Recurring revenue is your cheapest lever. Moving from 15% to 30% under contract would add roughly $560K of enterprise value at your current EBITDA — without selling a single additional job.

Illustrative only — not an appraisal, offer, or guarantee of value. Real multiples are set by diligence, customer concentration, fleet and property treatment, working capital pegs, and market conditions at the time of sale. Two businesses with identical EBITDA routinely clear very different numbers. Use this to understand which levers matter, not to price a transaction.

These figures are planning estimates, not a valuation, quote, or financial advice. Every business is different — use the output to frame the conversation, then check it against your own books.
