Competitors

  • Part of a larger whole
  • Take most valuable parts of your business and get rid of the rest
  • Loss of competitive advantage
  • Customer relationships may get damaged
  • Brand reputation could suffer
  • Integration challenges could take a toll on your company and the culture you created

Investment Considerations

INDUSTRY
Companies in different industires trade a different multiples. For example companies and software and biotech trade at higher multiples than construction companies.

SIZE
We prefer companies in the $300k -$2 million in EBITDA range.

CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION
If one or a few customers make up a a majority of a companies revenue, this leads to a reduction in multiples.

TEAM
If there is a team in place, we will be able to spend our time focused on the strategic inititives of trying to increase revenue and further awarness of the company.
