CNC Machining & Precision Parts in Matthews, NC

In Matthews, the company on the market is a CNC machining company running milling, turning, or multi-axis work to customer prints, typically $5M to $20M in revenue with 20 to 90 employees.

Matthews carries a dense population of small contract manufacturers and medical and consumer-product suppliers in 1960s-1990s buildings on the southeast side of the county. Revenue per company runs lower than the Charlotte average, so the $5M to $20M band here is usually a company at the top of its local market rather than a mid-sized plant, and the exit question is frequently whether the owner is the sales function.

Matthews shops are smaller than the Mecklenburg average and more often built around one or two long relationships the owner personally holds, which is the definition of the risk buyers price hardest in machining. The work that raises a Matthews valuation is unglamorous: get quoting into a costed system, put a second name on each account, and let the numbers show a year of it before anyone goes to market. Two documents do most of the work here: revenue and gross margin by customer for three years, and a quoting file that shows how jobs are actually costed. Together they answer the concentration question and the owner-dependence question, which are the only two questions likely to move a Matthews valuation.

A sale out of Matthews closes under North Carolina law. A North Carolina machining company sells under North Carolina entity and tax rules, and buyers routinely condition closing on Secretary of State good standing plus clean Department of Revenue withholding and sales-tax accounts.
