What decided the price

What buyers look at in a machine shop

Customer concentration

The most common discount in this sector. If one customer is a large share of revenue, buyers price the risk of losing it; long relationships and supply agreements reduce that.

Machines and their age

A buyer goes through the equipment list and prices the capital spending of the next three years. Well-maintained machines with service records hold value.

Certifications and approvals

ISO 9001, AS9100, ITAR registration and approved-supplier status take years to earn. They are often the reason a strategic buyer is interested at all.

The full list, and who the buyers are: Selling a machine shop in Texas.
