Five instruments. One answer: what your life's work is worth.
The same tools we bring to an engagement — an EBITDA modeler, a confidential deal vault, the tombstone record, our 32-week sale timeline, and the buyer universe map.
⚑ Synthetic model for orientation only — Pennsylvania lower-middle-market indicated multiples of 3.5x–7.5x EBITDA with scenario adjustments. Not a valuation, fairness opinion, or offer. Formal valuations are performed by our three CVAs under a separate engagement. A confidential consultation includes an initial valuation and estimated-proceeds analysis at no obligation — if waiting a year or two makes sense, we'll tell you that too.
⚑ Every card above is a completed MMCA engagement, blinded the way we market live deals. Company names are revealed only behind a confidentiality acknowledgment — the same gate our buyer list passes through. Teaser metrics shown in ranges; pairings verified.
| Year | Seller | Buyer | Sector | EV Band | Buyer Type | Geography | MMCA Role | Record |
|---|
⚑ 52 records: 26 verified seller–buyer pairings drawn from the firm's transaction record (Tracxn: 28 deals facilitated — 27 M&A, 1 funding; includes NoTubes → Zabel Companies, closed Jul 5, 2022 and the Surtech Industries conventional debt round) plus 26 synthetic records for filter demonstration. Indicative EV bands and years are shown for filtering and orientation only — a verified record confirms the seller–buyer pairing and MMCA's role, not a price.
⚑ Strong relationships with thousands of companies, private equity firms, family office groups, and high net worth individuals across the U.S. and internationally. Density figures are indicative of relationship coverage, not a live count. Strong position throughout Pennsylvania and the Mid-Atlantic; buyers and sellers nationwide and abroad.
We don't push a sale before you're ready. That's the whole point.
"Our approach is relationship-centered, with an unwavering commitment to do what is best for our clients. If waiting a year or two makes sense, we remain committed to working with you — offering advice to prepare the company for sale."

✕ The Typical Broker
- Pushes the idea of selling before you're ready
- Fees on top of fees, discovered mid-process
- Calls, emails, and texts at all hours — pressuring you to accept
- Your company becomes another name on a spreadsheet
- One buyer, one offer, take it or leave it
✓ The Murphy McCormack Way
- Feedback, initial valuation, and estimated-proceeds analysis first
- If waiting a year or two makes sense, we say so — and help you prepare
- Respectful of your time and life away from the office
- We listen to your needs and objectives, present ideas and solutions, and let you make the call
- Several offers, analyzed side-by-side — you choose the best, not the first
