Buy or Sell an Architecture & Engineering Firm

The Architecture and Engineering (A&E) industry plays a central role in the construction and renovation industries, offering services that range from designing structures to solving complex engineering challenges. This sector is known for steady revenues and consistent profit margins, making it a reliable investment space. However, its performance is closely tied to economic conditions, and a potential recessionary environment could pose risks to long-term growth

The A&E sector presents robust opportunities, with numerous firms actively available for acquisition. Many of these businesses boast decades of expertise, loyal client bases, and specialized services such as structural engineering and planning, environmental consulting, HVAC engineering, and structural analysis.

If you are considering buying or selling an architecture and/or engineering business, it is important to understand how these businesses are valued and how they typically perform financially. To provide some context, we have aggregated A&E business for sale listings to surface average revenue and profit, and derive valuation multiples.

How do I value an Architecture and Engineering company?

Valuing an A&E firm involves considering several factors, including annual sales, profit, growth (or decline) trends, and demographic trends of the local market.

Revenue multiples among architecture and engineering companies listed for sale in the U.S. range from 0.56 to 1.15, with the median at 0.87. Earnings multiples range from 2.05 to 3.59, with the median at 2.77.
