Starting point for a handover or acquisition
Various situations might result in a need to assess the value of a business for example as a result of an acquisition or a sale, a transfer within the family, a buyout of one or more existing shareholders or as a base-line measurement to better understand the position of your company.
Objective
Our specialists aim for the most objective value assessment, taking into account the nature of the assignment. Ideally, each value assessment is based on multiple valuation methods; often this is a combination of computational methods (such as Discounted Cash-Flow, improved profitability method) and approaches based on best practice: so-called market and transaction multiples.

For the financial analysis, we can automatically download the data from your administration into our systems, which enables us to execute in-depth analyses, often without effort on your part. It also allows us to take into account any possible synergies.
A value assessment accurately and objectively assesses the market value of a business.
Clear insight
Whether, after completing a value assessment, the decision is to start the process or not, the outcome nevertheless offers insight into the most important factors that determine the value of the organisation. It also provides an indication as to how further to optimise such value.
