Opinion of Value (Complimentary)
In this free valuation we will analyze your financial statements and tax returns, giving you a high-level understanding of your business’s market value. It serves as a useful starting point for go-to-market strategy discussions.
Mergers & Acquisitions Valuation
$1,500.00
The Merger & Acquisition Valuation is a comprehensive, transaction-focused business appraisal prepared in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). This valuation is designed for larger businesses—typically those with annual revenues above $5 million, preparing to be acquired by a strategic niche buyer or financial buyer. This approach emphasizes future earnings and projected performance, while historical results play a more limited role in determining value. Comparable companies are selected from both private and public markets, which often leads to a more forward-looking—and sometimes more aggressive—valuation conclusion. Each report is fully customized, with the length generally ranging from 20 to 200 pages, depending on the depth of analysis and supporting documentation required. Therefore, price of the report also varies. Please contact us to discuss your specific requirements. $1500 deposit is required at the time of ordering.
Formal Valuation
$4,959.00
The Formal Valuation will provide a comprehensive valuation and analysis of the business. In addition to valuation metrics, the report also conducts key ratios, benchmarks, trends and competitive analysis. The source of information might be more diversified than just the Industry Analysis Report. The level of financial analysis is more in depth (drill into the expense line by line level). Certain ratios and trends could affect business valuation, and the impact will be quantified in the report.
