Real deal breakdowns, acquisition lessons, and market insights for buyers who want to make better decisions.

High cash flow… but surprisingly little left over.

Solid cash flow, stable margins… but no real edge.

Good systems, full team, manager in place… but the numbers don’t justify the price.

Luxury positioning sounds great - but the numbers don’t fully back it up.

Moat, contracts, real estate… and still not enough cash flow.

Two locations, 30 employees… and surprisingly thin returns.

$3.5M in revenue… but the margin tells the real story.

Decent cash flow… but margins this thin can break the deal.

$10M business… but what do you actually keep?

Lower margins, higher price… and that’s the problem.

Great margins, solid cash flow… but the lease can change everything.
