Built by an M&A professional who spent years sourcing deals on the buy side. I built ExitBench because sellers deserve the same information buyers have.
Market Timing
Monitoring and inspection contracts are pulling 6-8x EBITDA from PE buyers right now. If your recurring revenue is strong, you could see north of 10x.
30+ platform buyers and PE firms are competing for fire and life safety companies. Pye-Barker alone has bought over 200. When buyers compete, sellers get better terms.
Every acquisition shrinks the pool of independent companies left to buy. Rate hikes or regulatory shifts could cool multiples fast. Owners who move now lock in peak pricing.
Platform Features
Your company's value based on real comps in fire and life safety. Not a generic SBA calculator. Not a guess.
Know which PE firms and strategics are buying companies like yours, what they're paying, and what they care about.
See what moves your multiple up or down: recurring revenue mix, customer concentration, contract backlog, and more.
Track who's buying, what multiples are doing, and when conditions are best to go to market.
Active Acquirers
When you are ready, ExitBench connects qualified sellers with a curated network of active acquirers. You control if and when that happens.
