ESTIMATED BUSINESS VALUE
As any experienced M&A Professional will explain, it is impossible to provide an accurate valuation for your business – the final price will reflect market dynamics, business performance, buyer appetite and competitive bidding. None can be predicted with accuracy.
However, empirical data is available across many industry segments for SME companies that have sold in recent years. This can provide an initial indication of where value may lie.
This online tool uses empirical data from leading Business Schools and mid-cap M&A / Accounting firms combined with transaction experience.
We must stress that this online calculator provides an estimate only.
The final value of your business may under or over-perform the estimate depending on many factors. Therefore you should NOT rely on this estimated valuation for any commercial decisions.
That being said, an estimate is often useful in deciding whether to fully evaluate an exit strategy! We hope you find it useful.
Any data you share with us is completely and totally confidential. All data is held on a secure server with state-of-the-art encryption technology.
We will not share or sell your contact details to any third party, ever.
