Due diligence
What to Look For
Practical guidance from hundreds of real acquisition conversations.
FDA Clearance and Regulatory Files
- Ask to see the clearance letters and confirm that device registrations are current.
- Organized design records, complaint logs, and quality documentation mean the hard regulatory work is already done — and gaps in those files are what slow most device deals.
- Gaps in regulatory files are one of the most common things that slow or complicate device acquisitions.
- Finding a business where all of that is current and organized is something to get genuinely excited about.
Installed Base Revenue
- Ask how many units are installed in the field and what the average annual consumable spend per unit looks like.
- High consumable usage across a large installed base is the most reliable signal that revenue will carry through an ownership change.
- Ask about the service contract attachment rate and how that revenue is structured.
- Businesses where recurring revenue from installed units represents a large share of total revenue are fundamentally more predictable than those relying on capital equipment sales.
Customer Diversity and Settings
- Revenue spread across hospitals, outpatient clinics, labs, and specialty practices proves the device is clinically useful in multiple settings.
- Ask for a breakdown of revenue by customer category and confirm no single account makes up too large a share.
- Understanding which customer types drive consumable usage versus one-time capital purchases helps you see where recurring revenue actually lives.
- Diverse settings also reduce dependence on any one reimbursement environment.
Quality Systems and Team Independence
- Ask who runs production and field service, how long they have been in the role, and whether the quality system operates without the founder's daily involvement.
- Written procedures, calibration records, and complaint handling that would hold up to a review show the business runs on systems, not the founder's technical knowledge.
- A clean quality record with no open observations is worth asking about specifically — it's one of the most telling signals that the system runs independently.
- Documented systems that work independently are a meaningful premium driver in any device acquisition.

EBITDA
With large installed base, recurring revenue, and quality systems
Medical device multiples vary more than most industries because FDA clearance, consumable revenue as a share of total revenue, and the quality of the regulatory documentation all shift the valuation significantly. A cleared device with a large installed base generating predictable consumable orders can command a much higher multiple than a cleared device relying primarily on capital equipment sales.
