Patent-Pending Glow Sports Brand with IP & Prototypes
Summary An innovative athletic design company specializing in differentiated sporting goods and intellectual property. The business pioneered glow-in-the-dark lacrosse balls and tennis balls, bringing new possibilities to traditional sports. With an established e-commerce storefront, a U.S. patent application associated with its leading product, and an additional unreleased invention in the prototype phase, this is an opportunity to acquire an operating business with significant potential for retail expansion and product development. Business Highlights - **Innovative products:** Glow-in-the-dark sporting goods and recreational sports accessories. - **Intellectual property:** Patent-pending leading product and an additional unreleased invention in the prototype phase. - **IP insurance:** Intellectual property insurance intended to help protect against copycats, subject to policy terms. - **Established online presence:** Existing e-commerce storefront at nwathletics.us. - **Lean operations:** Approximately 2–3 hours of owner involvement per week. - **Growth potential:** Opportunities to expand into retail, wholesale, distribution, and licensing. Financial Overview | Metric | Amount | | Revenue | $98,951.59 | | Net profit | $14,812.07 | | Net profit margin | 14.97% | | Owner operating time | 2–3 hours/week | The 7X profit multiple is represented by the pending US patent, conversations with investors to license the product in retail stores, and the intellectual property insurance to control the market against competitors. Intellectual Property & Growth Opportunities The leading product accounts for approximately 50% of revenue and 80% of profit, according to owner-provided figures. The business also includes an additional product invention that has not yet been commercially launched and remains in the prototype phase. A new owner can pursue expanded retail distribution, sporting goods partnerships, wholesale accounts, licensing agreements, and commercialization of the additional invention. We also have a brand new product currently in prototype phase that will be the first of its kind when sold. A new owner will be able to launch this new product, automatically adding more revenue and profit to the already successful business. Ideal Buyer & Transaction This opportunity may suit a sporting goods company, distributor, entrepreneur, or strategic acquirer looking to acquire an existing product brand, intellectual property, and an established online business. The owner is seeking a buyer to take over operations and lead the next phase of growth. The final transaction scope—including the brand, website, inventory, product designs, intellectual property, and supplier relationships—will be defined during negotiations. Qualified buyers are invited to inquire for additional information.
