Published ranges are each buyer's own figures, checked on the date shown. They are not an offer, quote, valuation, or guarantee of payment. AIData.Broker's compilation of public figures puts the median published offer at about $280,000 per company and the median public sale at about $31,600 — most companies should expect an actual offer, if any, only after a buyer reviews a metadata-only manifest, and it may be below published ranges or none at all.
Terms and watch-outs
