For those actively looking at deals: what are you seeing in terms of EBITDA multiples for mid service businesses (~$50M revenue)? Are multiples tightening? What are buyers looking for (asset light models, recurring revenue, etc.)?

It’s whatever you think it’s worth however, 3-5 times is standard. 50M plus could be 3-7 times. The multiple increase causation varies. In my case it’s due to international companies getting involved. Anything above 6 is overpriced. Me personally, anything over 5 is overpriced. Cashflow is all that matters….

^redacted might be able to share what they're seeing in EBITDA Multiples this year. Bonus points for ~50M deals. That's pretty big for the Searchfunder Community.
