Our Business Valuation Process
Our business valuation process is detailed, transparent, and designed to provide you with the most accurate reflection of your business’s worth. Here’s how we approach each valuation:
1. Initial Consultation
We begin with an initial consultation to understand your goals and needs. Whether you’re preparing for a sale, bringing in a partner, or planning for the future, our valuation will be customized to suit your situation.
2. Financial Document Review

We thoroughly review your financial documents, including balance sheets, income statements, and tax returns. This helps us assess your current financial health and any liabilities or assets that could impact the valuation.
3. Market and Industry Analysis
We conduct a comprehensive analysis of your industry, market trends, and competitors to understand where your business stands in the broader marketplace. This step is particularly important for dental, medical, and optometry, where specific industry trends can significantly impact business value.
4. Valuation Methods
We apply a combination of valuation methods to arrive at an accurate figure for your business. These methods may include:
- Income-Based Valuation: This approach evaluates the business’s current and projected earnings to determine its value.
- Market-Based Valuation: We compare your business to similar businesses that have recently been sold to determine its market value.
- Asset-Based Valuation: We assess the value of your business’s tangible and intangible assets, minus any liabilities.
Our team considers which valuation method or combination of methods is most appropriate based on the specific characteristics of your business.
5. Detailed Valuation Report
Once the valuation is complete, we provide you with a comprehensive report that explains our findings in detail. The report includes not only the valuation itself but also an analysis of the factors that influenced the outcome. This clarity allows you to make informed decisions regarding your business’s future.
Who Should Get a Business Valuation?

Business valuations are not just for companies looking to sell. Many business owners benefit from having a current valuation, even if they have no immediate plans to exit their business. Here are a few examples of who should consider a business valuation:
- Owners Planning to Sell in the Next 3-5 Years: A valuation helps you identify areas of improvement that can increase your business’s value before a sale.
- Businesses Seeking Investors or Partners: A fair and objective valuation ensures that equity is distributed properly during negotiations with investors or new partners.
- Owners Planning for Retirement or Succession: Valuations are critical for estate planning and determining how to pass the business on to the next generation.
- Business Owners Needing a Financial Health Check: Regular valuations give you a clearer picture of your financial standing and help with long-term strategic planning.
