Business Valuations
Business valuation is as much an art as it is science.
Formal business valuations have their place and are undertaken for a variety of reasons including statutory purposes. By their very nature they rely on numerous assumptions and do not always align with market values achievable from a professional sale process.
The range of likely outcomes achievable from a professional sale process will vary
depending upon a multitude of factors including: the nature and type of
purchaser (financial investor, synergistic industry buyer, management
buy-in, etc), the availability of debt and equity capital to the
purchaser at the time of sale, the underlying reasons for the sale/purchase,
the level of competitive tension at the time of sale, and numerous
other factors.
Determining the true value of any business requires considerable market
knowledge and experience in order to properly evaluate the various
components and assess the correct value range.
Johnsons Corporate does not provide formal valuation services. We do however offer business appraisals that give a clear indication of
the range of likely outcomes achievable from a professional sale process. Our business appraisals draw on five decades of experience of buying and selling businesses.
If you need assistance to determine the likely value range of a
business talk with Johnsons Corporate to see how we can assist you from
a practical viewpoint.
