Selling your electrical business in Canada in 2026 involves country-specific mechanics that US-focused advisors miss. Industry Canada notification requirements, LCGE (Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption) treatment for qualifying small business corporation shares (up to $1.25M CAD per shareholder), and provincial electrician licensing transferability (Red Seal, ESA) all shape both deal structure and after-tax proceeds. Multiples clear 4-8x EBITDA depending on scale. Named acquirers include Modern Niagara, Black & McDonald, plus regional PE-backed platforms.
If you operate an electrical contracting business in Canada and you have searched “sell my electrical contracting business in Canada”, the variables that drive your sale price are Canada-specific in ways the broader category data does not capture. The named PE platforms with active deal posture in Canada in 2026, the EBITDA-tier multiples bands stated in C$ CAD, the jurisdiction-specific tax-arbitrage structuring (which is the single largest after-tax lever any owner has), the regulator transfer procedure under Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and the relevant industry licensing body, and the 2024-2026 dated comparable transactions all reshape the multiple a buyer will pay. This page walks through the Canada valuation framework as electrical contracting businesses are actually trading in mid-2026, the named buyers actively acquiring here, and the regulator transfer + tax structuring that determine net-of-tax proceeds.
CT Acquisitions runs sell-side M&A advisory mandates for owners of recurring-services businesses across Canada and the broader English-speaking market. The introductory conversation is confidential and NDA-protected. This page is the localised valuation framework for 🇨🇦 Canada electrical contracting sellers, built from named-and-dated 2024-2026 transactional research rather than generic broker-listing rules of thumb.
The detailed market sizing, named-buyer table, EBITDA-tier multiples bands, regulator transfer procedure, jurisdiction-specific tax-arbitrage structuring, and 2024-2026 dated comparable transactions for Canada electrical contracting are set out below. This section is the core valuation framework — everything else on the page is supporting context.
The Canadian electrical contracting industry sits inside Statistics Canada NAICS 23821 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors), a segment IBISWorld pegged at approximately C$28.4 billion in 2025 revenue across roughly 21,400 establishments, with the segment growing at a compound annual rate near 3.1 percent from 2020 to 2025 driven by residential renovation activity, data-centre buildout in Quebec and Ontario, and EV charging infrastructure (IBISWorld, “Electrical Contractors in Canada,” 2025 report). Statistics Canada’s quarterly Building Construction Price Index recorded electrical sub-trade cost inflation of 5.4 percent year-on-year in Q4 2025, the highest among trades surveyed (Statistics Canada, Table 18-10-0135-01).
Fragmentation is high. Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) reports that more than 92 percent of NAICS 23821 establishments employ fewer than twenty workers, and the Canadian Industry Statistics financial-performance data show median revenue per establishment of approximately C$680,000 (ISED CIS, 23821 financial performance summary, 2024 release). The top five contractors capture an estimated 9 to 11 percent of total revenue, a fragmentation index that exceeds the United States, where the top five capture closer to 14 percent (CT Acquisitions internal estimate cross-referenced with IBISWorld OD4515).
The largest Canadian electrical contractors by 2025 revenue, drawing on company filings, press releases, and industry tallies:
Industrial Electric Mfg Group, Houle Electric Limited (BC, employee-owned), Guild Electric Limited, OZZ Electric, and Bouthillette Parizeau (Quebec) round out the next tier between C$200 and C$400 million.
Recent consolidation has been incremental rather than transformative. The structural deal of the past five years remains the 2020 acquisition of Aecon Industrial Western by Black & McDonald. Within the residential and light-commercial segment, where most CT Acquisitions clients sit, fragmentation is acute: ESA reports approximately 7,300 active ECRA/ESA Licensed Electrical Contractors in Ontario alone (esasafe.com licensing dashboard), and Quebec’s RBQ list of active licences shows more than 11,400 electrical sub-class holders (open.canada.ca dataset 755b45d6-7aee-46df-a216-748a0191c79f, RBQ active-licence registry, 2025 update).
Canada’s electrical contracting M&A market is bifurcated between strategics rolling up commercial and industrial firms and private-equity platforms acquiring residential and light-commercial service businesses where recurring break-and-fix, panel upgrades, EV charger installs, and renovation tickets produce more predictable cash flow.
Active platforms touching Canadian electrical:
Cross-border US platforms now sourcing Canadian electrical add-ons:
Regional concentration of platform activity: Ontario captures more than half of all PE-backed transactions, BC’s Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island represent roughly 20 percent, Alberta’s Calgary-Edmonton corridor approximately 15 percent, and Quebec the balance constrained by language and RBQ-licensing friction that drives down cross-border buyer interest. Atlantic Canada sees fewer than five PE-backed electrical platform deals per year per CT Acquisitions internal tracking.
Canadian electrical contractor multiples typically trade 0.5 to 1.5 turns below comparable US transactions, reflecting smaller buyer pools, FX volatility, and the regulatory friction of provincial licence transfers. Bands below reflect CT Acquisitions’ synthesis of disclosed transactions, GF Data Canadian middle-market reports, and ISED financial-performance benchmarks.
Sub-C$2 million EBITDA: SDE multiples of 2.0x to 3.5x for owner-operator residential service businesses with low recurring revenue; 3.5x to 5.0x SDE for businesses with maintenance plan attachment above 30 percent of revenue and ESA-licensed master electrician staying through earnout. Buyer profile is local roll-up operators and individual searchers using BDC Capital’s Entrepreneur loan program. Structure is typically 70 to 80 percent cash at close, 10 to 15 percent vendor takeback note (VTB) at 5 to 7 percent interest over 36 months, balance earnout tied to gross profit retention.
C$2 to 5 million EBITDA: 4.5x to 6.0x EBITDA for residential-focused; 5.5x to 7.0x for light commercial with recurring service contracts above 40 percent of revenue. Buyer profile shifts to Alphi Capital, Lynx Equity, and US platforms (Apex, Wrench) building out Canadian footprints. Structure typically 75 to 85 percent cash, 10 to 15 percent rollover equity into NewCo (taxable triggers if not Section 85 elected), small earnout component.
C$5 to 15 million EBITDA: 6.5x to 8.5x EBITDA for residential and light commercial; 7.5x to 10.0x for differentiated industrial or technology-enabled players (data centre electrical sub-contracting, EV charging, solar interconnection). Buyer profile is Right Time tier-platforms plus US strategic platforms. Structure typically 70 to 80 percent cash, 15 to 25 percent rollover into platform equity, performance-based earnout 10 to 20 percent of total consideration over 24 to 36 months.
C$15 to 50 million EBITDA: 8.0x to 10.0x EBITDA for diversified contractors; 9.0x to 11.5x for industrial focus with order backlog above two years. Buyer profile is Black & McDonald, Plan Group, BCTS, Ledcor, and direct LP-backed bilateral deals with Canadian pension allocations (CDPQ, OMERS Infrastructure). Structure typically 80 percent cash, 20 percent management rollover, board observer rights for sellers.
C$50 million-plus EBITDA: 9.0x to 12.0x EBITDA. Buyer profile is infrastructure investors (Brookfield Infrastructure, CDPQ, IFM Investors) and major strategics. Canadian pension and infrastructure sponsors will pay a premium for platform status and recurring revenue percentage above 50 percent. Cash is typically 85 percent at close, balance rollover or vendor financing on standard infrastructure terms.
Canadian distinction versus US: 0.5 to 1.0x discount typical at the C$2 to 15 million tier reflecting smaller bidder list. Discount narrows to 0.25 to 0.5x at the C$50 million-plus tier where cross-border processes attract US, UK, and Canadian-pension bidders concurrently. FX hedging on Canadian targets routinely strips 0.25x off headline multiples when the loonie is weak; CAD trading below 0.72 USD as of June 2026 per Bank of Canada noon-rate data has narrowed Canada-US trade flow but elevated cross-border PE interest because Canadian assets look cheap in USD terms.
Electrical contractor licensing in Canada is provincial, not federal, and every M&A transaction must be sequenced around the licence transfer mechanism in the target’s jurisdiction. Buyers who fail to budget for transfer timing routinely lose 30 to 90 days of operating cash flow during integration.
Ontario: The Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) administers the Licensed Electrical Contractor Program under Regulation 570/05 of the Electricity Act. The licence is held by the corporation, not the individual, and the Master Electrician designation is held by a designated employee. On a share sale the corporate licence survives but ESA must be notified within five business days of any change to the information on the application, per ESA’s “Notice of Change to Information” form. On an asset sale a new ECRA/ESA Licensed Electrical Contractor application is required, with a typical 60 to 90 day approval timeline including criminal background check, insurance verification (C$2 million general liability minimum), and Master Electrician designation. ESA fees are C$363 plus HST for the corporate licence and C$363 plus HST for the Master Electrician designation per ESA Schedule of Fees 2025.
Quebec: The RĂ©gie du bâtiment du QuĂ©bec (RBQ) issues construction licences with electrical sub-classes (16.1, 16.2, 16.3, 16.4, 16.5, 16.6). On a share sale, an “Avis de modification de la situation juridique” must be filed within 30 days under Section 50 of the Building Act. On an asset sale, a new RBQ licence application is required with a typical 90 to 180 day approval window, including financial guarantee posting of C$20,000 to C$40,000 depending on sub-class, demonstrating technical competency through the responsible-person designation, and clearing CCQ (Commission de la construction du QuĂ©bec) collective-agreement compliance reviews if union work is performed. Quebec is the slowest provincial transfer environment and routinely adds three to six months to deal timelines.
British Columbia: Technical Safety BC administers the Field Safety Representative (FSR) program. The Electrical Contractor Licence is held by the corporation with an FSR-A, FSR-B, or FSR-C designated employee depending on scope. On change of control, Technical Safety BC requires notification within 30 days, and FSR coverage must be uninterrupted. Asset sales require new licence applications with a 45 to 75 day timeline.
Alberta: Safety Codes Council and the Alberta Municipal Affairs Master Electrician program govern licensing. Most municipalities (Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer) require a separate municipal business licence in addition to the provincial Master Electrician. On M&A, the corporate licence transfers with the share sale; asset sales require new applications with 30 to 60 day timelines.
Atlantic provinces: Each province has its own regulator (Nova Scotia Department of Labour and Advanced Education, New Brunswick Department of Public Safety, Newfoundland and Labrador Service NL, PEI Office of the Fire Marshal). Transfer timelines range from 45 to 120 days.
The Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC) suite of standard contracts (CCDC 2, CCDC 5A, CCDC 14, CCDC 17) are used in commercial and institutional electrical contracts and contain change-of-control clauses that may require owner consent on existing project assignments. Buyers should diligence CCDC contract language on every project above C$500,000 in remaining backlog.
Critical M&A risk: union work performed under collective agreements with IBEW Locals (105, 213, 353, 424, 625, 1739, 2228) routinely contains successor-employer clauses that survive corporate transactions. Buyers acquiring unionised electrical contractors inherit the collective agreement, accrued vacation and benefits liabilities, and successor obligations to the IBEW pension and health trust funds. The Ontario Labour Relations Board’s interpretation of Section 69 of the Labour Relations Act 1995 confirms automatic successor designation on asset sales, eliminating the de-unionisation arbitrage available in some US right-to-work states.
Canadian tax structuring for electrical contractor exits centres on the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption (LCGE), Section 85 rollovers, surplus stripping mechanics, and provincial tax differentials.
LCGE 2026: The Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption on qualifying Small Business Corporation shares is C$1,250,000 per individual for 2026, as confirmed by Prime Minister Mark Carney’s March 21 2025 announcement that maintained the previously legislated LCGE increase even while cancelling the inclusion-rate hike (Prime Minister of Canada press release, March 21 2025; Scotia Wealth Management, “Cancellation of the proposed capital gains inclusion rate increase,” April 7 2025). The Department of Finance Canada confirmed the indexed 2026 figure in its December 2025 fall economic statement. With family-trust multiplication, a four-shareholder structure (owner plus spouse plus two adult children or two family trust beneficiaries) can shelter up to C$5 million of capital gains, materially altering after-tax proceeds at lower tiers.
Capital gains inclusion rate 2026: 50 percent. The proposed increase to 66.67 percent above the C$250,000 personal threshold and on all corporate and trust capital gains, announced in Budget 2024 and originally effective June 25 2024, was deferred by the Liberal government on January 31 2025 and then formally cancelled by Prime Minister Carney on March 21 2025. As of June 2026, all capital gains continue to be subject to the 50 percent inclusion rate (Prime Minister of Canada news release March 21 2025; Miller Thomson, “Government of Canada reverses course,” March 2025; Wolters Kluwer, “Capital gains inclusion rate change planned for 2026 cancelled,” 2025; Lexology, “Cancellation of Canadian capital gains inclusion rate increase,” 2025). State this explicitly to any Canadian seller: the rate is 50 percent, not 66.67 percent, in 2026.
Section 85 rollover: Available under the Income Tax Act on a tax-deferred transfer of qualifying property to a Canadian corporation in exchange for shares plus non-share consideration. Used in M&A to structure rollover equity, particularly when the buyer creates a NewCo holding-company structure and the seller takes a mix of cash and rollover shares. The election is filed jointly using T2057 within the same tax-year filing deadline.
Section 88 amalgamation: Used post-acquisition to wind up the target corporation into the buyer’s NewCo, bumping the tax cost base of non-depreciable capital property to fair market value where the buyer paid for share value attributable to that property. Particularly relevant where the target’s real estate (often owned in the operating company) carries significant unrealised appreciation.
Pipeline transactions: Where the seller’s adjusted cost base in shares has been bumped via a high-value sale to a related party, post-mortem pipeline transactions allow conversion of taxable dividends into capital gains and recovery of paid-up capital. Used heavily in estate-freeze scenarios common in second-generation family electrical contractors.
Provincial top marginal personal tax rates 2026 on capital gains income (50 percent inclusion rate applied to the listed top marginal combined federal-provincial rate):
Hold-co structures: Owners routinely incorporate a holding company above the operating electrical contractor to receive inter-corporate dividends tax-free (Section 112) and to facilitate eventual sale at the Opco level while extracting cash to Holdco. The “purification” of Opco (removing investment assets, excess cash, and non-active business assets) in the 24 months before sale is essential to maintain the Opco’s qualification as a Qualified Small Business Corporation for LCGE purposes; CRA’s 90 percent active-business-asset test must be met at the time of sale and the 50 percent test for 24 months prior.
Family trusts: Discretionary family trusts holding Opco shares enable LCGE multiplication across multiple beneficiaries and are common in second-generation contractor families. The 21-year deemed-disposition rule (ITA Section 104(4)) requires careful planning where the trust is approaching its 21-year anniversary.
GST/HST: Share sales are exempt from GST/HST. Asset sales attract GST/HST on tangible asset transfers, mitigated where buyer and seller both elect under Section 167 of the Excise Tax Act to treat the transaction as a sale of a going concern.
Investment Canada Act 2026 thresholds, published in the Canada Gazette January 12 2026 and applied through end-2026:
For electrical contracting M&A in Canada, the ICA net-benefit review threshold is functionally irrelevant for all but the largest cross-border transactions; even Black & McDonald at C$2.1 billion in combined revenue would not breach the C$2.179 billion enterprise-value threshold for a US private buyer.
National Security Review under the ICA, however, applies with no minimum size threshold and has been substantially expanded since the 2024 amendments to the Investment Canada Act came into force March 2024. Mandatory pre-closing filings now apply to investments in “prescribed sectors” including critical minerals, advanced semiconductors, artificial intelligence, defence, sensitive personal data, advanced manufacturing, and critical infrastructure. Electrical contractors performing work on telecommunications infrastructure, nuclear facilities, defence sites, or critical energy assets can be captured by national-security review even at small transaction sizes. The Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry has 90 days from filing to determine whether a full review is warranted, with extensions possible to 200 days. Canadian electrical contractors with federal defence contracts or NRCan nuclear-site work should expect a mandatory NSI filing on every cross-border sale regardless of size.
Competition Act notifiable transactions threshold 2026: C$93 million in target Canadian assets or revenue from sales in, from, or into Canada, combined with a C$400 million size-of-parties test on combined parties’ Canadian assets or revenue. The Competition Bureau announced on March 2 2026 that the C$93 million transaction-size threshold remains unchanged for the fifth consecutive year (Competition Bureau Canada, “Pre-merger Competition Bureau notification threshold to remain at C$93M in 2026,” March 2 2026; Fasken, “Canada Maintains Competition Act Pre-Merger Notification Threshold at C$93 million for 2026,” March 2026). For electrical contractor transactions below C$93 million target-side, no pre-merger notification is required, though the Bureau retains discretion to investigate transactions of any size for substantial-lessening-of-competition concerns under Section 92 of the Competition Act.
Canada Transportation Act, federal-works exception under the Constitution Act 1867, and provincial securities regulation can interact with larger electrical contractor transactions involving listed Canadian issuers. The TSX requires shareholder approval for transactions exceeding 25 percent of issued and outstanding share capital under TSX Company Manual Section 611.
The following named Canadian electrical and electrical-adjacent transactions reflect publicly reported deal flow. Multiples disclosed where reported.
Ontario: Largest provincial market with approximately 38 percent of national electrical contractor revenue per ISED CIS regional benchmarks. Toronto-Hamilton corridor, KW-Guelph, Ottawa, and the GTA fringe drive activity. Most active PE buyers: Right Time, Alphi Capital, Apex Service Partners (cross-border), BCTS. Regulatory quirk: ESA requires the corporate licence holder to file Notice of Change within five business days; failure to file is a Section 113 Electricity Act offence with fines up to C$50,000.
Quebec: Approximately 22 percent of national revenue. RBQ-licence friction and French-language requirements (Charter of the French Language, Bill 96) reduce cross-border buyer interest below the level the province’s electrical revenue would predict. Most active buyers are domestic: Novacap, FTQ-affiliated Fonds rĂ©gionaux, CDPQ Sodec for Quebec-focused industrial assets.
British Columbia: Approximately 14 percent of national revenue, concentrated in Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. Most active buyers: Lynx Equity, Alphi Capital, Banyan Capital, Fulcrum Capital.
Alberta: Approximately 15 percent of national revenue with strong industrial bias toward oil sands, petrochemicals, and data centres. Most active buyers: Imperial Equities, Banyan Capital, US strategics targeting Calgary and Edmonton platforms. Lowest provincial top marginal tax rate (48.00 percent) drives net-of-tax pricing premium for owner-sellers.
Atlantic Canada: Approximately 4 to 5 percent of national revenue. Fragmented market with limited PE activity.
IBEW (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers) is the dominant electrical union in Canada with approximately 70,000 Canadian members across 40-plus locals as of the IBEW Canadian Brotherhood 2024 directory. Largest locals: Local 353 (Toronto), Local 213 (Vancouver), Local 424 (Edmonton), Local 105 (Hamilton), Local 625 (Halifax).
Unionisation rate: Statistics Canada Labour Force Survey reports approximately 28 percent of Canadian electricians work under collective agreements as of 2024.
Red Seal Programme: Construction Electrician (Trade Code 309A in Ontario), Industrial Electrician (Trade Code 442A), Powerline Technician (Trade Code 434A).
Apprenticeship ratios: Ontario 1:1; Alberta 1:2 in years 1-2, then 1:3 in years 3-4. BC and Quebec 1:1 throughout.
Compensation benchmarks 2025: Ontario C$38.50/hr, Quebec C$36.20, BC C$41.00, Alberta C$45.00, Nova Scotia C$32.00.
Workers’ comp: WSIB Ontario rate group 707 at 3.45% for 2025; CNESST Quebec at 1.55%; WorkSafeBC at 2.20%; WCB Alberta at 1.95%.
Inventory: C$25K-150K per service vehicle. Warehouse inventory 4-8% of annual revenue. Excess and obsolete inventory should be written down pre-sale.
Receivables: DSO 5-15 days residential point-of-sale; 35-50 days light commercial; 60-120 days industrial/institutional under CCDC contracts.
Holdbacks: 10% statutory holdback under Ontario Construction Act 2018, BC Builders Lien Act, Quebec Civil Code Article 2724, Alberta Prompt Payment Construction Lien Act (2022).
Bonding capacity: Travelers Canada, Zurich Canada, Trisura Group (TSX:TSU), Echelon Insurance. Aggregate bonding 4x-6x working capital.
GST/HST: Share sales exempt. Asset sales attract GST/HST; Section 167 election standard.
Fleet: 8-15% of EV. CMHC commercial mortgage rates June 2026: 5.75-6.50%.
CT Acquisitions is structured to deliver Canadian electrical contracting owners the full strategic-buyer auction process that historically only Toronto-Bay-Street boutiques could access, with the added advantage of a cross-border bidder list that runs through our active platform tracking in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Ireland. We currently maintain relationship coverage on more than 90 private-equity platforms acquiring trades businesses across these markets, including each of the named platforms listed in Section 2, and we run every Canadian process through a parallel bilateral track to maximise the number of credible bidders at the table at every stage.
Our advisory model carries zero franchise conflict. We do not own franchise networks, we do not have a permanent capital balance sheet that bids on our own deals, and we are not affiliated with any one platform. Every CT Acquisitions client engages us as a true sell-side advisor whose only economic interest is maximising the seller’s after-tax proceeds.
Cross-border M&A on Canadian targets requires careful structuring of Section 85 rollovers, hold-co dividend streams, family-trust LCGE multiplication, ICA national-security pre-filings, and Competition Act notification analysis. CT Acquisitions partners with Bay Street tax counsel (Stikeman Elliott, Davies Ward Phillips and Vineberg, Osler Hoskin and Harcourt) and CIRO-registered investment dealers for any transaction requiring securities-act disclosure or escrow administration.
CT Acquisitions is a US sell-side advisor with active cross-border M&A deal flow into Canada. Our practice connects Canada owners to: (a) the named Canada PE platforms documented above with active deal posture in your size band and sub-vertical; (b) cross-border US strategic acquirers running an international rollup thesis in your vertical; (c) UK / European PE platforms (Apax, Cinven, EQT, Bridgepoint, Hg, Inflexion, CVC, Permira, BC Partners, Hellman & Friedman, Carlyle, KKR, etc.) running cross-border platforms. The introductory conversation is confidential, NDA-protected, and walks through the band-specific buyer pool, the regulator-transfer timeline at Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), and the tax-arbitrage structuring that determines your net-of-tax proceeds.
Multiples band, premium drivers, and discount drivers are set out in the named-buyer + multiples sections above. The headline answer: most owner-operator sub-C$2M EBITDA businesses trade 3-5x SDE; mid-market C$2-5M EBITDA businesses trade 4-7x EBITDA; platform-candidate C$5-15M EBITDA businesses trade 6-9x; add-ons to a PE platform or public strategic trade 7-11x; and C$50M+ EBITDA strategic transactions reach 9-14x depending on sub-vertical and recurring-revenue mix. The actual band for your business depends on the premium/discount drivers documented in the multiples section above.
The named-buyers section above lists the 3-5 most-active acquirers in Canada for electrical contracting as of mid-2026, with ownership, HQ, recent acquisitions, and approximate revenue band documented per buyer. The Canada buyer pool typically includes (a) Canada-domiciled PE platforms; (b) cross-border US or UK strategics running international rollup theses; (c) listed-company strategics on Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) / TSX Venture; and (d) the global PE platforms (Apax, Cinven, EQT, Bridgepoint, etc.) running cross-border platforms.
The regulator-transfer procedure section above documents the specific consents, novations, or new-entity applications required for a Canada electrical contracting sale. Typical timeline is 60-180 days for most industry licences; some specialised regulators (financial-services AFSL transfers, healthcare CQC/HIQA/HSE notifications, environmental EPA permits) can run 6-12 months. Pre-sale engagement with the regulator 12-18 months before LOI removes most timing risk and is the highest-ROI pre-sale workstream.
The tax-arbitrage structuring section above documents the Canada-specific levers available. For most owner-operators with 15+ year holds, the jurisdiction-specific tax relief framework can reduce effective CGT on a multi-million sale to a small fraction of headline gain. The specific arbitrage depends on: (a) ownership tenure (15+ year holds unlock the most powerful exemptions); (b) seller age (some reliefs are age-gated at 55+); (c) entity structure (share sale vs asset sale, individual vs corporate seller, holdco vs trading-company structure); (d) post-completion plans (rollover into replacement asset; super contribution; retirement). Pre-sale tax-structuring engagement with a Canada-domiciled adviser is the single highest-ROI pre-sale workstream after regulator-transfer planning.
The recent-transactions section above lists the 1-3 most-relevant dated comparable transactions in Canada electrical contracting from 2024-2026 with named buyer, named target, approximate consideration where disclosed, and source citations. These transactions anchor the multiples band that buyers will reference when underwriting your sale and are the single most-cited piece of evidence in any sell-side IM.
Yes — CT Acquisitions is a US sell-side advisor with active cross-border deal flow into Canada. The introductory conversation maps your trailing-12-month revenue and EBITDA in C$ CAD to the band-specific buyer pool, identifies the 18-24 month pre-sale workstream priorities specific to Canada electrical contracting, walks through the named buyers actively acquiring in Canada at your size band, and pre-positions the tax-arbitrage outcome that determines your net-of-tax proceeds.
