Own the Future of Compact Excavation Manufacturing in America
A Rare Opportunity to Launch Your Own U.S.-Based Equipment Production Line

Now available: the complete intellectual property, prototype, branding, and production rights for the Mini X Cavate JH-250 — a powerful, professional-grade compact excavator engineered to dominate a rapidly growing market segment.

Designed, assembled, and rigorously field-tested by inventor and builder Frank E. Lashua, the Mini X Cavate was created to solve a major industry problem: delivering true excavation power in places where full-size machines cannot operate.

This is more than a machine — it’s a turnkey manufacturing opportunity positioned at the intersection of American manufacturing, infrastructure growth, and compact equipment demand.

Why the Mini X Cavate Stands Out

The Mini X Cavate JH-250 combines industrial-grade performance with compact versatility, making it ideal for:

Urban construction
Residential excavation
Agricultural operations
Landscaping contractors
Utility work
Light industrial applications

Built to bridge the gap between overpriced OEM equipment and unreliable low-cost imports, the JH-250 delivers premium capability at a disruptive market position.

Professional-Grade Performance Specifications
Industrial Power & Hydraulic Performance
670cc / 22 HP EPA-Compliant Industrial Engine
Dual-Pump Hydraulic System
Delivers an impressive 22 GPM at up to 5,000 PSI
Heavy-Duty Capability
3,600 lb operating weight provides the mass and stability required for serious excavation work
10-foot maximum reach
9-foot maximum digging depth
10-foot dump height for easy loading into standard dump trucks and high-wall containers
Premium Features Included
Hydraulic quick-connect system
Compatible with hydraulic hammer or bucket attachments
Integrated Extend-A-Boom system for increased reach and versatility
Hydraulically foldable design for transport and confined-access operation
A Turnkey Manufacturing Opportunity

The prototype has already been successfully developed and tested. Included in this acquisition:

Complete Intellectual Property Rights
Trademark Ownership
Production-ready design
Prototype machine
30 days of direct support from Frank E. Lashua

This creates a rare opportunity to establish or expand a Made-in-America compact equipment manufacturing business with a product already engineered and proven.

Powerful Investor Advantage: The “Net-Zero” Tax Efficiency Model

One of the most compelling aspects of this opportunity is the potential access to significant federal manufacturing incentives available to qualified U.S.-based operators.

Potential programs may include:

R&D Tax Credits
Domestic Manufacturing Incentives
Employee Retention Credits
Potential Federal Credit Ceiling:

Up to $500,000 in available incentives

For the right buyer, these incentives may dramatically offset startup and operational costs while supporting long-term growth.

Investment Offering
Asking Price: $250,000

Includes:

Intellectual Property
Trademark
Prototype & production rights
Manufacturing opportunity
30-day transition support

The product is purpose-built for urban, residential, agricultural, and light industrial applications, addressing a well-defined gap between premium OEM machines and low-cost imports.
Key Performance Metrics
• Engine: 670cc / 22 HP Industrial Grade Engine (EPA Compliant).
• Hydraulics: Dual-pump system delivering 22 GPM (Gallons Per Minute) at up to 5,000 PSI.
• Operating Weight: 3,600 lbs. (Approx. 2 tons), providing the necessary mass for deep excavation.
• Reach & Depth: 10-foot maximum reach with a 9-foot maximum dig depth.
• Dump Height: 10-foot clearance, allowing for easy loading into standard dump trucks or high-sided containers.
The "Net-Zero" Tax Efficiency Model

How do the R&D tax credits work for a purchase of the Mini X Cavate company??

As of May 2026, the R&D tax credit program (largely shaped by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and 2025 legislative updates) allows qualified small businesses to offset up to $500,000 per year of their employer-paid payroll taxes, rather than just federal income taxes. This provision is aimed at providing immediate cash flow to startups and early-stage companies that are investing in research but are not yet profitable. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
How the $500,000 Payroll Tax Offset Works (2026)
• The Benefit: The credit acts as a dollar-for-dollar reduction of the 6.2% employer portion of Social Security taxes and, under recent changes, the Medicare tax portion.
• Maximum Limit: Eligible companies can apply up to $500,000 annually against payroll taxes, a significant increase from the previous $250,000 cap.
• Carryforward: If the R&D credit exceeds $500,000, the excess can be carried forward to future years to offset income tax.
• Duration: Startups can claim this payroll tax offset for up to five separate taxable years. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for this specific $500,000 payroll tax offset, a business must meet two main criteria: [1]
1. Low Gross Receipts: Have less than $5 million in gross receipts for the current tax year.
2. Startup Status: Have no gross receipts for any tax year before the five-year period ending with the current tax year. [1, 2, 3]
How to Claim the Credit
1. Calculate & Document: You must document qualifying research activities (e.g., developing new products, software, or processes) and calculate your qualified research expenses (QREs).
2. File Form 6765: Use this form to report your research activities and elect to apply the credit against payroll taxes instead of income taxes.
3. File Form 8974: This form is filed with your quarterly employment tax return (Form 941) to apply the credit to the payroll tax liability.
4. Timing: The election must be made on a timely filed original return (including extensions). [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
