Well-Established Passenger Transportation Company with Significant Growth Potential An opportunity to acquire a well-established passenger transportation company with more than 20 years of operating history and a strong reputation for providing high-quality transportation services to corporate, institutional, university, group travel, and private clients. The company offers a diversified mix of motorcoach transportation, employee shuttle services, and executive transportation. Operations are supported by a substantial fleet of vehicles and an experienced team of professional drivers and administrative personnel. The business has developed numerous long-standing customer relationships, including relationships that have continued for many years. A portion of revenue is generated from recurring and contractual transportation services, providing an attractive base of ongoing business. The company also has meaningful opportunities for expansion. Existing fleet capacity provides the ability to increase motorcoach activity without immediately requiring significant additional fleet investment. Management has also identified employee shuttle programs as an attractive area for future growth. Additional opportunities include expanding relationships with universities and institutional clients, pursuing additional corporate shuttle contracts, increasing executive transportation services, and expanding into additional geographic markets. The company has an established operating infrastructure, experienced employees, and a diversified service offering that could make the opportunity attractive to an existing transportation operator seeking geographic expansion or an entrepreneur looking to acquire an established platform in the passenger transportation industry.

COMPANY OVERVIEW The Company is a two-hub specialty fleet-services business operating at the intersection of two attractive lower-middle-market investment themes: commercial fleet maintenance and testing, inspection, and certification. From facilities in Washington and Wisconsin, the Company builds, certifies, inspects, maintains, and repairs propane and refined-fuel delivery trucks, cargo tanks, bulk-storage plants, and related equipment. It does not buy or sell fuel; revenue comes from equipment, labor, and parts. KEY KPIs - $14.0 million of FY2025 revenue - $2.1 million of FY2025 adjusted EBITDA - 15.0% FY2025 adjusted EBITDA margin - $2.2 million of LTM June 2026 adjusted EBITDA - 49% of revenue from truck builds - 51% from service, inspection, plant, container, and mobile work - Approximately 70 truck builds annually - Approximately 40 purchase orders for 2027 builds as of August 2026 - Typical backlog of four to nine months - 45 employees, including 27 technicians - Two operating hubs - Approximately 25% to 30% additional capacity at the Washington facility - Management willing to remain and roll equity COMMERCIAL FLEET MAINTENANCE + TIC Federal regulations require applicable cargo tanks to complete annual inspections and leakage tests, together with internal inspections and pressure tests every five or ten years. A tank cannot remain in service after an inspection becomes due until testing is completed. This regulatory cycle creates recurring customer touchpoints. Inspections frequently generate repair and parts revenue, while the relationship can ultimately produce replacement-truck orders. The Company can build the vehicle, certify it, inspect it, repair it, and replace it. Specialized credentials, including National Board R-stamp capabilities, FMCSA cargo-tank registrations, registered inspectors, certified welders, and final-stage manufacturer registrations, create meaningful barriers to entry. BUY-AND-BUILD PLATFORM The Company provides an attractive starting point for a commercial fleet-maintenance and TIC buy-and-build strategy. The owner has already acquired two established regional businesses since 2025, creating a two-hub operation with shared compliance leadership, technical expertise, supplier relationships, and national customers. A sponsor could acquire regional truck builders, cargo-tank inspection facilities, fleet-maintenance providers, meter-calibration businesses, bulk-plant contractors, and mobile service operators. A hub-and-spoke strategy could add local inspection and service centers around the two build hubs. Acquired locations would contribute customers, technicians, certifications, and recurring inspection routes while directing larger repairs and new-build opportunities into Washington and Wisconsin. STRATEGIC ADD-ON The Company would also be a compelling add-on for an existing fleet-services, TIC, specialty-vehicle, tank-services, truck-equipment, or propane-equipment aggregator. A strategic buyer would gain two regional hubs, recurring regulatory demand, approximately 70 annual truck builds, specialized credentials, experienced technicians, and long-standing national customer relationships. Potential synergies include centralized purchasing, shared compliance resources, expanded road-service coverage, cross-selling, back-office consolidation, and increased facility utilization. The opportunity combines essential fleet maintenance, recurring regulatory demand, technical barriers to entry, fragmented competition, succession-driven acquisition opportunities, and a management team willing to remain and invest alongside the buyer. Historical financial figures combine both operations for all periods presented, including periods before common ownership.

An established non-emergency medical transportation company in upstate New York, founded in 2013 and run since by its sole owner, a former certified public accountant. It moves Medicaid-eligible riders to dialysis, treatment programs, clinic appointments, hospital discharges, and outpatient care across a multi-county service area, using 53 ambulatory and wheelchair-capable vehicles and about 48 drivers. Revenue grew from $2.39 million in 2023 to $2.73 million in 2024 to $4.53 million in 2025, a 65.8% increase in the most recent full year. That growth is not a rate increase and it is not an acquisition. In late 2024 the company was awarded seven preferred provider zones by the state's Medicaid transportation manager, with staggered start dates from November 2024 through January 2025. Monthly billings stepped up in exactly that sequence, from roughly $292,000 in November 2024 to $360,000 in December, $368,000 in January 2025, and $518,000 by March. Those zones carry negotiated per-leg rates above the general assigned rate, and all nine zone and destination pairings received a further rate increase effective July 2026. Current activity is running ahead of the 2025 full year. Five consecutive settled remittance weeks in July and August 2026 averaged $97,098 per week, an annualized run rate of approximately $5.05 million. Revenue quality is unusually verifiable. Platform billed charges were compared to cash actually remitted by the state fiscal agent across those same five weeks: $481,884 billed against $485,488 paid, a 100.7% realization, every week inside four percent. Denial leakage is effectively nil, and a buyer can validate the top line from third-party payment records rather than the seller's books. Operations run on a dispatch and claims platform that assigns every leg and files claims daily. Across 53 service days in July and August 2026 the company completed 24,738 legs, averaging 556 legs and about 300 unique riders on a weekday, at a blended $33.20 per leg. Roughly 41% of per-leg revenue is earned above the base ambulatory rate, the direct economic signature of the awarded zone work. Revenue mix is about 60% general assigned Medicaid trips, 30% preferred provider zone work, and 10% direct long-distance rehabilitation discharge transport under a single provider relationship. The company is enrolled and in good standing as a Medicaid transportation provider and participates in a captive insurance program, with incurred claims down from $310,000 in 2023 and $256,000 in 2024 to $57,000 in 2025 and $23,000 year to date in 2026. A full-time mechanic maintains the fleet in-house from the company's own garage. Staffing is deliberately elastic: a core of full-time drivers is paired with a part-time bench that absorbs seasonal demand, so fixed labor cost is not carried through the winter trough. The owner works a partial day and describes his role as high level, limited to correspondence with the state transportation manager on territory and rates, escalated rider incidents, and vehicle policy. Dispatch, billing, administration, maintenance, and bookkeeping are handled by staff expected to remain. Growth is available without inventing anything. The awarded zones are less than two years old and not yet at full utilization, and more are awarded by application to the same counterparty the company already deals with directly. Wheelchair-capable capacity is two units against a service area with materially more wheelchair demand than the company can serve, and wheelchair legs bill at a substantial premium to ambulatory. Suited to a strategic buyer in medical transportation, a healthcare services platform, or an operator with working capital to fund receivables and fleet. Detailed financials and the confidential information memorandum are available following a signed non-disclosure agreement and buyer qualification.

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating transportation and storage business acquisitions.
A storage facility's occupancy is durable real-estate income; trucking and moving revenue depends on contracts and crews. Price the two very differently.
Trucks, trailers, vehicles, and build-outs are capital-heavy with finite lives; get age, maintenance history, and the deferred replacement schedule.
Authority, safety ratings, and driver qualifications are central and may not transfer; review the compliance record.
Contracted freight or a few large accounts can carry a transportation business and leave with little notice; understand the terms.
Margins move with fuel and wages, and qualified drivers are scarce; understand the cost structure and key-person risk.
Occupancy history, rate increases, and property condition drive value; confirm the numbers and any deferred maintenance.
