Business Valuations

Valuations may be required for a number of reasons, including the following:

  • Selling your business
  • Buying back the shares of a retiring director
  • Setting the price for employee share options or management incentive scheme
  • Resolve tax issues such as capital gains or inheritance tax
  • Determine the value of a business for divorce proceedings

Therefore, the independence of the valuation can be as important as the value itself. In particular, a valuation undertaken by a professional firm will apply a recognised process to published data, resulting in a robust valuation which can be used where there are conflicting view points.
Our Corporate Finance team have carried out a number of valuations across a variety of different industries over the years and have built up the necessary skill base to undertake these valuation assignments in a timely and cost effective manner.
Particular skills required include:

  • Technical experience to apply the most appropriate valuation method for the business model and purpose of the valuation;
  • A high level of research and analysis skills to fully appraise a company’s financial information and understand and apply the relevant market data to that information in order to calculate a value; and
  • Experience in deal management or, for valuations for tax purposes, Inland Revenue processes so that the appropriate valuation method and presentation is used.
