Looking for help evaluating a SaaS deal

by a searcher from Worcester Polytechnic Institute

1 week ago

I've got a SaaS deal I'm looking at and the multiple is higher than others I've seen in the same revenue range (approx $1M).  I like the business but want to make sure I'm making a good offer.  Looking to connect with someone who has experience evaluating similar deals that could give some feedback.

Thanks,
Jason

Depends on your funding source. I've heard from people don't pay more than 2x.
