Core Growth Group has released a business exit planning guide for HVAC and plumbing company owners, outlining how early sale preparation can attract qualified buyers and support a stronger company valuation.

Marble Falls, United States, October 14, 2026 /NewsNetwork/ -- A new guide from Core Growth Group walks HVAC and plumbing company owners in Texas through the steps involved in preparing a business for sale, from strengthening financial records to reducing owner dependency, with the goal of supporting a stronger valuation and attracting more qualified buyers.

The guide addresses a gap that persists across the industry. According to the Exit Planning Institute’s 2023 National State of Owner Readiness Report, only 42% of business owners surveyed had a formal written transition plan for their company. For HVAC and plumbing owners whose retirement or long-term financial plans hinge on a successful sale, Core Growth Group says early preparation is a step that is frequently overlooked.
Core Growth Group identifies preparation as a step that owners frequently postpone because it requires time and effort without an obvious immediate return. Improving financial records, strengthening operations, and documenting business growth can make a company more attractive to prospective buyers while also supporting its current performance.
To illustrate the financial impact, Core Growth Group uses an earnings-based example: a company generating approximately $333,000 in annual earnings at a 3x multiple would produce a valuation near $1 million, while stronger documented performance could support a 4x multiple, pushing that figure above $1.3 million. Actual valuations vary based on the business and current market conditions.
Preparation also involves addressing weaknesses that may discourage buyers. Heavy owner involvement, inconsistent financial reporting, limited management capacity, and unclear growth prospects can create uncertainty during negotiations and due diligence.
Through its Grow, Prepare, Exit framework, Core Growth Group works with HVAC and plumbing owners to identify improvements before entering the market. The company notes that this preparation can involve outside support, allowing owners to continue managing daily operations while working toward a more acquisition-ready business.
“Preparation is often the step business owners overlook because it takes work and doesn’t always produce immediate results,” said Clint Evans, founder of Core Growth Group. “But that work can improve profitability, attract more qualified buyers, and ultimately increase the multiple and price an owner receives when selling their company.”

China’s exports grew last month at the fastest pace in almost any month since the end of the global financial crisis.
Dutch semiconductor equipment giant ASML expects China to account for about 20 per cent of its total sales this year, after seeing shipments to the market more than double during the previous quarter despite mounting US pressure for tighter export restrictions on less advanced chipmaking machinery.

That took China’s share of ASML’s...

The rapid and unbridled development of artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to disrupt the US economy in a way that is comparable to the “China shock” that displaced American workers, former US commerce secretary Gina Raimondo warns. Speaking at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum in New Delhi on Tuesday, she drew parallels between AI’s potential disruption to American jobs and the past impact of Chinese manufacturing competition on the US labour market. “In America, we’ve seen what...

Japanese Agriculture Minister Kazuo Yana said he tendered his resignation following allegations of possible vote-buying, lining him up to become the first minister in Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s government to quit over a scandal. “I apologise for causing such a huge inconvenience to those involved,” Yana said to reporters after submitting his resignation on Wednesday. He said he made the move out of concern for holding up parliament and his ministerial duties. Yana declined to comment on how...
A debate over tipping culture has erupted across the Indonesian resort island of Bali and beyond, triggered by a politician’s unfavourable comparison of domestic and foreign tourists. In a social media video, I Gusti Arya Wedakarna urged domestic tourists to “normalise giving tips in touristy places”, which he said was part of the island’s “ethics”. “Perhaps that’s the psychological reason why Balinese people are more excited about serving foreigners,” said Wedakarna, an Indonesian Regional...
