Sold. Specialty Transportation Group

This business for sale is a privately owned group of three specialty trucking divisions: Specialty Flatbed Trucking Company, Full-service Truck Repair, and a Transportation Brokerage. This Company operates in the transportation market with its revenue generated distributed relatively evenly amongst the three operating divisions.

Expansion Potential
The Company is well positioned to capitalize on its excellent industry reputation and the positive prospects forecast for the industry. The Company’s 22-year history of providing superior transportation services and trucking repair for its customers will be the key to its continued growth and success. Full-year 2012 revenue is projected at $5.5 million. This positive outlook is well supported by solid year-to-date May 2012 financial results and by strong relationships between company management and its largest customers.

Pro forma growth and profitability can be accelerated by the factors outlined below:

Increased marketing efforts: The Company’s modest sales and marketing efforts to date provide an outstanding opportunity for new management to effectively accelerate growth over a very short period. Investment in and development of an expanded sales staff to more effectively leverage a stellar reputation and turnkey capabilities would almost immediately accelerate sales growth beyond the levels presented herein.

Expand service capabilities: The maintenance operation has the opportunity to significantly increase business by offering road service to the broader market. The division presently only offers road service for existing customers. Offering this service would allow the division to potentially operate around the clock as current hours are limited to weekdays from 7am to 5pm. Additionally, the transportation division can expand its business by offering van freight services, which are more difficult than flatbed services, but very profitable.

Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
The Company operates in a competitive and highly fragmented industry. Industry participants range from small “mom and pop” operations to significantly larger and better-capitalized companies with broader service capabilities and geographic reach. Within this competitive landscape, the Company has been able to effectively differentiate itself on a number of fronts - comprehensive capabilities, a proven long-term track record, and an uncompromising focus on client service. Moreover, due to a flat organizational structure, the Company prides itself on being highly responsive to customers.
