Rolling River Company is a distributor of unique four 4 wheel bicycles that have a 360 degree turning radius. The business currently offers three non-electric bicycles; single rider, two person, and three/four person. Only one rider has the ability to steer but each seated rider has the ability to pedal. The business just completed fiscal year 2016 which was another successful year.

While the company has been growing organically for the past few years the board members (who represent the shareholders) of Rolling River Company do not see enough growth in the existing business and have been pushing the CEO to make a strategic purchase.

Rolling River Company has been in talks to purchase a company in Denmark. The company manufactures one key product, the Denmark Wheel. The Denmark Wheelis an electric wheel that can be placed on almost any bike to give riders the choice of either pedaling or simply engaging the electric wheel. The CEO strongly believes this acquisition could double U.S. sales and be a key factor in taking the business international.
