Financial basis and assumptions

Annual revenue: AED 1,840,000. Net profit: AED 500,000.

Period: FY2025. Basis: Audited accounts; Adjustments: Personal expenses removed.

Cash yield divides seller-provided annual buyer cash flow by asking price plus supplied entry costs and additional working capital. Simple payback assumes constant positive annual cash flow; it excludes exit proceeds and the time value of money. Cash yield is not total ROI. For stake and asset sales, supplied asking price and cash flow relate to the interest or assets offered. Confirm tax, management pay, reinvestment, distributions and operating costs during due diligence. Figures have not been independently verified. Returns and availability are not guaranteed.
