Business valuation planning and research
Did you know that 40% of business owners significantly misestimate their company’s worth before consulting a business valuation expert?
Whether you’re planning to sell your business, seeking investors, or handling legal proceedings, getting your company’s value wrong can cost you millions. Indeed, choosing the right valuation expert isn’t just about finding someone with a calculator – it’s about finding a professional who understands your industry, speaks your language, and knows exactly what methods will give you accurate results.
But here’s the challenge: with countless professionals claiming expertise in business valuation, how do you separate the truly qualified experts from those who might miss crucial value drivers in your business?
When should I get my business valuated?
Business valuations serve multiple purposes throughout a company’s lifecycle. Determining the best business valuation method for your company is a crucial step in the process and one with which Volpe would be happy to assist. Most owners seek valuations in these situations:
- Business sale or acquisition – Whether selling your business or buying another, a valuation helps establish fair market prices and negotiation positions.
- Succession planning – Transferring ownership through family succession, employee buyouts, or strategic sales requires clear valuation to ensure proper transitions.
- Estate and gift tax planning – Accurate valuations are essential for transferring business interests while minimizing tax burdens.
- Legal proceedings – Valuations support resolution in shareholder disputes, partnership dissolutions, marital divorces, and other litigation.
- Capital raising – Investors and lenders typically require objective valuations before providing funding.
- Buy-sell agreements – Creating agreements between business partners requires establishing mutually agreed-upon values to prevent future conflicts.
