What Is My Business Worth?

The business valuation is the most vital piece of financial information you will find with any business for sale. Every business owner should understand the importance of presenting a fair and accurate account of their business, so it will reflect the true value when trying to sell to a qualified buyer. 

The valuation has many purposes, among others, can be used to:

1. Sell your business.
2. Obtain a fair market value of your business.
3. Provide information to lending institutions for a commercial loan.
4. Provide information on the shareholders to a STI variation of building shareholder value.
5. Validate information for a merger, stock purchase or offer.
6. Create a succession plan or trust.
7. Generate fiscal plan capital.
8. Determine properties to protect the value of all assets and liabilities.

It is important to make a valuation because the carrying amount reflected in the balances of the business usually differs greatly from the actual market value.

Without a new valuation, a business owner must be prepared to defend their views on the value. For example, a potential buyer will not give credence to a value that has reached the accounting officer of the owner. Therefore, a valuation report prepared properly by an expert is the best tool usable to obtain the highest price possible.
