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.

The business survived COVID while the industry shrunk with competitors closing. They implemented, and then quickly pivoted away from, an expansion strategy late 2023. The pivot significantly increased SDE due to decreased expenses - even though revenue was down.

Printers recently refurbished. Long term independent maintenance professional has been involved with the care of equipment for many years.
