The starting point for these considerations is to clarify your objectives of the sale and and the way in which you want to be involved after a transaction or not. A company succession may require a different approach than the exit of investors or an exit to a strategic partner. We consider which categories of buyers might be suitable and which buyer groups might be interested in your company and why. What company valuation is realistic? <\/span><\/p>\n

We prepare comprehensive documentation, including the so-called information memorandum, a holistic presentation of your company, technology, customers and markets. We also prepare a complete financial plan and an anonymous short presentation, the so-called teaser. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to us to present your company in a professional and positive manner, highlighting both its current status and its future opportunities and potential. We take the perspective of a potential buyer and consider what makes your company particularly interesting and valuable for him. <\/span>[\/nectar_icon_list_item][nectar_icon_list_item icon_type=”numerical” text_full_html=”html” title=”List Item” id=”1773927689079-5″ header=”Approach (~ 4 weeks)” tab_id=”1773927689079-5″]We identify potential buyers and approach them. We can practically always include interested parties in the transaction process who were previously unknown to you or who you would not have suspected were interested. To do this, we carry out our own extensive research, talk to experts and use powerful databases. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is important for us to get potential buyers interested in your company relatively simultaneously. You as our client should be able to compare various offers and select the most attractive package. We are also always very discreet and will only disclose the company name and details after a confidentiality agreement has been signed. <\/span>[\/nectar_icon_list_item][nectar_icon_list_item icon_type=”numerical” text_full_html=”html” title=”List Item” id=”1773927689086-9″ header=”Negotiation (~ 4-6 weeks)” tab_id=”1773927689086-0″]We coordinate all communication with the interested party and conduct the negotiations for you up to the signing of a letter of intent or term sheet, in which the key points of a transaction are agreed. We work with you to thoroughly prepare meetings and presentations. We work out valuation approaches and consider ways in which the purchase price can be optimized in your interests. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is important for us to define a transaction that meets your objectives as closely as possible. In addition to optimizing the purchase price, the subsequent integration of your company, the role of management, the incentivization of employees or other points may be decisive for you. <\/span>[\/nectar_icon_list_item][nectar_icon_list_item icon_type=”numerical” text_full_html=”html” title=”List Item” id=”1773927689093-2″ header=”Due Diligence (~ 4-6 weeks)” tab_id=”1773927689093-3″]Once a fundamental commercial agreement has been reached, the buyer will examine your company in great detail. We will work with you to prepare a virtual data room that contains all the key information, contracts, documents etc. for the buyer in a well-structured and complete form. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is important for us to start preparing for the due diligence at an early stage so that the audit runs smoothly and quickly. Critical information, e.g. about technological know-how, customers and current projects, deserves special protection. We are aware of this responsibility and will work with you to develop customized solutions, e.g. anonymized or severely restricted access to certain information. <\/span>[\/nectar_icon_list_item][nectar_icon_list_item icon_type=”numerical” text_full_html=”html” title=”List Item” id=”1773927689099-8″ header=”Contract (~ 2-4 weeks)” tab_id=”1773927689099-2″]The final contract, the so-called share or asset purchase agreement, is often negotiated at the same time in which the due diligence takes place. Even if specialized lawyers play an important role in this step, we coordinate the process very carefully in order to secure the deal and avoid unnecessary costs or risks. A well-drafted letter of intent will make this step less complicated or will have already addressed potential problems during the negotiations.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

It is important for us to involve lawyers with transaction experience, as this will make contract negotiations more efficient. We are happy to introduce you to various legal advisors \u2013 the decision remains with you.

Methods of a company valuation<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/nectar_highlighted_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

In the context of a company sale, a company valuation by an M&A consultant will help you to achieve the best possible sales price.<\/p>\n

In M&A practice, two main approaches are commonly used to calculate a company’s value: the application of industry-standard multiples on Revenue or EBITDA (\u201ctransaction multiples\u201d) and the discounted cash flow method.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#f7f7f7″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”2%” top_padding_phone=”10%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”left” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”center” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][split_line_heading animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” font_style=”h2″ line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”default” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” link_target=”_self” text_content=”Multipliers on sales or earnings” text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]The multiple method divides company valuations of comparable transactions by certain reference figures.

A DCF model includes the initial investment (as a negative cash flow) and the expected positive or negative cash flows in the future.
\nThe so-called terminal value, i.e. the value of the company in e.g. ten years, is also included. All payments in the future are discounted to take account of the cost of capital and the general risk of possible negative developments. However, the uncertainty of very long-term planning and the high influence of the underlying assumptions on the result are problematic.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#f7f7f7″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”2%” bottom_padding=”3%” bottom_padding_phone=”10%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”center” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” highlight_color=”#e11d3a” style=”regular_underline” highlight_expansion=”default” underline_thickness=”default” custom_font_size=”24″ text_direction=”default” delay=”250″]\n

Company valuation<\/span> as important preparation for the company sale<\/h2>\n[\/nectar_highlighted_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Despite the weaknesses of the company valuation methods mentioned above, they are an important preparation for a planned company sale. With your own company valuation, you gain an understanding of the corridor within which a valuation will usually lie and can better prepare yourself for negotiations.<\/p>\n

You will also recognize the factors that positively or negatively influence the valuation of your own company. And of course: in most cases, the potential buyer will use similar models and you can meet them prepared and at eye level.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”3%” constrain_group_2=”yes” top_padding_phone=”10%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bottom_padding=”1%” constrain_group_2=”yes” left_padding_phone=”5%” constrain_group_6=”yes” right_padding_phone=”5%” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default” column_padding_type=”default”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” highlight_color=”#e11d3a” style=”regular_underline” highlight_expansion=”default” underline_thickness=”default” custom_font_size=”24″ text_direction=”default” delay=”250″]\n

A startup founded a few years ago generates sales of 10 million euros per year, 100% of which are so-called recurring revenues. The loss last year was two million euros. The average revenue growth in the last years was 70% per year.
\nAn EBITDA multiple cannot be applied, but it is not unrealistic to assume that a revenue multiple of 10 will be paid upon sale of the company. The enterprise value is thus 100 million euros.

An established company generates revenues of 50 million euros per year, with an average annual growth of 5%. The company has no recurring revenues and generates an EBITDA of 15%, i.e. 7.5 million euros per year.
\nIn this case, it would be realistic to target a revenue multiple of 2 (or an EBITDA multiple of about 13) in a sale. Thus, the enterprise value is also 100 million euros.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”3%” constrain_group_2=”yes” top_padding_phone=”10%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bottom_padding=”1%” constrain_group_2=”yes” left_padding_phone=”5%” constrain_group_6=”yes” right_padding_phone=”5%” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default” column_padding_type=”default”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” highlight_color=”#e11d3a” style=”regular_underline” highlight_expansion=”default” underline_thickness=”default” custom_font_size=”24″ text_direction=”default” delay=”250″]\n

These two very different examples should make it clear that criteria such as a company’s growth and business model have an extremely high influence on the company valuation.<\/p>\n

The second company would never be able to achieve a similar sales multiple as the first company. Quick and sweeping statements about the value of a company should therefore be treated with caution. The company and its particular position must be considered on a case-by-case basis.<\/p>\n

FAQ<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][toggles style=”minimal”][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”Why is professional M&A advice useful when selling a company?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Professional support for the sale of a company by an M&A advisor should increase the purchase price and the probability of completion. In addition, relieving the burden on management is a key argument for involving an advisor. In certain phases of the sale (e.g. negotiating the share purchase agreement), the involvement of a specialized lawyer is also necessary.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What makes a company sale successful?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]A company sale is particularly successful if the sales proceeds meet or even exceed the seller’s expectations. The buyer should be a good fit for the company and ideally be able to contribute to its long-term development. To achieve these goals, it is worth consulting an experienced M&A advisor.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”How does a company valuation work?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]There is no such thing as an objective valuation when selling a company. Ultimately, the value of the company will be the price a buyer is willing to pay. Nevertheless, there are approaches with which a realistic range of valuations can be determined and discussed in advance of a company sale.<\/p>\n

To do so, a consultancy researches comparable transactions and considers the relationship between the company\u2019s own sales or profitability ratios and the available ratios of such sales (\u201ctransaction multiples\u201d). For listed companies operating in the same or similar segments, the corresponding valuations are analyzed (\u201ccomparables\u201d). In addition, based on a business plan, future cash flows can be incorporated into a discounted cash flow model (\u201cDCF valuation\u201d). A consultancy uses multiples and comparables to get a feel for an achievable valuation even before the actual M&A process begins.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”How are potential buyers identified?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]The starting point for researching a list of possible buyers (so-called long list) is to consider for whom the company is interesting and for what reasons. Possible buyer groups are, for example, foreign competitors who will succeed in entering the market with the takeover. Suppliers who work in neighboring market segments and who can integrate the company\u2019s range of services into their own portfolio. Companies upstream or downstream in the value chain that want to integrate more vertically, etc. In addition, there is the large class of financial investors who want to take over and further develop independent businesses.<\/p>\n

As a professional M&A advisor, Quantum Partners combines various methods and sources to arrive at a comprehensive, yet qualified longlist. Among other things, we draw on special databases, our own research, expert interviews and our broad network. Together with the client, the longlist is then condensed into a so-called shortlist. This contains the potential buyers who will be contacted in the first step.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What documents are required for a company sale?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]The first step typically requires a comprehensive company presentation (the so-called information memorandum). In addition, a complete financial plan with a review, a forecast for the current financial year and a plan for the next 3-5 years is required as the basis for the figures section, i.e. for quantitative corporate planning. Owner-managed companies can often take a pragmatic approach to their financial planning. Sometimes there is no formal budget, as the entrepreneur does not have to answer to anyone. However, the buyer of a business cannot do without proper and detailed financial planning. They also want to understand exactly how sales, margins and earnings have been structured in the past and are expected to be in the future. In most cases, he will also need a projected balance sheet as well as investment and cash flow planning.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”How is a company sale taxed?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]The tax payable on the sale of a company mainly depends on the legal form of the shareholder and the type of sale (share deal or asset deal). If, for example, a natural person sells more than 1% of the shares in a GmbH from their private assets, 60% of the capital gain is taxed at the individual tax rate (so-called partial income method). We recommend discussing and assessing the tax consequences of a transaction with your tax advisor in advance.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”When should I sell my company?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]The right timing is crucial for a successful company sale: a company can be sold well and will achieve an attractive valuation if the business is doing well and the future prospects are positive. But of course, external factors such as developments in the specific sector and the general economic situation also have an impact on the M&A process.<\/p>\n

When a sales process is started and concrete figures and plans begin to be communicated to interested parties, it is very important that the plans are also fulfilled during the negotiations and due diligence. If, for example, the sales pipeline is well filled and the forecast is realistic, this is an important prerequisite for a good result.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What are the reasons for selling a company?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]In the case of privately held companies, the most important reason for selling a company is to manage succession. However, the further development of the company by integrating a strategic partner can also be an important goal. If companies have been financed by venture capital or private equity, these partners will inevitably seek an exit. After a certain holding period, the investment is sold in order to repay the fund investors.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”How long does it take to sell a company?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]The M&A process typically takes around six to eight months from preparation to closing. The actual duration is significantly influenced by the complexity of the company and the preparation of the seller. If the necessary documentation is available and the company to be sold has very good management information systems, a process can also be completed in around four months. However, this would be very quick.<\/p>\n

In reality, there are often gaps in the documentation and controlling, which prolong the preparation process. If you are thinking about selling your company in the medium term, we can help you prepare efficiently as part of a ready-to-exit project<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What happens to employees when a company is sold?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Often, the topic of selling a company is associated with disadvantages for the employees involved. This may be the case with very large acquisitions, where the focus is on achieving synergies and reducing costs. In the case of technology-oriented or medium-sized company sales, with which the buyer, for example, opens up a new market segment or enters a market, the sale can open up new opportunities and potential for the employees involved.<\/p>\n

For example, employees of a regionally active company may be offered different career opportunities in a larger group, or they may be able to take on more interesting, internationally oriented tasks. Often, better resources, a strong brand name or the better sales network of the new partner are available. Normally, the buyer of a company wants to ensure that employees continue to perform well under the new owner. Therefore, it is often considered how to additionally motivate employees after a transaction.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h6″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”What does the buyer check during the due diligence process?”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]In an advanced transaction process, usually after conclusion of the letter of intent (LOI), the buyer will want to investigate the company carefully. This is done in what is known as due diligence. In this risk assessment, the buyer is supported by appropriate experts. The scope and length of a due diligence depends in particular on the size and complexity of the target company.<\/p>\n

The main areas of investigation include, in particular, the formal topics of law, finance and taxes, the market, customers and business model (\u201ccommercial\u201d), as well as technology and IP. If risks (so-called red flags) are identified at the target company during the due diligence process, this can have an impact on the company valuation and the further course of negotiations.<\/p>\n

In the run-up to a due diligence, Quantum Partners prepares a well-structured virtual data room together with the seller, in which the buyer can access all necessary information. We will be happy to provide you with a comprehensive due diligence checklist free of charge and without obligation upon request.[\/vc_column_text][\/toggle][\/toggles][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#f7f7f7″ scene_position=”center” top_padding=”5%” bottom_padding=”3%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” highlight_color=”#e11d3a” style=”regular_underline” highlight_expansion=”default” underline_thickness=”default” text_direction=”default”]\n
