SBA Event Rental Biz | $700K Equip | $180K-$400K SDE
Business Description
Highly established 40+ year event rental operator with strong brand recognition, deep-rooted customer relationships, and proven recurring demand.
Based on the last three years of filed tax returns, the business generated average annual revenue of approximately $807,223 and average annual Seller’s Discretionary Earnings of approximately $295,513.
Revenue:
2023: $1,000,734
2024: $834,156
2025: $586,780
Seller’s Discretionary Earnings:
2023: $404,604
2024: $302,232
2025: $179,704
The current slowdown is directly tied to the owner intentionally turning down work as he phases into retirement, not due to lack of demand. This creates immediate upside for a buyer prepared to step in, increase labor capacity, and capture meaningful existing demand already being declined.
The company is a trusted provider for large-scale, high-visibility events and has serviced nationally recognized brands, major productions, and government-related clients. Included in the sale is an estimated $700,000 in well-maintained, revenue-producing equipment and vehicles, including large-format tents, frame tents, tables, chairs, trailers, a box truck, and late-model vehicles, creating substantial hard-asset backing. The business also benefits from approximately 8,000 square feet of warehouse space secured at just $1,000 per month, creating a major cost advantage with extremely low occupancy overhead. Operations are streamlined through experienced long-tenured 1099 crews and established systems already in place, allowing for efficient execution with limited owner involvement in the field. Over 60% of the client base is repeat business, with consistent inbound demand and documented financials supporting a scalable platform for growth.
Offered at $900,000. Asking price is strongly supported by both the equipment value and the established cash-flowing operation. Seller has a realistic ability to liquidate the equipment independently for an estimated $700,000 and therefore has no practical reason to assume seller-financing risk. Realistically, this opportunity only makes sense as either an all-cash acquisition or SBA-backed transaction.
Minimum proof of funds requirement: $270,000 prior to seller calls or meetings.
Suggested SBA structure:
Purchase Price: $900,000
Down Payment: $200,000
Recommended Working Capital: $70,000
Serious and financially capable buyers only. NDA and proof of funds required prior to release of identifying information.
