What does your business do?
Describe what your business does in a few words. We'll match it to the closest industry we have closed-deal data for.
Do you own the property or equipment your business operates from?
Think: the building, land, or specialized machinery — not standard vehicles or office gear. This affects the asset-based floor in your valuation.
What was your revenue over the last 12 months?
Total sales — gross, before any expenses.
What's your annual SDE?
Net profit + owner salary + personal expenses + non-recurring costs. The number buyers use to value your business.
SDE (seller’s discretionary earnings) is your total owner benefit: net profit, plus your own salary, plus personal expenses run through the business, plus any one-time costs that won’t recur.
SDE of $0 is unusual — most owners forget to add back their salary and personal expenses run through the business. Make sure SDE includes: net profit + your annual salary + personal expenses + any one-time costs. If $0 is correct, continue.
How has the business been performing over the last 3 years?
Buyers pay a premium for businesses with momentum.
Which state is the business in?
We use this to find local comparable sales and tune the multiple to your market. Type to add multiple states — useful if your business operates across several. Skip to use nationwide data.
