Exit Analysis

Hybrid Shopify E-commerce & Dropshipping Store changed hands at a 2.4× profit multiple, right around the 2.5× median of the 105 deals in this database that disclosed both price and profit. A multiple in the median range is what the market pays for a steady business with no red flags and no standout premium either.

The $345,000 sale price puts it in the top quarter of the 623 deals with a disclosed price here, where the median is $21,000. Most indie acquisitions cluster well under the headline numbers founders read about, which is exactly why a real distribution is more useful than an average.

This database tracks 117 E-commerce exits, and the ones that disclosed a price sold at a median of $125,000. Category matters more than founders expect: buyers apply different discount rates to a content business, a mobile app and a B2B tool even at identical revenue.
