Management Buyouts > Business Valuation

The valuation ofany business is not simply an accounting exercise. There are factors that increase and decrease the valuation of any business Many of these factors are commercial and market issues that are important to potential buyers and need to be recognised in most valuations.

The preparation of a business valuation is not an exact science.  A business can only be valued on the basis of what a conventional trade buyer would likely be willing to pay. This is an indicative valuation range.

Our Corporate Finance Partner has many years experience of valuing businesses. He also acts as an expert witness for legal firms on the valuation of businesses in shareholder disputes.

Whether we are preparing a valuation of a business prior to the sale process, or for shareholders in a dispute, our method of approach is to provide a truly independent valuation.

  1. We look to identify the key features that differentiate the business from its competitors
  2. We make appropriate adjustments to the company’s accounts to determine maintainable profits
  3. We determine the most appropriate methodology to using a multiple of profits recognising any key issues, such as non- recurring exceptional revenues or exceptional costs
  4. We advise on the potential payment structure of any deal and on the key taxation issues
  5. We normally present our valuation report in person to shareholders explaining the rationale, the key features and method of approach
