What is the business worth — and what determines that value?
Independent valuation to support ownership decisions, preparation or a later transaction.
We help owners understand what their business is worth, which factors may reduce or enhance that value, and what can be done to improve sellability or support a future successful transaction.
Revenue or accounting profit alone are not enough. Sustainable earnings, cash flow, growth and risk need to be considered together.
Owner dependence, customer concentration, weak reporting, volatile cash flow or other business risks can all influence what a buyer would pay.
Not every initiative creates the same value. The goal is to prioritise the steps most likely to improve quality, sellability and value.
In some cases, understanding value matters most. In others, identifying risks or improving the company is the priority. And in some situations, transaction preparation is already the next meaningful step.
Independent valuation to support ownership decisions, preparation or a later transaction.
We assess the business’s financial and operating quality, the most important risks and the factors that may affect value or sellability.
We identify and prioritise the development opportunities most likely to improve business quality, value and investor attractiveness.
If the objective is to sell the company, we support the process from preparation and buyer identification through negotiation to completion.
No. Valuation can be used entirely as a standalone service.
Ideally well before going to market. Some issues can be improved quickly, while others may take months or even years.
That is one of the purposes of the work. Issues are prioritised by impact and feasibility, making it clear what is worth addressing.
Depending on the company, potential buyers may include strategic acquirers, industry players, private equity investors, family offices or private investors.
