About this business
Corporate finance boutique in suburban Coventry, advising on company sales, management buyouts and business valuations since 2003. It works from leased offices with a team of 7. Fee income has fallen from £1.1m in 2021 to £930k as deal volumes have softened, and EBITDA is down 19% to £218k. The margin is still high at about 23%. Nothing about the advice depends on the building, and the practice could be folded into an existing firm elsewhere. The asking price is £1m.
Key investment highlights
- Margin of about 23%
- Trading since 2003
- Team of 7 on leased premises
- Could be merged into another practice
Reason for sale
