What this means for business owners

For owner-managed FM businesses, current market conditions remain supportive, but outcomes depend heavily on preparation. Buyers place increasing emphasis on contract structure, systems, management depth and compliance capability. Early planning allows owners to address potential value constraints, improve operational clarity and present the business more effectively ahead of any transaction. Different buyers have different priorities, and achieving the right outcome often depends on matching the business to the right acquirer.
