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 Paving & Asphalt guide. The picker holds every trade whose cited band is a multiple of one earnings figure; the 15 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

Owner-operated pavers run 2x to 3.8x SDE; on EBITDA a project-heavy book sits at 4x to 5x while a recurring-maintenance-heavy one reaches 6x to 8x (all-transaction average ~5x to 6.5x); recurring sealcoating share, materials pass-through, fleet, bonding, and season set the position.
