Why You Need a Business Evaluation

The best way to obtain a fair company valuation is to use independent and professional business brokers. They can gather the relevant financial, operational, and market data to conduct a comprehensive assessment and then determine how much a business is really worth.
When a business owner decides to sell his company, they may not know how much they should ask for and they may not be the best judge of its worth. By engaging with a 3rd party such as business brokers, they will get an unbiased and objective opinion of what the business is worth. This will help them gain credibility with potential buyers and will be seen as more serious about selling the business.
Business owners should know the value of their business before making strategic decisions and that includes the decision to sell. By determining the value of a business, the owner will be in a better position to plan for the future. Periodic valuations can also help keep track of changes in the business. Ideally, a business valuation should be performed when an owner starts to consider the selling of their business and again when they are ready to move forward.
The profitability of a business is considered more important than revenues. Other factors that affect the company valuation include the type of business, its industry, how long the business has been operating, its organizational structure, assets, inventory, location and more.
In order to perform a company valuation, financial information and other data must be provided by the business owner and this can take some time. Once this information has been received by the business brokers, it usually takes from two to four weeks.
A company valuation can be used for loan applications, however some types of businesses are not always financeable. Furthermore, different financial institutions may have expertise with only select types of businesses.
Professionals with the appropriate training, experience and expertise, such as Investiprise’s brokerage firm, are qualified to perform business valuations and provide an accurate assessment.
