Accounting, consulting, and agency firms depend on client relationships; heavy owner-dependence reduces value.
Professional Services are usually valued on SDE / EBITDA, with multiples generally roughly 2x–4x (client concentration is a key risk factor). Treat this as a starting point, not an appraisal — your actual multiple depends on size, margins, owner-dependence, customer concentration, and recent trend.
