Margin is what moves this most. Two companies at AED 30M of revenue can be AED 15M apart on value, entirely on the strength of earnings and how clean they are.
Indicative only. Multiples are broad lower-mid-market ranges by sector; a real valuation depends on customer concentration, owner dependence, quality of earnings, contracted revenue and the buyer. This is not a valuation, an offer, or advice.

Time kills deals. So do retainers.
What selling a company this size looks like today, and what we changed.
The old way
- A monthly retainer before a single buyer is contacted.
- Buyers come from one partner's contact list.
- Materials in English only, then translated late.
- Offers arrive one at a time, so there is nothing to compare.
- Below AED 100M of revenue, most firms decline the mandate.
The Cession way
- AED 0 to start. We are paid when you close.
- Buyers screened across the Gulf, Europe and the diaspora.
- Teaser, IM and data room built in Arabic and English.
- Offers collected to one deadline and compared side by side.
- AED 5–100M is the band we were built for.
