Hello,
I had another machine shop owner approach me about buying my business. I am looking for information on how to value my business. I am especially looking for ranges of valuation multiples of EBITDA, Net Income, or Seller's Discretionary Income. My EBITDA margins are around 35%. The potential buyer values the reputation, employees, and customer base of my business , which includes 12-17 customers over the last three years with revenues between $2-$3 million. I have read that 3-5X EBITDA multiples is common in this industry. Is this accurate or could the EBITDA multiples more/less based on margins. Any information as how to get an idea of what my company is worth in a sale would be appreciated.
