Sell Your SaaS Business in Canada
Canadian SaaS companies with $500K+ ARR sell at strong multiples — typically 3x–7x ARR depending on growth rate, gross margins, churn, and rule-of-40 score. The buyer universe is global: US PE, US strategic acquirers, Canadian software roll-ups, and increasingly European buyers. We position Canadian SaaS for international buyers seeking lower-cost development bases.
