Corporate Development Services

DCG can partner with you to provide corporate development services as needed. You get the strategic rigor, deep analytics, track record, and resources of the industry’s largest operators — without the overhead of building this capability in-house.

Are You…

Struggling to manage portfolio strategy on your own to meet your growth goals?
Juggling the demands of developing OEM relationships while also sourcing deals?
Missing off-market opportunities because you’re only seeing what brokers bring to you?
Stretched thin with OEM approvals, capital structure decisions, and diligence demands?
Looking for a clear view of which stores to hold, invest in, or exit?
Seeking a long-term strategic partner who knows your platform and is proactively working on your goals?

What DCG Delivers

DCG Corporate Development is your partner on retainer, proactively managing your acquisition pipeline, optimizing your portfolio, and providing input into your capital decisions — all while staying fully aligned with your long-term success.

You’ll get the full DCG team and our proprietary JumpIQ platform to give you rooftop-level intelligence on all 18,000 rooftops nationwide, so every decision is grounded in real market data.

Strategic Growth Roadmap

We build and maintain a living acquisition strategy for your platform, helping you to define target geographies, brand priorities, and financial criteria, then mapping a clear, actionable path to get there.

Acquisition Sourcing & Pipeline Management

Using JumpIQ’s unmatched visibility into ownership patterns, market dynamics, and dealership performance, we identify and pursue off-market targets. We maintain a curated, continuously updated pipeline so you’re always focused on the right opportunities.

Portfolio Optimization

We continuously evaluate your existing rooftops, assessing brand mix and store-level performance, market position, and capital efficiency to identify what’s driving value and where you’re leaving it behind. Whether the move is to invest, divest, or hold, we give you clarity and a plan.

OEM & Capital Advisory

We manage the processes that can make or break an acquisition. We draft business cases, advocate with OEMs, and find and pre-vet buyers and sellers for suitability and fit. We assess your capital structure and introduce alternatives when traditional financing limits your pace.

Due Diligence & Integration Leadership

From LOI through closing, we are an integral part of your deal team, helping manage the data room, surfacing risks early, and keeping execution on track.

Why Clients Choose DCG

DCG’s clients want a partner who is continuously working toward their growth. The Office of Corporate Development gives you the best of both worlds: world-class expertise and execution, and a partnership that’s sized for your needs.

Working with the Dave Cantin Group on our acquisition of Visalia Hyundai was an outstanding experience. Their role as a strategic advisor, combined with industry knowledge that is second to none, gave us complete confidence throughout the process. They understand the market — especially here in California — and that insight proved invaluable. Hugh Morris and Anthony Holbrook were exceptional partners. They were proactive, detail‑driven, and fully committed to keeping the transaction on track from start to finish. DCG delivered exactly what they promised and made a complex deal feel seamless. We’re grateful for their expertise and look forward to working with them again as Fahrney Auto Group continues to grow.
