Value Drivers in Manufacturing

Many injection molding and metal forming company owners and investors ask us about valuation. There is no quick or easy answer. The value of any custom component manufacturer depends on a multitude of factors, including:

• Size
• Profitability, both current and historical
• Customers, including concentration
• End markets
• Growth opportunities and projections
• Management team
• Employees
• Location
• Curb appeal of the plant, both exterior and interior
• Capacity utilization
• Equipment and capabilities

Transaction multiples have been steadily rising in recent years and now is a better time to sell a manufacturing business than at any point in the last 25 years. We would be happy to discuss the value of your plastics or metals business/investment.
