Introduction: Why Engage Professional Valuation Services?
There are many times in a business’s lifecycle where it is important to ask, “How much is my business worth?” When selling, restructuring, or seeking compensation for business damages in court, a business valuation is the most potent answer in deciding how to calculate how much a business is worth. Valuation quantifies the worth of a business or intangible assets precisely and empirically, endowing them with a dollar value that is difficult to contest. This is an essential step in every meaningful business development situation you will encounter.
Determining the value of a business is a complex process that incorporates many factors. Do-it-yourself “what-is-my-business-worth calculators” will give you a grossly inaccurate number because quantifying the value of a company takes much more than crunching a few numbers. You want a capable and experienced team of business analysts and valuation experts to answer “How much is my company worth?” for the most accurate and defensible results.
A business valuation specialist can help you save time and resources as well as limit your risk exposure from a poor valuation job. Depending on your particular need for valuing your company, this can translate into millions of dollars in savings. In this guide, Abrams Valuation Group, Inc. explores the various scenarios in both a business’ and business owner’s lifecycle that would benefit from a business valuation.
