If you are considering selling an environmental services business, you may be wondering what would be the best way to do that? Environmental Services businesses with revenues of $700,000 to $70 Million are desirable businesses for potential buyers. We have sold 3 in the last 14 months alone. With the effects of climate change becoming more evident comes the need for more businesses to provide products and services that benefit the environment. We have experience selling a wide variety of companies that help the environment, including construction firms that provide energy-efficient solutions to save on their client’s energy usage and reduce costs. Synergy Business Brokers has been selling Businesses that benefit the environment for over 16 years.
Sustainable Energy Solutions is a company that cost-effectively reduced energy costs with testing, thermal imaging analysis, Energy Star, Green Building requirements, building code verification, and certification services, including LEED certifications, and more. They provided services to general contractors, architects, remodelers, HVAC contractors, and homeowners. We had multiple potential buyers, and the best offer came in slightly under the asking price. The buyer was motivated and saw the company’s value, so he was willing to raise his proposal to the full asking price and was able to get SBA financing for the purchase.
Our client specializes in environmental consulting such as environmental assessments, environmental inspections and planning, and sustainability guidelines and analysis. The business was based in Texas and served clients nationwide.
Mid-Lakes Spray Foam company provides energy star insulation for residential and commercial customers, saving them energy and money on their Heating and Cooling bills. The potential buyer did not need bank financing and could pay over 80% of the purchase price at closing, with the seller financing the balance.
Gurney Water Treatment is a business that specialized in water treatment services for both residential and commercial customers. This company provides water and energy-saving products and solutions to its clients.
A Civil Engineering company that designed environmentally friendly buildings with energy-saving construction, including LEED certifications and sustainable energy use.
Envirostar is a company that specializes in soil excavation, removal, and replacement, mold inspection and remediation, and oil tank removal and installation. Multiple buyers expressed interest, and we negotiated terms that worked for seller and buyer, allowing the seller to transition into retirement.
Synergy Business Brokers is a top 10 business broker in the nation with a pool of potential buyers for a variety of companies in the industry, including:
We sell companies that provide environmental cleanup services and manufacturers and distributors of products and supplies used in the industry. We have potential buyers looking for companies that provide:
There is a lot of opportunity for mergers and acquisitions within the industry as well as potential buyers from outside the industry. Within the industry, some environmental product manufacturers are interested in acquiring companies that manufacture other products to expand their offerings. The same holds true for distributors that can pick up additional customers and products that they supply. Service-based companies can grow through acquisition by increasing the geographic area that they cover and get the additional staff that has valuable expertise.
Outside the industry, we have private equity groups and wealthy individuals interested in acquiring companies in the environmental remediation sector. In addition, engineering companies, construction firms, and other companies often want to purchase a firm that adds to their ability to provide more services with the acquisition of a profitable company.
Synergy Business Brokers can help navigate all of these options for you and allow you to focus on continuing to run your company. We’ll only get you involved when we have someone that is a good fit. You can then meet to determine if there is the right chemistry and meeting of the minds with price and terms. Our goal is always to get multiple offers that give you the most comprehensive option in terms of price, terms, and the desirability of the buyer.
Below are some of the types of companies that we have buyers for:
We will review your financial information and find out more about your customers and employees and what makes your business unique. Working with you to identify your total income, including your salary, perks, and benefits, we can determine the overall business worth. We focus on selling companies with an annual income (including salary, perks, and benefits) of $250,000 to $20Million+.
Once we’ve gathered enough information, we can provide you with a possible asking price for your business. There is no fee for our services until your business is sold.
We will use the information you provide to develop a marketing document that provides enough information to get people interested while at the same time protecting the confidentiality of your business. Once we have someone interested, we will have them sign a nondisclosure agreement and see that they are qualified before providing your business’s details.
All of this may sound daunting, but it doesn’t have to be, especially when you have a business sales expert like Synergy Business Brokers that have sold Green businesses and knows what buyers are looking for. We have specific experience and knowledge regarding selling environmentally friendly companies — knowledge you’ll need if you want to sell fast and get the best price.
