Steps to Successfully Buy or Sell a Pharmacy

When a person intends to buy … or sell … a pharmacy, there are a number of documentation and regulatory issues that must be addressed.  First, the seller must take a number of steps to make itself more “attractive.”  The buyer and seller need to decide whether the transaction will be an “asset” sale or a “stock” sale.  The parties will need to engage in the normal transactional steps: mutual nondisclosure agreement, letter of intent, stock purchase agreement/asset purchase agreement, and other closing documents.  The buyer will need to engage in three types of due diligence: financial, corporate and regulatory.  And the parties will need to meet a number of regulatory requirements such as submitting change of ownership notifications.  This program will discuss all of these (and other) issues associated with the purchase and sale of a supplier.
