The team explores a listing for a home‑based Australian business selling branded adhesive patches for continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) — the listing claims approximately US $3.5 M in trailing 12‑month revenue (converted from AUD) and US $1.46 M in cash‑flow (~41 % net margin). The business model includes Amazon FBA plus a couple of major U.S. pharmacy accounts, with the owner working ~10 hours/week.
Key Highlights:
- Asking price ~US $4.4 M, trailing cash‑flow US $1.46 M (≈41 % net margin)
- Business based in Australia, selling (via Amazon + pharmacies) consumable patches for CGMs — a growing diabetes adjacent market
- Opportunity for U.S. expansion + licensing of characters/brands to build a moat
- Risks: Australian entity, potential Amazon seller‑migration issues, unclear SBA financing, low barrier to entry in consumables
- Strategic path: Use Aussie cash‑flow to buy and build U.S. subsidiary, invest heavily in influencer / TikTok, build brand/licensing to protect margin
