Murphy Business Sales - Edison Office

Did you know? Small Business M&A Industry statistics suggest that 80% of listed businesses never sell. Did you ever wonder WHY? Here are the results of an Industry survey of Business Brokers published by Business Brokerage Press, Inc. on why "Pending" sales did not close. These were businesses with actual offers that could not get across the finish line. The chart attributes the issues to larger buckets; however, several more issues arise during Due Diligence that we learn about across the hundreds of deals our firm closes annually. I will dive deeper into some of these issues during a few upcoming presentations, starting with one this Thursday morning at 7 a.m. at a meeting with Hawks Networking.

This is another insightful article from NJBIZ by Marty Daks on business valuation and the value of experience and expertise when selling a business. https://lnkd.in/erGPNcz5 Entrepreneurs are increasingly turning to business brokers to navigate the complex process of selling their businesses. This trend is driven by an aging business owner demographic seeking retirement, favorable market conditions, and a desire to capitalize on post-pandemic business growth. 📈 While selling a business has evolved with digital advancements, human expertise remains crucial for accurate valuations and successful transactions. Several factors influence a business's sale price, including financial health, market trends, growth potential, and unique value proposition. Additionally, the type of buyer and deal structure can significantly impact valuation. Fluctuations in interest rates and shifts in industry preferences can also affect deal pricing. Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a tool to assist in valuations. However, due to the limited available data for private companies, human judgment, and experience remain indispensable in interpreting complex information and understanding each business's unique aspects. Every business is unique, and its valuation reflects its distinct brand, assets, functions, and operations. There are no simple answers regarding business valuation, underscoring the importance of expert guidance. 🤝  #BusinessBrokers #MergersAndAcquisitions #BusinessValuation #interestrates #expertise
