Leadership Training Business with Outstanding Cash Flow

It has been a great 23 year run for this very successful leadership training business and the founder now looks forward to retirement and a successful transition to only its second owner.

The company has implemented a unique and successful training program that has contributed to the development of more than 7,000 strong and capable industry leaders. Attracting leaders from over 12 countries, the company’s programs have helped develop corporate leaders, non-profit executives, and government officials at all levels.

The Michigan business has a team of experienced and certified associates who assist in the implementation of training programs which include:

• In person and on demand programs

• Virtual programs

• Individual and group executive coaching

The company has a number of outstanding attributes including:

• Average revenue exceeding $1,500,000 in each of the past three years

• SDE (seller’s discretionary earnings - the historical, normalized cash flow available to pay an owner-operator and service debt) averaging a spectacular $930,000 over the same three- year period

• Large number of recurring customers

• Unique and proprietary product lines

• An established brand and an outstanding website which offers clients insight into the company’s multitude of product offerings.

The business is being offered at $2,800,000 which is a very attractive 3.0x multiple of SDE. The seller envisions a cash free, debt free asset sale in which he retains A/R and cash while retiring all liabilities.

1. A typical SBA deal for the business would include 10% buyer cash ($280,000), 10% Seller Note ($280,000), and a $2,240,000 SBA term loan.

2. The deal would result in a three-year average annual free cash flow to the buyer of an incredible $570,000. This is after bank debt and seller note payments.
