12. Private Equity has noticed your roll up has grown and you now have one large efficient
company. This gives your firm a competitive advantage in that you now source raw

in that you do not require 3 CEO’s or 3 COO’s or 3 CFO’s, you only need 1 of each. They
are impressed. You also increased pricing on the finished goods you sell.
Unfortunately, after four years of running in a tough economy you did not increase
revenue one penny, rather, you only captured the inefficiencies (add-backs).
13. You decide to sell the roll up for multiple of 5x based on the totals in question 11.
