Business Valuations
In any economic climate, it is wise to know your company’s financial position. To find out your financial standing, the services of a professional business valuer are recommended. A valuer will bring with them a wealth of knowledge and skills to provide accurate business valuations. The quality of the report and the information provided is critical for such things as presenting to investors, preparing for an acquisition, or securing funds from a bank or lender.
A business valuation in Australia can give you a clear picture of your company’s strengths and weaknesses. You might discover crucial details that enable you to make decisions based on the new information that has come to light. These decisions could help you increase your business revenue, whilst at the same time minimising your risks and liabilities. This is just one advantage of engaging business valuation services.
Our business valuers in Darwin will use one of four valuation methods to determine the total value of your business:
- Asset valuation method which is based on adding up the value of all the assets and then deducting any liabilities such as debts or other payments (such as insurance).
- Capitalised earning method which involves a review of the average net profit for the last three years and then considers that in relation to the current market condition. The valuer will then determine the anticipated ROI and will divide the expected profit by the cost and comes up with a percentage. The percentage is then multiplied by 100 to assess the value of the business.
- Earnings multiple method is where your business will be compared to other businesses. The earnings before interest and tax will then be multiplied to ascertain a value.
- Comparable sales method which is simply where we review recent business sales in your area and region.
