Environmental Products Business For Sale

Business description

A well-invested and modern manufacturer of fabricated products for the environmental market is for sale. It distinctively employs integrated CNC component manufacture with Robotic-based fabrication. This makes it one of the lowest-cost producers in its sector and it is already contending for market leadership. Due to an unfortunately timed ambitious operational restructure undertaken just before its customers and market entered recession, there has been a period of lossmaking and financial resources have been depleted. The business has been returned to modest profits and the medium term outlook is very bright with profits of £0.5M on sales of £6M forecast for next year. Meantime however, cash flow is negative and this financial pressure is forcing the directors to invite outside investment by selling the shareholding. To obtain an early deal, the business is offered for £0.75M cash plus deferred profit share
