How much do manufacturing business owners earn?
Manufacturing business owners report median annual sales of $939,301 and annual owner earnings of $213,000. These figures are based on businesses that have listed their annual revenue and seller's discretionary earnings.
How do I value a manufacturing business?
Valuing a manufacturing business involves considering several factors, including annual sales, profit, growth (or decline) trends, and demographic trends of the local market.

Revenue multiples among manufacturing businesses listed for sale range from 0.50 to 1.10, with the median at 0.75. Earnings multiples range from 2.40 to 4.23, with the median at 3.12.
