Legal & Regulatory Disclosures

Consolidated entity, credential, licensing, sourcing, conflicts and results disclosures that apply to this website.

Interim disclosure

This page is an interim disclosure maintained by Merge & Acquire. It describes current practice in good faith and is not counsel-approved final legal terms, and it is not legal, tax, or investment advice. The applicable contracting entity, governing law, licensing arrangements, and fee terms for any matter are supplied in the signed engagement or listing documentation for that matter, which prevails over this page.

Operating Entity

Merge & Acquire is a brand operated by Strydom Capital LLC, a Florida limited liability company. Applicable contracting entity, governing law, licensing and fee details are supplied in the signed engagement or listing documentation for each matter. To request them in advance, email compliance@mergenacquire.com.

CPA Credential Status

Jan Johannes Strydom holds California CPA license 129147. Merge & Acquire and Strydom Capital LLC are not CPA firms and do not provide audit, review, attestation or other assurance services. No representation is made of a current practice privilege or licensure in any other jurisdiction, or of authority to issue audits, reviews, attestation or assurance reports, fairness opinions, tax opinions or formal appraisals.

Real-Estate Activity

Florida real-estate brokerage services are provided through a licensed Florida real-estate brokerage under its qualifying broker, subject to the applicable written engagement or cooperation arrangement for the matter. Strydom Capital LLC does not itself hold a real-estate brokerage license. General transaction consulting provided by Merge & Acquire is separate from licensed brokerage activity. We do not represent that we are licensed in every jurisdiction. The name and license details of the cooperating brokerage for any specific listing are provided on request at compliance@mergenacquire.com and in the listing documentation.

Securities and Investment Activity

Neither Merge & Acquire nor Strydom Capital LLC is presented on this website as an SEC- or FINRA-registered broker-dealer, investment adviser, or funding portal. The website does not offer or sell securities, sponsor investment funds or limited partnerships, manage investor capital, or effect securities transactions.

Any capital-raising or securities-related matter is escalated to legal counsel and, where required, to an appropriately registered intermediary before any activity is undertaken.

Venture opportunities and founder submissions are presented for discovery and evaluation. Merge & Acquire does not offer or sell securities through this website and does not accept transaction-based compensation for investor introductions through this workflow. Any regulated capital-raising activity is undertaken only through appropriately registered or licensed parties, or another lawful structure, after review.

Nothing on this site is a personal recommendation, and no content should be treated as investment, legal, tax or accounting advice. Acquisitions and private transactions involve risk, including possible loss of capital; private opportunities are illiquid and long-dated; past outcomes are not indicative of future results; and any projections or forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain. Consult independent qualified advisors before making any decision.

Deal Sources and Verification

Opportunities are sourced from direct mandates, permissioned co-listings, referral and cooperation arrangements, and editorial listings compiled for discovery and evaluation, including founder and seller submissions. We do not bypass authentication, paywalls, CAPTCHAs, robots controls or rate limits, and we do not copy proprietary descriptions, photographs or analysis without permission.

Publication is not verification, endorsement, an offer, or a representation that an opportunity remains available. Status and underlying information must be reconfirmed before reliance.

Public listings show only approved teaser fields. Confidential information, counterparty identity, complete financials, contracts and diligence materials are not published. Access to confidential materials may require identity and capacity review, proof of funds, conflicts clearance, eligibility review, and an executed NDA. Submitting a request does not guarantee access.

Editorial scores are internal screening aids, not valuations, ratings or recommendations. Listings display a last-checked date; records that can no longer be reconfirmed are marked stale or expired. Any example opportunity shown for demonstration purposes is clearly labelled as an illustrative example and is not available for transaction. Source and take-down requests: compliance@mergenacquire.com.

Conflicts of Interest

Conflicts can arise where we advise both sides of a transaction, hold an economic interest in a matter we also present to third parties, receive third-party compensation such as referral or success fees, publish editorial coverage of a subject in which the firm or an author holds an interest, or hold overlapping roles with professional partners.

We manage conflicts through written engagement letters setting out role, scope and fees; separation between advisory and editorial activities where required; prior written disclosure to affected parties; and refusal of an engagement where a conflict cannot be adequately managed. Applicable contracting entity, governing law, licensing, and fee details are supplied in the signed engagement or listing documentation for each matter. To raise a conflict-of-interest concern, contact compliance@mergenacquire.com.

Testimonials and Results

Any testimonial, case study or example outcome shown on this site reflects a specific situation and is not a promise, projection or guarantee of a comparable result. Results vary with market conditions, business quality, counterparty behaviour and factors outside our control. We do not guarantee deal outcomes, closings, pricing or financing.

A preliminary value range is illustrative and based substantially on information you provide and the assumptions stated with it. It is not an appraisal, fairness opinion, tax valuation, audit, assurance report, or a guarantee of sale price, and it requires further diligence before any reliance.
