Incumbent officers will remain with the firm if desired.

The financials do not include the officer's replacment salaries, which amount to an estimated $380k.

This sale is not a traditional SBA sale for several reason. It may qualify for an established operator that is already in the industry, or a buyer with appropriate industry experience that will inject 30% - 40% down in order to satisfy an SBA lender’s debt service coverage ratio requirements.

Business Operation

Expansion Potential:

Fortunately for a buyer, the firm has no shortage of client demand and is positioned to expand beyond its existing geographic footprint and service offering. Since this company is often contacted before an architect is selected, it is estimated that an architectural firm that hopes to establish or grow their hospitality practice could benefit the most in an acquisition, as they would not only enjoy the first look at projects that they may not otherwise have access to, but they would stand to walk into a revenue stream that has historically been up to twice the interior design fees. Stated another way, if this opportunity generates $3.5M in design fees, a buyer that’s an architect may have access to up to $7.0M in potential new billings.

The hospitality procurement business does not engage in any form of marketing or outreach to attract stand-alone clients. Rather, they solely cater to design client work. An opportunity exists for management to dramatically expand the front of front of house purchasing and supply company.

Competition / Market:

While competition exists, this 50+ year-old firm is an industry incumbent and boasts a blue-chip name in the hospitality industry. Their staff’s skill set and the company’s reputation place them in a select category, providing the firm a unique competitive advantage that industry entrants cannot replicate, which includes ‘last look’ opportunities that others don’t enjoy access to. Hospitality client’s typical 5-6 year facility ‘refresh’ and 10-12 year location remodel cycles provide the firm a somewhat predictable recurring revenue base. It is estimated that 60% of revenues are from new tenant improvements with 40% derived from remodels.
