Overview

Fleet leasing businesses typically trade at 3.5×–7× EBITDA. Recurring monthly lease income from corporate fleet operators, residual value management expertise, and EV fleet transition advisory capability support strong valuations. Funder relationships and OEM fleet pricing access are critical competitive advantages. EV residual value uncertainty and customer credit risk are the primary acquisition considerations.
