DealTeam is working with an private equity firm looking for an Owner-CEO to acquire a 40-year-old commercial landscaping platform in Florida. The business does $2M+ in EBITDA at a 28% margin with a strong municipal and commercial client base. Please apply to via this link if you're interested - https://dealteamjobs.fillout.com/t/mes1pfNGVius Currently 75% of the business is project-based, but there is a clear opportunity to shift that mix. The company gets first bid on every maintenance contract from its project work, but prior ownership has stayed away from maintenance. Other aspects that make this deal attractive: - Conservative EBITDA multiple with low leverage - Founder stays 12 months, GM locked in for 3 years - Multiple expansion upon exit: entering at 3-4x, targeting 6-7x by shifting the revenue mix - Opportunity to do add-on acquisitions sourced by the sponsor
