Located at the best helicopter training airport in LA. Partnership separation and absentee ownership is motivating the sale. The sellers have done the heavy lifting over a decade and have other interests and responsibilities. At this time, though the business is quite profitable and positioned for significant growth, its physical assets and certifications are valued as much or more than the cash flow (from a replacement vs commercial lender perspective). That said, after an uncontrollable and very unfortunate industry maintenance issue in 2023, 2024 and 2025 cash flow has caught up. Sellers are motivated but the business is growing, the fiscal reality is comfortable, and the future is bright. This is an established good business with a solid team in place. Regardless, the buyer will need to be well capitalized and/or have immediate experience and significant cash available for continued investment to grow. Physical Assets to be sold together: Two owned R44 Helicopters and two R22…along with a 2 yr old full motion flight simulator – estimated value at $1,400,000. FAA Part 135 (Charter Full certificate). The Part 135 Full Certificate is the highest level and enables flexibility like traveling interstate. Part 61/141 Flight School). Chief Pilot, Director of Operations and Director of Maintenance positions are required to maintain the full certificate. Part 91 LOA for air tours. SEVIS certification received effective 6/1/23 (student exchange visitor program which will enable company to issue i20 and M1 Visas). This represents a very significant growth opportunity for the future. Certificate and Certifications – estimated value $700,000. Cut the line! These certifications and certificates take many years (6-8) to secure and newcomers to the 141-flight school side can’t even apply until business has been operational for 2 years. NEW Hanger: Investment $!00,000 Helicopter parts: estimated value $50,000 Various other physical assets: 7- person golf cart, mobile fuel and pumping system and other hanger equipment. Estimated value. $10,000 Hanger FFE: estimated value $25,000. Company is the ONLY operator in California to have the Guimbal G2 Cabri advanced trainer and the only school in the So. CA area to have an FAA accredited helicopter flight training device (simulator). Zero accidents on record. 100% safety record. All processes and systems (including SMS safety) are fully documented. Training manuals exist for every role. No single employee “IS” the company. CEO/Chief Pilot owners have been largely absentee but will be available as needed part-time to assist transition. The CEO may be available after the sale in a part-time advisory capacity. The Chief Pilot) will assist with a transition, but there must be a clear path for complete exit in a reasonable timeframe. Current Staff: Operations Manager, Assistant Chief Pilot, Front Desk Admin, 4 Pilots, mostly absentee owners (both Pilots). The critical gap you will need to fill is that of Chief Pilot. Currently Nina is the Chief Pilot and wishes to exit the business following a reasonable transition period. She also serves as the Chief Instructor. The Assistant Chief Instructor/Pilot could get to Chief Instructor reasonably soon. It will take longer for him to meet Chief Pilot requirements. Current revenue streams: Flight Training, Charter, Tours, Aerial Photography and videography, Gender Reveal (first in the country to make it into a viable commercial product), Aircraft Management. Events and ground-based training facilitated by NEW 4500 sqft hanger and new flight simulator; industry galas, company team building, kids parties and weddings. Marketing: Social Media (Largest flight school Instagram in LA and proven income generator), Facebook, Youtube, Tiktok, LinkedIn SEO, Ad Campaigns, Publications, Website, Trip Advisor, Fare Harbor (on-line sales) and more…LA Helicopters.com, Gifting website, exclusive supplier to www.luxuryhelicoptertours.com, 100 5 star yelp reviews, top of page SEO on many relevant keywords. Significant investment and operational efficiencies have set the next owner operator up for accelerated growth in revenue and earnings beyond 2024. Capital investment in 2021 & 2022 resulted in owned vs. leased helicopters, though there is a 1 leased and 1 managed helicopter in the 2025 mix. The change in strategy resulted in significant annual expense reduction and the NEW hanger and flight simulator are now adding new income streams in general and opportunities to generate income when the weather isn’t appropriate for flying. Bring or earn your pilot license, hire more pilots, or train and employ them to grow the business to its potential. Revenue History: 2018 $1.2, 2019 $1.3M, 2020 $1M and 2021 $1.68M, 2022 $1.36M, 2023 $1.12M, 2024 $1.32M, 2025 Jan-June $714k. 2024 SDE $493K.

Sport And Work Boat Manufacturing - 60 Years
$ 1,295,000
CF : $ 129,556
This celebrated Southern California based high performance sport and work boat manufacturer boasts nearly 60 years of goodwill. The second-generation family-owned company’s watercrafts, which are between 20 and 42 feet in length, are fixtures in the professional diving, fishing, surfing, research, patrol and sheriff departments due to their durability and ability to remain highly stable in heavy swells. As a result of their utility and functionality, these vessels are ever present in offshore waters from Alaska to Mexico and Hawaii. The company sells direct to the consumer and regularly maintains a 1-2 year deposit-based waitlist. This business operates out of a production yard with an office, and several enclosed materials rooms and work sheds. The office and yard lease for $6,805 per month on a secure lease with options to be negotiated. All of the company’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and goodwill be included in the sale. The seller will agree to work for a reasonable transition prior, and may consider remaining the ‘face’ of the company for an agreed upon period depending on the overall offer and terms. While the commercial boating industry is a competitive one, few manufacturers could hope to have the name recognition and respect that this company has established in its vessels. In fact, despite being build constructed and marketed for their functionality, the company has seen a dramatic increase in well healed leisure boat clients that appreciate the boat’s durability and performance characteristics in the large swells near the Channel Islands, Alaska and Hawaii. Needless to say, few category competitors can claim to possess comparable hull designs, craftsmanship or customized options that allow this firm to attract leisure boaters to their commercial crafts with few amenities! New management may take this legendary company, which is the epitome of a mom-and-pop lifestyle business, in any number of directions to realize its significant growth potential. To begin, the company has operated at near capacity for its entire existence. In fact, customers anticipate a 1-2 year waitlist, and know they can only order limited units at a time due to customer demand coupled with the production yard’s limitations. Historically, they can only accommodate 12 to 24 boats per year based on order sizes (they can do 2-20’ boats per month, but a 40’ unit may take over a year). With a new conversion facility, supply can not only be streamlined, but significantly expanded at a reduced cost. Also, each craft is custom made, which necessarily impacts efficiencies and costs. New operators may wish to continue in this tradition, but they may also carry an inventory the most popular ‘staple’ models or they may choose to outsource their unique fiberglass hull production component - where an estimated 25% cost savings may be realized if the hulls, which constitute 40% of the cost (at 50% of the man hours), are created via vacuum infusion injection molding instead of a manual method. Additional savings may be realized by purchasing key materials, resin and components in bulk. From a sales perspective, the company hasn’t truly actively promote its vessels as they have lacked the capacity to meet demand. If they had a larger production facility and could carry inventory they could attend professional and personal craft trade shows, establish a retail presence by opening a showroom or establishing a dealer network. If they were capitalized, they could not only stock ready-made units, but they also could self-finance orders (rather than rely on progress payments or commercial loans) which local municipality and government contracts require. Being capitalized or having a sufficient credit facility, coupled with the ability to scale production, also opens the door for local and federal agencies (e.g. harbor patrol, fish and wildlife, the coast guard, etc.). that approach them to purchase several units at a time, without progress payments. Commercial fishing, diving, harbor patrol and other clients have expressed an interest in leasing units, however, the company does not have the conversion facility or capital to cover construction costs, let alone have the bandwidth to set-up and manage a lease program. New management may launch a specific division to focus on this. For some of these clients whose needs are harbor, bay or coastal based, new operators may also consider developing a lighter, less formidable bay boat hull design. Finally, since mass production hasn’t been possible, no efforts have been made to become an approved vendor for federal, military or Department of Defense contracts. If the company were an approved vendor, or if were owned by a qualifying party favored in such contracts (female, minority, veteran) additional avenues for growth may exist.
