From co-managing the Odwalla IPO at Van Kasper & Company to raising $100 million with Lehman Brothers for a Pacific Northwest workers comp captive when insurance was unavailable at any price, David Horwich shares why thinking like a buyer, understanding the three ways to grow a business, and building optionality matter more than chasing any specific exit. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with David Horwich, the founder of Horwich Strategic Advisors (HSA) in Los Angeles. David spent 13 years at Van Kasper & Company before its 1999 sale, retired from banking in 2010, and spent nearly nine years at GHJ before spinning out his own firm about a year ago. Across his four decade career he has been exposed to somewhere between 5,000 and 5,500 companies. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Why running a market check with five investment banking firms and five private equity groups produces a real world valuation, how the three ways to grow apply to almost any company, and why selling new stuff to existing customers is by far the easiest path. David also shares how the workers comp captive he raised $100 million for is still operating today. DAVID'S JOURNEY: After economics at UC San Diego and an MBA at Berkeley, David spent five years at a transportation equipment leasing business in San Francisco. He then joined Bruce Emeluth as the first hire at Van Kasper & Company, where he stayed 13 years and chaired the firm's fairness opinion committee. Van Kasper was sold in 1999 to a bank out of Salt Lake City that Wells Fargo later acquired, making the group the first incarnation of Wells Fargo Securities in the fall of 2000. David left in 2003, retired from banking in 2010, spent nearly nine years at GHJ, and spun out Horwich Strategic Advisors about a year ago. KEY INSIGHTS: Not all revenue is created equal. Repeatable revenue beats one-off revenue. Higher margin beats lower margin. Revenue that requires no working capital beats revenue that ties it up. Most owners street fight for the next million dollars of revenue without asking whether it is good revenue or bad. There are three ways to grow a business and the second is easiest by far. Sell what you have to more customers. Sell new stuff to existing customers. Sell new stuff to new customers. David is emphatic that you should almost never attempt the third. Existing customers have already crossed the Rubicon with you, so every cost is lower. Build optionality before you build an exit plan. Before running any analysis for owners unsure what to do, David sends them to their investment advisor to get their financial goals clear first. Then he outlines every alternative. Keep it. Sell it. Recapitalize it. Gift some but not all. The toolkit is small, but choosing well requires clarity first. Perfect for privately held business owners who want to know what their company is actually worth, entrepreneurs weighing whether to buy or build, and leaders in a transition moment who need optionality before an exit.

Todd Mortensen is a corporate attorney in New York City who advises boards of directors, investment banks, and special committees on sell-side, buy-side, public, and private transactions in a wide range of industries. Todd has represented Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase, Barclays Capital, Wells Fargo Securities, UBS, and Rothschild & Co. among others. Todd has also worked in a number of investment management roles at Blackstone, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, and Wells Fargo. He's a former professional athlete and speaks fluent Spanish and earned a JD/MBA from Penn Law School and Wharton. In this episode we discuss the following: As a corporate attorney Todd helps CEOs and Boards of Directors 1) act in good faith and 2) be fully informed when buying and selling billion-dollar businesses. If the execs fulfill those two requirements, the court will defer to the “business judgement rule.” Otherwise, the courts will use the more stringent “entire fairness” standard. If you want to be successful at anything, you typically have to work really, really hard at it. This includes embracing the process of improving a little bit each day, week, and year. And if you're consistent and diligent with your work ethic, overtime you'll rise to the top. If you're good to people, doors will open for you. Todd's managing director at Morgan Stanley taught him that the decisions that would most affect Todd's career would likely be made when Todd wasn't in the room. So, Todd needed to make sure that his reputation helped rather than hurt him during those meetings. As Todd learned in Venezuela, “Create fama y echete a la came.” Create fame for yourself, and then go lie down. Our reputation is either helping or hurting us.
