Business valuation, whether for a large enterprise or an emerging one, is a complex, multi-step procedure in which appraisers must calculate the value of all the company’s assets and property (real estate, vehicles, equipment, property rights and intellectual property, brand, reputation, etc.), consider stock and security quotes (if applicable), and conduct a thorough financial analysis of the company’s activities. Only in this way will the results be accurate, objective, and current, making them suitable for developing investment or business plans, management reports, and defending interests in court, tax authorities, or other agencies.

When Is Business Valuation Required?

Business valuation and organizational activity review are conducted for both external and internal purposes:

• Buying or selling a business – appraiser conclusions provide objective data on the current value of the asset.
• Attracting investments – our specialists can calculate not only the market value but also the investment value, helping justify the benefits of investing in an established business.
• Revaluation of fixed assets, identifying non-profitable assets.
• Leasing out a business – valuation data forms the basis for rental fee calculations.
• Transfer of business into trust management.
• Tax and property disputes – appraisal results can be used as arguments for pre-trial or court settlements.
• Inheritance proceedings – notaries calculate state duty for heirs based on the asset’s value at the date of the decedent’s death.
• Insurance contract drafting – the business value determines the amount of insurance coverage and periodic insurance premiums.
• Management decision-making and strategic planning.
• Reorganization, restructuring, company mergers.
• Calculating the share of a founder, including its sale or redistribution among other members (e.g., when a founder exits the company).
• Obtaining a secured loan – banks need information about the liquidation value of the business to determine loan conditions. This represents the amount a financial institution can recover if the borrower defaults.
• Privatization – requires calculating the current market value of the enterprise with all its assets.
• Transactions with securities: converting shares during joint-stock company reorganization, buybacks at shareholders’ request, evaluating the advisability of additional issuances, etc.
• Tax optimization – market value appraisal helps identify illiquid assets, informing decisions on their sale or lease.
• Liquidation, bankruptcy, or financial recovery for emerging from bankruptcy.
• Transition to IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards).

Appraisers select the most suitable methods and approaches based on the client’s goals and objectives to produce objective, accurate, and current results.

Features of Business Valuation

Every enterprise is a multifaceted object that requires highly skilled appraisers. Evaluating involves considering numerous external and internal factors, the company’s reputation and image, tangible and intangible assets. Without prior experience with complex entities, appraisals may yield inaccurate results.

For example, more than 20 different factors are considered in a business valuation, including:

• Value of tangible assets: buildings, structures, equipment, inventory, finished goods, and stock.
• Size of financial assets and investments.
• Value of intangible assets: licenses, patents, trademarks.
• Goodwill (business reputation).
• Human resources: management team, workforce, unique specialists, etc.
• Usefulness for the owner.
• Liquidity.
• Presence or absence of business operation restrictions.
• Political and economic conditions domestically and globally.
• Level of competition.
• Management quality.
• Specific production technologies.
• Current financial position of the enterprise, and more.

Evaluating the intangible value of a business is essential as it is no less important than movable or immovable property in modern conditions.

Due to its time and resource intensity, scale, and analytical complexity, business valuation surpasses other types of assessments. Our company assigns this task to the most experienced appraisers who can conduct comprehensive evaluations using financial reports and independent data sources.

The calculation methodology and optimal approach are determined on a case-by-case basis, depending on the scale of the business and the goals and tasks set by the client.
