The flood of Baby Boomer business owners planning to retire in the next ten years will create a buyer’s market for small companies. It will directly and adversely affect valuations for anyone who is unprepared.

Retiring Boomers outnumber those reaching 45 years old (the prime business buying age) by 4,000 people a day. Corporate America is well aware of this trend, and has stepped up efforts to attract and retain younger workers. In addition, members of Generation X and the Millennials are less interested in owning businesses that require a Baby Boomer’s work ethic.
