Back-on-Market Highlights

DealSlide tracked this wellness eCommerce brand returning after 26 days inactive with a 45.5% price cut, from $2.2M to $1.2M.

Timeline: First detected on March 11, 2026, at $2.9M, the ask fell to $2.7M on March 30 and $2.2M on June 1 before the listing went inactive on August 20. It returned on September 15 at $1.2M, now 58.6% below the original tracked ask, a cumulative reduction of $1.7M.

The numbers: The current listing reports approximately $167K monthly revenue / $41K monthly profit, equivalent to roughly $2.0M annual revenue / $492K annual profit at a 25% margin. At the $1.2M ask, that equals about 0.6x revenue and 2.4x profit. The brand also reports $20M+ lifetime sales, 215K+ orders, and a 28% repeat-customer rate.

On the return: DealSlide does not show that the 26-day inactive period represented a pending transaction, so there is no confirmed failed deal. The notable change is the additional $1M reduction on return. The seller describes the listing as a fire sale tied to urgent personal circumstances and a need for liquidity.

The most important question to ask: What occurred during the 26-day inactive period, and what changed between the $2.2M ask and the decision to return at $1.2M?

DealSlide tracked this B2B lead generation agency returning to market after 15 days pending at the same $3.2M asking price.

Timeline: First detected on July 25, 2026, it went pending on August 25 after 31 days on the market and returned on September 10.

The numbers: Acquire reports approximately $1.93M TTM revenue / $929K SDE, a roughly 48% SDE margin, putting the $3.2M ask at about 1.7x revenue and 3.4x SDE. The agency also reports 100% annual growth, 80% client retention, $20K average contract value, and just 5% revenue concentration from its largest client.

On the failed deal: The listing returned after a relatively short 15-day pending period, with no change to the $3.2M asking price. DealSlide’s history confirms the transaction did not proceed to sold status but does not indicate why it returned. The listing is also Under M&A advisory on Acquire, meaning the listing is being managed by a professional M&A Advisor through Acquire.

The most important question to ask: What caused the transaction to end after 15 days pending, and did anything material change in the business or deal terms during that process?

DealSlide tracked this aviation compliance and training SaaS returning after 320 days inactive, now with a defined $17.6M asking price after previously being listed as open to offers.

Timeline: First detected on August 15, 2025, the listing was marked delisted on October 23 after 69 days tracked. It remained inactive for 320 days before returning on September 9, 2026.

The numbers: Quiet Light reports approximately $2.18M revenue / $1.96M income, a roughly 90% margin, putting the $17.6M ask at about 8.1x revenue and 9.0x income. Recurring subscriptions represent 82% of revenue, core recurring revenue is up 37% YoY, and monthly net recurring revenue churn is reported below 1%. The platform serves roughly 250 aviation companies and 13,000+ users.

On the return: DealSlide recorded the prior status as delisted, not pending, so the history does not show that a buyer was under contract. The main change is the return after nearly 11 months off market with a stated $17.6M valuation.

The most important question to ask: Why was the listing off market for 320 days, and what changed before it returned at a $17.6M asking price?

DealSlide tracked this restaurant virtual brands platform returning after 33 days inactive with its ask reduced 10% from $4M to $3.6M, a $400K cut.

Timeline: First detected on August 5, 2026, at $4M, the listing was marked delisted/inactive on August 6 after just 1 day tracked. It returned on September 8 at the lower $3.6M ask.

The numbers: Acquire reports approximately $2.8M TTM revenue / $666K SDE, a roughly 24% SDE margin, putting the current ask at about 1.3x revenue and 5.4x SDE. The business also reports $2.6M ARR, 57% annual growth, 251–500 customers and 5–10% churn. ARR is about 7% below TTM revenue.

On the failed deal: DealSlide recorded the prior status as delisted/inactive, not pending, so there is no indication from the tracked history that a buyer was under contract. The clear change is the return after 33 days at a $400K lower price. The listing is also Guided by Acquire, with dedicated Acquire support through the sale process.

The most important question to ask: Why was the listing delisted after only one day, and what changed before it returned 33 days later at a 10% lower asking price?

DealSlide tracked this DTC motorcycle and sports apparel brand returning to market at the same $188K asking price after going pending on August 27.

Timeline: First detected on June 1, 2026, at $524K, the ask fell to $359K on June 18 and then to $188K on July 1. It went pending on August 27, after 87 days on the market, and returned on September 7, an 11-day calendar gap.

The numbers: Empire Flippers reports roughly $648K revenue / $205K net profit, a 32% margin. At the current $188K ask, that equals about 0.3x revenue and 0.9x profit. The ask is now roughly 64% below the $524K price first tracked by DealSlide. The listing also reports about 30 hours of weekly owner involvement.

On the failed deal: The listing returned at the same $188K price after the pending period. Before going pending, DealSlide had already tracked two reductions totaling $336K from the original ask.

The most important question to ask: What caused the listing to return after the August 27 pending status, and did diligence uncover anything material around the financials, manufacturing arrangement, paid traffic or inventory?

DealSlide detected this 4-year-old patented DTC ecommerce brand back on the market after 29 days inactive, with the asking price slashed 66.7% from $4.5M to $1.5M. That is a $3M reduction, making the repricing the clear story.

Timeline: First detected on DealSlide on October 22, 2025, at $4.5M. The listing was marked delisted on August 1, 2026, after 283 days tracked, then returned on August 31 at the new $1.5M ask.

The numbers: Acquire reports approximately $660K TTM revenue / $556K profit, an unusually high 84% profit margin. At $1.5M, the ask works out to roughly 2.3x revenue and 2.7x profit, versus about 6.8x revenue and 8.1x profit at the original $4.5M valuation. The brand also reports 60K+ customers, 24 SKUs, fully issued U.S. patents, and 595K+ combined social followers.

On the failed deal: DealSlide recorded the prior status as delisted/inactive, not pending, so there is no evidence from the status history that a buyer was under contract or that a transaction fell through. The more important change is that the seller returned after 29 days with the valuation reduced by two-thirds. Acquire also shows $726K of total inventory, while the seller says $413K of inventory is included, a difference worth reconciling because inventory represents a meaningful portion of the current ask.

The most important question to ask: What happened during the 29-day delisting that led to a $3M price cut, and why does Acquire show $726K of inventory when the seller says only $413K is included in the sale?

DealSlide detected this 2-year-old entertainment YouTube channel back on the market after just 3 days inactive, returning at the same $99K asking price. The channel has 11.1M subscribers and 4B+ lifetime views, making the size of the audience unusual for a sub-$100K listing.

Timeline: First detected on DealSlide on August 20, 2026, the listing went inactive the following day and returned August 24. DealSlide did not detect a pending status or price change during that period, so there is no basis to assume a buyer or failed transaction was involved. Flippa still has the listing in First Access, meaning paying First Access buyers can view it before it becomes publicly available on September 10.

The numbers: Approximately $52K annualized revenue / $48K annualized profit, putting the $99K ask at roughly 1.9x revenue and 2.1x profit. The monthly figures imply a roughly 92% margin, while Flippa displays 94%, so the underlying financials are worth reconciling during diligence.

On the inactive period: Three days is unusually short and very different from a listing returning after weeks under offer. With an audience this large relative to the asking price, the more important diligence is likely around monetization durability, content rights, traffic concentration, and whether recent views and revenue are holding up rather than the subscriber count alone.

The most important question to ask: What caused the listing to go inactive on August 21, and did anything change with the channel, monetization, or seller expectations before it returned?

DealSlide detected this B2B email marketing SaaS back on the market after just 6 days pending, returning at the same $1.15M asking price.

Timeline: First detected on DealSlide on June 3, 2026 at $1.9M. The ask was cut 39.5% to $1.15M on July 14, the business went pending August 13 after 71 days on the market, and returned August 19 after just 6 days under offer.

The numbers: Acquire reports $917.1K TTM revenue / $696.1K TTM profit, or roughly a 76% profit margin. At the current $1.15M ask, that works out to approximately 1.3x revenue and 1.7x profit. The price did not change when the listing returned.

On the failed deal: Six days under offer suggests the transaction ended relatively early rather than after a long diligence process. Given the seller had already cut the asking price by nearly 40% before finding a buyer, it is worth understanding whether the issue was buyer-specific, financing-related, or something uncovered during the initial review.

The most important question to ask: Why did the previous deal fall through after only six days, and had the buyer started diligence or financing before walking away?

DealSlide detected this faceless entertainment YouTube channel back on the market after being marked sold/inactive for 19 days. Three days after returning, it was converted to a $36K fixed-price listing, 35.7% below the $56K price before it went inactive.

Timeline: First detected on DealSlide on June 24 at $73K. The price fell to $65K on June 26 and $56K on July 1 before DealSlide recorded one bid and the listing went sold/inactive on July 24. It returned August 13 and was converted from an auction to the current fixed price on August 16.

The numbers: Flippa reports $54K annual revenue / $48K annual profit, an 89% profit margin. At $36K, the channel is priced at roughly 0.7x revenue and 0.8x profit, and is now 50.8% below its original $73K ask.

On the failed deal: The listing went directly to sold/inactive rather than through a standard pending period, so it is unclear how far the previous buyer got. Flippa also commonly uses "sold" before a transaction has necessarily closed, making it especially important to understand whether this was simply a failed buyer process or whether something surfaced during diligence.

The most important question to ask: What caused the previous transaction to fall through, and did the prior buyer uncover anything during diligence that contributed to the listing returning at a substantially lower price?

DealSlide tracked this Android utility app as sold, then back on the market just 7 days later, with the ask down 23.5% from $99.8K to $76.4K. That price is not a new low. It simply returns the listing to the same ask DealSlide recorded before the August 7 increase.

Timeline: First detected on DealSlide on March 2, 2026, and marked sold on August 7 after 158 days. No separate pending or under-offer stage was recorded. The listing returned on August 14 after 7 days inactive.

The numbers: $76.4K asking price on $74.0K annual revenue / $26.9K annual profit, a 36% profit margin. That's approximately 1.0x revenue and 2.8x profit. The Android app earns from subscriptions and advertising, with 4M+ cumulative downloads reported by the seller.

On the failed deal: The sold-to-active reversal is the part that stands out. If a transaction actually fell through rather than this being a status correction, a new buyer should understand how far the previous deal got and whether anything surfaced during diligence.

The most important question to ask: What happened between the August 7 sold status and the August 14 relisting, and did the previous buyer uncover anything during diligence that caused the deal to fall apart?

DealSlide tracked this two-brand Amazon FBA business is back on the market after 17 days pending, returning at the same $110K asking price + inventory.

Timeline: First detected on July 22, 2026, it went pending just 4 days later. The deal remained pending for 17 days before returning to market on August 13.

The numbers: $243.1K TTM revenue / $50.2K TTM income, with a $110K ask plus inventory. That works out to about 0.5x revenue and 2.2x profit.

On the failed deal: The first buyer moved quickly, but the transaction did not close. Since the price is unchanged, it is worth understanding whether the deal fell apart because of diligence, financing, or something unrelated to the business.

The most important question to ask: Why did the previous deal fall through, and did anything come up during diligence that a new buyer should know about?

Back on the market at $350K, 46.4% below its prior $653.5K ask, for this one-year-old YouTube channel with 2.1M subscribers and a reported 4B views. DealSlide previously recorded the listing as sold/inactive before it resurfaced.

Timeline: First detected on DealSlide on May 29, 2026, it was active for 40 days before being marked inactive/sold on July 8. It returned 27 days later on August 5 at $392.1K, then dropped another 10.7% to $350K on August 8.

The numbers: Flippa reports $397.5K annual revenue / $392.4K annual profit, a 99% margin, putting the current ask at roughly 0.9x revenue and 0.9x profit. For a channel this young with 2.1M subscribers and 4B reported views, buyers should spend more time on the durability of traffic and earnings than the headline subscriber count.

On the failed deal: Flippa can mark listings as sold while a transaction is still under offer, so the prior status does not necessarily mean a completed sale fell apart. What matters is whether there was a real buyer, how far the process got, and why the seller has now come back at nearly half the previous ask.

The most important question to ask: What happened with the prior buyer or transaction, and what specifically drove the price from $653.5K to $350K?
