I look at it as a leading price. If interested, both sides dig in to firm up 
their positions.

I don't know if I would buy someone who couldn't figure EBITDA. How could you 
trust their books? Maybe if it was enough discount. On the other hand, if you 
know all the cost involved you don't really need EBITDA to evaluate a business. 
So many times it is cheaper and just as fast to just take the customers. For a 
network that small it wouldn't take much.

I hear that is around 12x - 18x months of revenue and a heck of a lot easier to 
calculate when ballparking. They know their revenue (or well, is somewhat easy 
to figure out). They probably can't spell EBITDA.

When looking at buying a competitor, I'm wondering what everyone's thought is 
on a price per sub? They don't do contracts and they use the litebeam hardware. 

I'm not looking for legal advice, just wondering what all of you think is fair. 
This company has about a 90% take rate in the area they're in. Their plans are 
$20, $40, and $50/mo. 

Thank you,
