An asset purchase agreement is a contract that transfers specified assets from a seller to a buyer, outlining price and terms. It focuses on assets rather than stock, helping limit assumptions of liabilities and enabling smoother post-closing integration.
Purchase price is typically based on asset value, market conditions, and negotiated adjustments. Adjustments may reflect inventory, accounts receivable, or working capital targets.
Liabilities commonly addressed include contracts, permits, ongoing obligations, and unresolved claims. The agreement may specify which liabilities the buyer assumes and which remain with the seller.
