RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:$325 million in long term debtRespectfully, you can't honestly compare selling 100% of a business with raising capital into a business. They are different transactions financially, and more importantly, they are different transactions EMOTIONALLY for the founders (sellers).
It's like the difference between your daughter going to college, and your daughter getting married.

listen to yourself grasping for anything. the capital markets/private equity markets would beg to differ. founders sell their businesses to build and grow them all the time - that's exactly what a company does when they go public or do a private financing raise. this happens every day in the M&A world in all shapes and sizes of businesses.
