#1. Architecture millwork co. w/ $8M annual revenue

🏷️ Asking Price: $1.98M

📍Location: Texas

Overview: This well-established boutique architectural millwork company has been serving the Texas market for over 30 years, generating $8M in annual revenue and $780K in SDE (2.5x multiple). Specializing in high-end custom wood veneer walls, ceilings, casework, and furniture, the company has a strong client base across commercial and residential sectors (74% and 26% of revenue, respectively). It operates from a 50,000 sqft. facility, housing a full-cycle manufacturing operation with CNC equipment, paint booths, and staging areas. The business currently has a $9M pipeline of contracted work and a skilled team of ~35 W-2 employees, supplemented by 15-20 subcontractors.

What I Like 👍

• Strong Backlog – $9M in projects already secured, ensuring revenue stability post-acquisition.

• Diverse Client Base – Serving commercial, institutional, and luxury residential sectors reduces market risk.

• Full-Service Operation – From design to installation, the company controls the entire production cycle, which enhances margins and quality control.

• Established Reputation – 30+ years in the business with long-term relationships with architects, designers, and contractors.

• Owners Willing to Stay – One owner is open to remaining full-time, which could provide operational continuity.

What to Look Out For 👀

• High Lease Costs – The 50,000 sqft. facility costs $34,000/month, which is significant and may require lease renegotiation.

• ERP & Systems Upgrade Needed – Investing in better project management, bidding, and accounting systems could improve efficiency and financial oversight.

• Sales Team Development – No dedicated sales team; growth has been driven by industry relationships. A formal sales strategy could increase high-margin opportunities.

• Owner Dependency – The President is deeply involved in daily operations, so a transition plan will be critical.

Key Questions❓

• What is the breakdown of the $9M backlog in terms of project size, timeline, and profitability?

• How dependent is the business on existing industry relationships, and how transferable are they to a new owner?

• What investments are needed in ERP, bidding, and project management systems to optimize operations?

#2. Sign manufacturing and install biz w/ $1.35M annual SDE

🏷️ Asking Price: $3.5M

📍Location: Atlanta, GA

Overview: This sign manufacturing and installation company has been operating for nearly 18 years, serving a mix of retail clients and major corporations that make up 40–60% of its client base. With $4.8M in annual revenue and $1.35M in SDE (2.6x multiple), the business has a strong financial foundation and a team of 25+ employees. It operates from a 15,000 sqft. facility with a long-term lease through 2030, providing stability for new ownership. The company holds strong industry relationships, particularly in the automotive sector, and offers significant growth potential through expanded service offerings and geographic reach.

What I Like 👍

• Established Client Base – Long-term relationships with major corporate clients, including a large automobile manufacturer.

• Stable Operations – A seasoned team of 25+ employees and a well-equipped 15,000 sq. ft. facility provide operational continuity.

• Diverse Revenue Streams – Serving both retail and corporate clients reduces dependence on any single revenue source.

• Growth Potential – Expanding services beyond signage, particularly in interior design, could increase revenue.

• Owner Training & Transition – The seller is willing to stay on for a few months, ensuring a smooth handover.

What to Look Out For 👀

• Client Concentration Risk – A large portion of revenue comes from one major auto client; losing this contract could significantly impact cash flow. 

• Vehicles Not Included – Company fleet is excluded from the sale, possibly requiring extra investment.

• Scaling Challenges – Business serves a niche market; expansion potential depends on securing new large contracts.

Key Questions❓

• What percentage of revenue comes from the largest client, and how secure is that relationship?

• What specific equipment and vehicles are excluded from the sale, and what would be the cost to replace them?

• How reliant is the business on the current owner for client relationships, and how will the transition be handled?

What to Look Out For 👀

• Short Lease Term – Current lease expires in September; landlord is open to a longer lease but terms should be reviewed.

• Outside License Holder – The company relies on an external qualifier ($1,000-$1,500/month); employees can take the master plumber exam, but this transition should be planned.

• Recent Growth – Revenue nearly doubled from 2023 to 2024; sustainability of this trajectory should be evaluated.

• Marketing Spend – Spent $200K on advertising in 2024, with $350K in available budget—important to assess ROI and necessity of continued investment.
