Business Valuation
Business Valuation

Business Valuation is a process and set of procedures used to estimate the economic value of an owner's interest in a business.

There are many reasons why business owners benefit from knowing the value of their business. Some benefits are obvious- for example, to assess an offer or assist in negotiations when buying or selling a company. However, a business valuation is a useful tool to owners who plan to maintain ownership over the long term as well. A valuation allows owners to have a benchmark on which to compare value year over year, set performance goals based on value drivers, identify strengths and weaknesses, and ultimately enhance value. The following is a list of additional ways in which a business owner can benefit from knowing the value of their company:

  • Enhancement of the value of the business for exit planning
  • Establish the per share value of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
  • Identify any tax benefits of converting from a C-Corporation to an S-Corporation
  • Shareholder (ownership) disputes, investment, or buyouts
  • Calculate funding of buy-sell agreement obligations
  • Raise additional capital investments or financing
  • Estate tax reporting
  • Gift tax planning purposes
  • Marital dissolution
  • Value synthetic equity (stock appreciation rights, warrants, phantom stock plans, etc.)
  • Establish economic damages or expose fraud
