About the Business

NDIS Provider, Far North QLD

Most businesses spend a fortune chasing customers.

This one gets most of its referrals from the government agency that funds the sector.

It's a registered NDIS provider working across 29 remote communities in Cape York and the Torres Strait - support coordination, plan management and allied health. Open to all participants, with a specialisation in remote delivery and First Nations communities. Eight years of continuous trading.

The regions it serves are classified remote and very remote. Most competitors fly in, stay two days, fly out. This business has permanent offices and local staff on the ground. That's why the referrals keep coming. It's also why a competitor can't simply undercut it.

Two ways to buy

100% of the shares - $1,100,000. That's 2.8 times adjusted profit before an owner's wage.
49% of the shares - $539,000. Exactly pro-rata: 49% of $1,100,000. Same price per share, same 23.9% indicative return.
So why would anyone buy half?

Because majority First Nations ownership is what keeps a business eligible for Supply Nation Certification and Commonwealth Indigenous procurement. Under the 49% option the founding family stays at 51% and those doors stay open. Buy the lot and, unless you're an Indigenous buyer yourself, they close behind you.

The handover

Under the 49% option the founder stays in her operational role for six months, then hands over to a Business Manager. That manager's wage is already deducted from the profit figures above - so the appointment is funded, not an extra cost bolted on afterwards.

Where a new owner could take it

None of this is a forecast, and each would need its own business case.

Add core supports, short-term accommodation or supported independent living - none of which the business currently delivers
Grow allied health into new regions
Lift support coordination capacity to meet demand that already exists
The sector shift, and where this business sits

From 2027 and 2028 the Commonwealth is moving plan management and support coordination to commissioned models, with providers appointed rather than picked participant by participant. Those two lines are about 84% of revenue here, so it matters.

Panel selection of that kind usually turns on incumbency, local presence and a track record in thin markets. This business has permanent offices and local staff in communities most providers only visit. It also earns allied health revenue, which isn't part of the announced changes, with room to add core supports, which aren't either.
