Strategic rationale
Its appraisal product is an explicit bet on dealer vehicle acquisition. Private-party sourcing would extend that from valuing a car the dealer already has in front of them to finding the car in the first place.
Recommended approach
Use the two IOIs to compress Lakeshore's timeline without disclosing the bidders. All-cash at $24M with a small retention covenant is a credible third leg.
