EXIT ACCELERATION—> BUSINESS VALUATION

Phase 1 of 6

Know what your
business is
actually worth

Before you can plan an exit, you need a real number — not a gut feeling, not a broker's hope price. EAP delivers a rigorous, market-calibrated valuation built on contractor-specific data.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

A valuation built for your industry

General business valuations miss what matters most in contracting: recurring revenue quality, crew stability, customer concentration, and the value of transferable relationships. Our approach accounts for all of it.

  • Earnings normalization and EBITDA recasting to reflect true owner economics

  • Contractor-specific revenue multiple analysis by trade, geography, and growth profile

  • Customer concentration and revenue durability scoring

  • Workforce and key-person risk assessment

  • Assets, equipment, fleet, and inventory valuation

  • Market comparables from recent contractor M&A transactions

  • Preliminary value gap analysis with improvement roadmap

A financial report displaying a sample valuation output with normalized EBITDA of $847,000, an applied multiple range of 4.2x to 5.8x, and an indicated enterprise value between $3.6 million and $4.9 million.
