COMPANY OVERVIEW The Company is a multi-state provider of outsourced automotive reconditioning services to franchise dealerships. Approximately 238 employees operate within 34 dealership accounts across five states, providing detailing, paintless dent repair, bumper and wheel repair, paint touch-up, glass and interior repair, ceramic coatings, and related services. The Company replaces multiple vendors with one coordinated provider and a single per-vehicle price, helping dealerships simplify operations, maintain consistent quality, and reduce the time required to prepare inventory for sale. KEY KPIs $15.0 million of TTM July 2026 revenue Approximately $1.5 million of adjusted EBITDA Approximately 9.8% adjusted EBITDA margin 19.3% revenue growth compared with FY2024 34 dealership accounts across five states and six metropolitan markets Approximately 238 employees 86.5% of revenue from luxury-franchise dealerships Largest customer represents 10.2% of revenue 21 continuously served accounts generated $10.8 million of TTM revenue and have grown 31.0% since FY2023 Administrative overhead represents only 1.9% of revenue Seven area managers and five location managers USED-VEHICLE TAILWIND The aging U.S. vehicle fleet and continued new-vehicle affordability pressures support demand for used vehicles. Vehicles remaining in service longer generally require more cosmetic, interior, glass, wheel, paint, and detailing work before resale. Used vehicles also generate greater revenue per unit for the Company, with representative package pricing of approximately $650 per used vehicle compared with $300 per new vehicle. This creates an opportunity to expand within existing dealership used-car departments and enter independent used dealerships, automotive auctions, rental fleets, and vehicle-remarketing channels. BUY-AND-BUILD STRATEGY The Company represents an attractive starting point for a scaled automotive reconditioning platform. The market remains fragmented across local detailing, paintless dent repair, wheel, glass, tint, coating, and mobile body-repair providers. Acquisitions could be used to: Enter new markets with established dealership relationships Add technicians and complementary services Cross-sell acquired capabilities across the existing account base Expand into used-car dealerships, auctions, and fleet remarketing Centralize billing, purchasing, recruiting, training, and administration Build density around existing markets and dealer groups DE NOVO EXPANSION De novo growth could follow a repeatable cluster strategy: secure an anchor dealership, recruit a local crew and regional manager, and expand into nearby franchise and independent used-car dealerships. Because employees primarily operate from customer facilities, new locations require limited facility investment. The Company can initially establish core detailing operations and then introduce higher-value specialty services as each market develops. INVESTMENT POSITIONING The Company already possesses the customer relationships, management infrastructure, workforce, training capabilities, and multi-market experience required to integrate acquisitions and launch new locations. A buyer could use the business as the seed platform for a national outsourced dealership-services provider, benefiting from an aging vehicle fleet, growing used-car reconditioning requirements, dealership outsourcing, and consolidation of a fragmented vendor market.

Opportunity abounds with this uniquely positioned tiki boat tour business located in Fishers, Indiana. Premised on a custom-built, Coast Guard-approved tiki boat, this enterprise offers a distinctive way to enjoy Geist Reservoir with room for up to ten passengers per tour. Despite operational constraints due to unforeseen personal circumstances, the business amassed over 40 inquiries in its sole partial season. With no revenue to date, this asset sale includes the custom tiki boat, a built-out website for bookings, and all branding materials.

A variety of factors can cause businesses to trade outside this range, including earnings quality, operational transferability, key-person risk, growth trajectory, and geography, so a listing priced above or below the typical multiple usually reflects real differences in the underlying business.
Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating auto manufacturing acquisitions.
Get revenue by customer and by program for at least three years. Specialty manufacturing at this scale often depends on a handful of OEM relationships or fleet contracts. One lost program can reset the business, which is exactly why the asking prices in this group range so widely. Concentration is the number that explains the multiple, so price it explicitly.
Value signed backlog over historical revenue. A builder with a contracted order book and renewing programs is fundamentally more valuable than one with the same trailing revenue earned from finished one-off jobs. Ask for the order backlog as of the diligence date and the contract terms.
Inventory the tooling and certifications, and verify they transfer. Specialized jigs, molds, machinery, and quality or regulatory certifications can represent a large share of value and a barrier to entry. About 17 percent of these businesses own their real estate.
Identify the key engineers and fabricators and plan to keep them. These businesses run on specialized skills that are hard to hire, and the knowledge often sits with a few people. Around a quarter of these sellers offer financing, which gives you room to structure a transition that retains critical staff.
Model the cash locked in long build cycles and progress billing. Custom builds can run months, with materials and labor funded well ahead of final payment. Understand the billing milestones, deposit structure, and work-in-process so you can size the working capital you must bring.
Match your diligence to the specific product. Aircraft and marine work carry certification and liability regimes that automotive customization does not. Confirm the relevant approvals, insurance history, and any open claims for the exact sub-segment you are buying.
