This week's deal is a small, decades-old Canadian distributor of measurement and control equipment for the oil and gas industry, based in rural Alberta. The company does about $2.75M in revenue and $208K in EBITDA (possibly CAD), offering pressure, flow, and temperature monitoring tools—plus parts and calibration support—to over 200 recurring customers across North America.

Key Highlights:
- Revenue: $2.75M | EBITDA: $208K (2026 estimates)
- Location: Rural Alberta, Canada; low customer concentration
- Likely just 1-2 operators, mostly parts distribution, not services
- Potential upside through long-overdue price increases
- Brokered by Generational Equity, with discussion on their practices

The hosts dive into a fascinating Generational Equity listing: a $41M revenue precious metals buyer with projected $6M EBITDA for 2025. With over 15 years in operation and locations across the Eastern U.S., the business buys gold, silver, coins, diamonds, and more directly from consumers, then flips those assets to refineries, retailers, or via eBay. Their proprietary ERP and X-ray fluorescence tech help optimize resale and manage inventory—but the model relies heavily on market prices and velocity.

Key Highlights:
- Projected 2025 Revenue: $41M; Projected EBITDA: $6M (15% margin)
- Operates consumer-facing storefronts buying and flipping precious metals
- Uses proprietary ERP and X-ray fluorescence tech for pricing and inventory
- Regulatory red flags, cash-heavy business, possible money laundering risks
- SBA financing unlikely; creative deal structure or all-equity required

In this episode, the hosts dive into a Florida-based SaaS company in the real estate sector that's priced to sell—but bleeding revenue.

- Serving real estate brokerages with e-sign and transaction management tools
- -17% YoY revenue decline raises red flags
- Customer churn sits at 1–3% monthly

This week, Bill D’Alessandro and Mills Snell examine a $10.5M listing for a luxury treehouse resort in Ohio. Featuring 135 acres of private land, multiple elevated cabins, spa-style amenities, and potential for weddings and corporate retreats, this property blends short-term rental cash flow with serious real estate value—or so it claims.

Key Highlights:
- Asking price: $10.5M, including 135 forested acres with river frontage
- No revenue or EBITDA disclosed—possible sign of distress
- Multiple luxury treehouse cabins, marketed as a premium retreat
- Significant risk tied to Airbnb dependence, occupancy rates, and seasonality
- Hosts debate whether it's a hidden gem or a financial landmine

In this episode, the hosts break down a $34M revenue heavy equipment dealership in Western Canada doing $9.2M in EBITDA — a high‑growth, high‑margin, possibly monopolistic business — and question why it’s for sale, if it’s truly a “license to print money,” and whether a U.S. buyer could even touch it.

In this episode, the Acquisitions Anonymous crew — Michael, Bill, Heather, and guest Josh Thomason — explore one of the most eye‑popping deals they've seen: a Western Canada-based industrial equipment dealership with $34M in projected 2025 revenue and $9.2M EBITDA. The business serves over 700 clients across construction, forestry, recycling, and oil field reclamation sectors, offering equipment sales, rentals, parts, transport, fabrication, and even financing. With a 26% CAGR over the past 3 years and 30%+ EBITDA margins, this is not your average dealer — it might be a monopolistic goldmine.

Key Highlights:
- Heavy equipment dealer with $34M projected revenue and $9.2M EBITDA
- Product lines include crushing, screening, conveyors, shredders & wash plants
- Strong customer base: 700+ accounts, 84% repeat business, low concentration
- Growth: 26% CAGR over 3 years, with diverse income from sales, rentals, and parts
- Risks: brand dependence, dealership transferability, cross-border complexity for U.S. buyers

In this episode, the hosts dig into a $20M revenue government contracting business that’s veteran-owned and focused on procurement for defense and healthcare — debating contract stickiness, declining revenue, and whether the business is even transferable without the founder’s special status.

The hosts break down a fascinating (and complicated) government contracting opportunity: a Southern US-based “consulting” business that’s more accurately a supply chain procurement facilitator with $18M–$20M in revenue and a sticky niche in defense manufacturing support. It operates under a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) designation, allowing it to secure federal contracts with competitive advantages — but only if the owner qualifies.

Key Highlights:
- ~$20M revenue, ~10% margin business with $58M in future contracts
- Services include sourcing, procurement, logistics, and staffing for federal clients
- SDVOSB status is essential — and may limit who can actually acquire the company
- Potential earnings dip in 2025 raises red flags around contract loss or non-recurring revenue
- Working capital intensity and transferability challenges make seller financing attractive

The hosts take on one of the more exotic deals ever featured on Acquisitions Anonymous: a pair of sister companies offering luxury limo services in Dubai. With $3.5M in annual revenue and $1.5M in net cashflow, the $6.9M asking price reflects a 4.6× multiple. The fleet includes Rolls Royces, the clientele includes embassies and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, and the operational moat includes tight regulation, driver visa restrictions, and limited market entry for competitors.

Key Highlights:
- Price & Performance: $6.9M ask, $3.5M revenue, $1.5M net cashflow (~4.6× multiple)
- Moat: RTA licensing, driver visa control, and regulatory barriers create high exclusivity
- Fleet: Includes luxury vehicles like Rolls Royce limos; possible asset-backed financing play
- Risk Factors: Insider-only licenses, regulatory uncertainty, and transition instability
- Solution Pitch: Keep founders onboard with a minority rollover to maintain licensing edge

In this installment of Acquisitions Anonymous, Bill and Michael are joined by Capital Pad co‑founder Travis Jamison to review an eight‑year‑old digital marketing agency focused on lead generation and strategic advertising for legal firms. With nearly $2M in revenue and ~50% year‑over‑year SDE growth, the agency boasts roughly $1M in income at ~50% net margins, 65 active clients on retainer, and no concerning client concentration. The seller has built a team of about 10 people, works only 20 hours a week, and the business is SBA‑eligible — though with a caveat around debt coverage if the new owner wants to draw a salary.

Key Highlights:
- Business Size & Growth: ~$2M revenue, ~50% net margins, ~47% year‑over‑year SDE growth.
- Model: Digital marketing agency specializing in legal firm lead generation and retainers.
- Client Base: ~65 active clients averaging ~$3,200/mo each with no heavy concentration risk.
- SBA Notes: Eligible for SBA lending, but high multiple means max leverage might preclude owner salary.
- Risks Noted: Changing digital marketing landscape, debt coverage concerns, founder dependency on relationships.
