Are you wondering if the window for a high-value car wash exit is closing? Jeff Pavone breaks down why current market multiples represent a pinnacle for valuations and why waiting for a better deal might actually lead to a lower payout.

• Why current interest rates and inflation suggest that business multiples have peaked.
