a genuinely different operating model — one built around senior-led execution, structured buyer research, and reusable deal infrastructure, without the overhead that inflates traditional advisory costs.
Structured execution
We combine senior judgment, structured buyer research, and repeatable deal workflows to move quickly without staffing your mandate like a large bank.
No overhead bloat
Traditional firms charge for large teams, office space, and junior analysts learning on your deal. Lyndon Advisory is lean and senior-led — you pay for expertise, not headcount.
Same quality, better economics
Lower fees do not mean lower quality. You get the same structured, competitive sale process — buyer mapping, blind teasers, managed outreach, negotiation — run by senior dealmakers.
Everything included.
One fee covers the entire process — from first conversation to closing. No line-item billing, no scope creep, no surprises.
Common questions.
Straightforward answers on how our fees work, what enterprise value means, and what you can expect to pay.
When do I pay?
Only when your deal closes. There are no retainers, monthly charges, or upfront fees. If we don't close your deal, you don't pay us.
What is enterprise value?
Enterprise value is the total value of your business, including equity and debt. It is the standard basis for M&A advisory fees worldwide. We will explain exactly how it applies to your deal before you engage.
Are there any additional costs?
No hidden costs. Third-party expenses such as legal counsel, accounting, and data room providers are separate and engaged by you directly — not marked up by us.
How can you charge less than traditional firms?
We run a lean, senior-led process supported by structured buyer research, reusable deal infrastructure, and disciplined outreach tracking. This lets us deliver institutional execution without traditional overhead.
Do lower fees mean lower quality?
No. Every engagement is led by senior M&A professionals with decades of experience at leading banks and advisory firms. You get the same structured, competitive process — at a price that reflects a focused operating model, not corner-cutting.
