Description

Business valuations serve a multitude of purposes. Valuing a business, its assets, and intangibles could be required for the sale of a business, gift or estate tax valuation purposes, 409A valuations for stock options, or other reasons. The first step in valuing a business is employing the best professional. There is an abundance of business valuation expert designations. Among these are a Certified Business Appraiser (CBA), Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV), Accredited Senior Appraiser (ASA), and Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA). Choosing the best fit for a business' current needs can be daunting.

The process itself entails choosing the proper valuation method. Market capitalization, times revenue method, earnings multiplier, liquidation value, and discounted cash flow are a few standard methods. The method chosen significantly impacts the overall valuation of the company.

The purpose of the business valuation, and whether a higher or lower valuation is preferred, affects the business valuation process. Buy-sell agreements, divorce, and shareholder disputes often require the valuation of a business, as does a corporation's need to memorialize its stock value to ensure the business does not exceed the Section 1202 thresholds to qualify for capital gains exclusion.

Listen as our panel of business valuation experts explains the business valuation process for owners and advisers to small businesses.
