Exit Smart Report 2023
William Buck’s leading Exit Smart Report measures the level of exit-readiness of businesses from a wide range of industries across Australia and New Zealand.
This year, our findings reveal a significant lack of preparedness among surveyed business owners to exit their business. This is a significant risk and can mean the difference between a successful exit at maximum profit and a difficult exit where value may be lost.

A key finding from this report was that business owners in Australia and New Zealand have substantial concerns about being able to find a buyer for their business and receiving their desired sale price. This may be due to the business’s heavy reliance on its current owners but is also caused by a lack of exit planning. In our experience, long-term exit planning can help owners alleviate both these concerns while also maximising their profits.
