Valuation context
An estimate from the illustrative Veterinary SDE band (Band source: NewHands teaching assumption — illustrative planning range, not a market transaction comp dataset), not an appraisal. Customer concentration was not on the listing, so that adjustment was left at zero.
Low
$1,608,000
Midpoint
$2,136,000
High
$2,808,000
Asking price is $86,000 below the midpoint estimate (4.27× trailing SDE).
- Start with the illustrative Veterinary SDE band (NewHands teaching assumption): 3.50× to 6.00×, midpoint 4.60×.
- Apply disclosed adjustments totaling -0.15 to each end of the band, then floor the multiple at 0.80×.
- Multiply seller's discretionary earnings of 480,000 by the adjusted band. That is the business value, not the real estate.
- Real estate is not included, so nothing is added after the multiple.
