Business Valuations
For the Covisory Business Valutions team there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ when it comes to business values, but there is a way of going about valuing a business that will make it more ‘right’ than ‘wrong’.
There are many factors to take into account when valuing a business. It is not just about ‘taking the past 3 years average profits and multiplying by 4’. Some of the key factors to take into account when valuing a business are:
- Market economics
- The customer
- The products
- Supplier concentration
- Key person reliance
- Quality of your staff
- Industry/sector prospects
- Any ‘special’ or ‘strategic’ value to the purchaser
- relative negotiating strength/weakness of seller and purchaser.
Our services include:
- Valuations for business sale, acquisition, merger and restructuring negotiations
- Company valuations for shareholder buy-ins, buy-backs and exits
- Company valuations to raise capital
- Business valuations for matrimonial property settlements.
