Michael Girdley (@Girdley) and Bill D’Alessandro (@BillDA) talk about a Unique Family Amusement Waterpark & Campground Facility in the United States.
We discussed this deal but also dug into how to value the real estate involved in a transaction, how that relates to the business's overall value, and how to value and manage cash flow in a seasonal business. High CapEx businesses and financial metrics don’t get along well, so we also shed some light on what to analyze when looking at one of these.
