ATHENA is an established training and compliance solution company serving niche industries and end markets. The Company built a robust portfolio of up-to-date curriculum that meets the increasing regulatory demands of various end markets nationwide. With 95%+ customer retention, no customer concentration, CAPEX-light operations, a scalable business model, and a growing market need for compliance solutions, ATHENA is well-positioned for future expansion. 95% of the Company revenue comes from just a handful of U.S. states. This will make ATHENA a strong asset for the future buyer, who will be able to increase its footprint and expand niche end markets. Gross margins vary from 60%+ for in-person training to mid-80 % for online training.

Offering both online and onsite training solutions, ATHENA has created a loyal customer base across multiple niche sectors. Most of ATHENA’s customers still prefer in-person training where ATHENA’s trainers can walk the environment and provide updates to client safety and other compliance manuals.

The current owners seek a financial buyer who can step in and run the Company, or a strategic buyer who will incorporate ATHENA’s capabilities and clients under their umbrella. They expect to transition out within 3-6 months of closing as the team is in place for operating the business.

The sellers invested heavily in the business the past 3-4 years bringing in professional managers to handle key operation areas of the company including: finance, marketing, compliance area 1, compliance area 2, customer experience, LMS management, trainer development and more. The owners believe they can grow another 40-50% with the current infrastructure investments. The Company’s investments in people and professionalization are driving growth. They are coming off a record Q1 and expect to have a banner year in 2025.
