The company today, in its own words. A leading Houston-based glass and glazing contractor, founded in 1990, that has grown into one of the largest glass and glazing contractors in the nation, with offices in Houston and Denver.

The sale

How it ran

Dynamic Glass was sold in March 2014 for just over $17 million to Platform Partners, a regional investment group that buys profitable companies with strong cash flow and a management team that stays.

That is the kind of buyer a well-run company in a fragmented industry attracts: one that pays for the platform and keeps the people who built it.

What decided the price

What buyers look at in a manufacturing company

Adjusted EBITDA, not revenue

Earnings are recast to remove owner compensation above market, personal expenses and one-off items. Every add-back needs a paper trail, or a buyer strikes it out.

Equipment condition and age

A buyer prices the capital expenditure they will face in the first three years. Deferred maintenance comes straight off the offer.

Real estate, in or out

Owning the building can raise the total consideration, and it can also complicate the deal. It is usually cleaner to sell the operating company and lease the property back.

The full list, and who the buyers are: Selling a manufacturing company in Texas.
