Where This One Sits

How much revenue recurs?

How concentrated are the customers?

What happens when the owner leaves for a month?

How clean are the books?

Do the licenses, leases and contracts transfer?

Nothing answered yet, so there is no reading. This does not default to the middle: a midpoint shown for a blank form would say your business is average when you have not told it anything.

The drivers that move the number in this trade specifically are in the full Convenience Stores & Gas Stations guide. The picker holds every trade whose cited band is a multiple of one earnings figure; the 13 priced on cap rates, collections, revenue or two bases at once are named with their reasons rather than left out silently. Every cited band, with its drivers and source, is listed below on this page.

What Moves the Multiple

EBITDA bands run 3.67x to 4.38x and sites with real estate trade higher (into 7x to 9x); the inside-sales-to-fuel profit mix, foodservice development, fuel supply contract, and the environmental status of the underground tanks decide where a store lands.
