Explanation of Business Listings Headings:
FULL PRICE – The full consideration being asked for the business by the seller. This includes cash, notes, assumable obligations, etc.
DOWN PAYMENT – The minimum amount of cash being asked for by the seller of the business. This is usually exclusive of any financial obligations of the Seller (if any) that are assumed by the Buyer.
ANNUAL GROSS SALES – The gross sales volume reported by the Seller for the most recently available 12 month period.
ADJUSTED NET INCOME OR SELLER’S DISCRENTIONARY EARNINGS (SDE) – This is a calculation showing the cash flow generated by the business. The process adds to the net income any expenses that are discretionary to the Seller. Typical “add backs” are the Seller’s compensation, including benefits, depreciation, non-recurring or unusual expenses, installment payments on furniture, fixtures and equipment that will be paid in full and transferred to the Buyer at closing and certain “non essential” business expenses. This is also known as Seller Discretionary Earnings (SDE).
OTHER DEFINITIONS:
