NDA: https://forms.office.com/r/aV20k6gL9y I am the seller (this is direct) and we are selling to focus on several larger assets in our portfolio that we need to spend significant time and resources on. Ownership currently spends###-###-#### minutes per week on this company (100% remote, just touching base with the management team). This company has ZERO sales function and all jobs come from just answering the phone when it rings. Located just outside of Charlotte, North Carolina, the Company has a 40-year proven history of highly-skilled metal fabricating with a variety of materials including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.​ They provide custom fabricated projects including, but not limited to, Air Washers, Air Handling Units, Foam Panels, Energy Recovery Systems, Dryers / Ovens / Furnaces, Plenums & Duct Systems, Dust Filtration Equipment, Gas Turbine Filtration, Mining Equipment, Humidification Systems, Oil & Water Mist Eliminator Systems, Acoustic Enclosures, Scrubbers & Spray Systems, Evaporative Cooling Systems, and more.​ The company enjoys a large and diverse set of active customers serving multiple industries, and enters 2026 with a health pipeline of approx. $6MM in outstanding quotes for future potential jobs. The existing management and entire team is highly seasoned and is expected to remain with the company after a transaction. Current owners are absentee.​ We are only interested in speaking with direct buyers and are open to various structures for the right buyer.

If the owner spends 30 minutes per week, how is it that they need to sell so they have time to focus on more important things?

I’ve operated a few of similar businesses. Interested in discussing the opportunity. Curious about the motivation/reason to sell. Also EBITDA looks high, curious if ownership draws or salary is also taken into account in this number.
