What are the actual "provable" adjusted net earnings (cash flow) of a company being purchased and considered for business acquisition financing? Buyers will need to look carefully at tax returns and financial statements to determine the "real" adjusted net income or cash flow of the business being purchased - banks and financial institutions review these numbers carefully (and in many instances discount items that may be considered addbacks). If you are thinking of financing a business purchase you need to read this BizBen blog posting.

Buyer Seeks Restaurant, Cell Phone Store, Smog Center, Mail Box Store - absentee run businesses in the Los Angeles, Ventura area. He states: " I am primarily interested in small restaurants (not full service), mail box stores, cell phone stores, and smog test centers. I would also consider small gyms. However, I am not particularly concerned with the type of business. I will consider anything up to $250,000. I am looking for businesses that are netting at least 40% of the asking price, after accounting for what it would cost for a manager to do whatever the owner does now. My intention is to partner with someone who will run the business. For this reason, I am particularly interrested in absentee-owned businesses that are currently bringing in a good net income. If the current manager is interested, I would like to partner with him or her. As I have a good income independent of the business, my hope is that my income will serve to help guarantee a loan. My involvement in the business will primarily be marketing."  For more info and contact information regarding this business buyer please log into your BizBen Account.

I am looking to buy a bar, primarily with a 48 license, but would consider a beer bar with no food requirement. It must be located in Los Angeles County. I have $100K for a down payment, however I am interested in determining an appropriate down payment through negotiations, for either a larger or smaller amount. I require an owner's benefit of at least $55K a year, and the business must produce enough to cover any loan payments I've incurred from its purchase. The price ranges I've been searching are between $100k to $500k, but I am looking for a stable business, with steady cash flow and income. If the business is outside of my price criteria, I would be interested in negotiating a range of possible financing options. I am most interested in seller financing, but should this not be viable, I have other means of financing. I have not been pre-qualified for SBA financing, but will be inquiring. I am able to present a personal financial statement and background letter to interested sellers. My background is varied and this will be my first time buying a business. I am very motivated and hope to be running my new business with in six months. I currently reside in the South Bay of Los Angeles.
