Price Required
Indicative offers subject to due diligence are invited, we expect offers to be around a multiple of 6 times Adjusted EBIT and above . The business is large and ‘standalone’ and few purchasers could easily “tuck in” this business into their own existing infrastructure. It is for this reason we believe that Adjusted EBIT is the best methodology to use when calculating the purchase price.
Purchase Price ~ 6 x $1,490,034 = $8,940,000
The purchase price will be based off the rolling twelve-month Adjusted EBIT figures at completion of Due Diligence.
