This episode features a searcher bringing a real deal he’s considering: a Miami-based architectural sign manufacturing company with approximately $6.9M in revenue and $1.9M in seller’s discretionary earnings, listed for $6.3M (about 3.3x SDE). The business specializes in high-end signage for large commercial clients—including cruise lines, hotels, and hospitals—and operates from a 17,000-square-foot facility with separate real estate valued at roughly $4.7M.
Key Highlights:
- $6.9M revenue, $1.9M SDE, asking $6.3M (~3.3x multiple)
- High-end architectural sign manufacturer serving cruise lines and hospitals
- Real estate valued at $4.7M sold separately with seller financing
- Major diligence risks: customer concentration, project-based revenue, owner dependency
- Only one month transition offered—significant operational risk
