What a buyer would ask 3
- One director on the registerA buyer's first question about a company run by one person is what happens to it if that person stops. It is usually the first thing priced.
- Everyone on the board is over 60There is no one on the register a buyer can see taking the business on. That is a discount if it stays that way and a negotiating point if it changes.
- No website on file against the companyThe first thing anyone does with a company number is look for the business behind it. Finding nothing is its own answer.
What a buyer would like 3
- 23 years of trading on fileLongevity is the cheapest evidence there is that the business is not one contract.
- Headcount grew from 9 to 11Growth a buyer can verify without asking you for anything.
- Debtor days better than three quarters of your tradeYours is 9 against 45 for the middle of 95 comparable companies.

A rough bracket, and why it is only that
0.4–0.9× sales£940k£2.1M
The turnover range is fitted on UK companies that did file one. The multiple is a published sector average from Dutch mid-market deals, not from your own numbers and not from your own market. Treat this as the opening bracket of a conversation, not a valuation.
