FAQ
We've guided hundreds of business owners through the sale process. Here are the questions we hear most often at the start of a conversation.
Exit Equity offers a firm fixed price for a valuation. A typical valuation takes between 15 and 30 hours, at times up to 45 hours. The total amount of hours needed to complete the valuation depends on the complexity of the business (messy books, multiple subsidiaries, multiple currencies, etc), the type of valuation, and the qualification level of the analyst required to complete an accurate and robust valuation. Once a client needs assessment has been completed, our team can quickly prepare a quotation for a valuation.
Free tools rely on generic multiples and limited data. Our valuations are prepared by credentialed analysts who review your financials, normalize earnings, study comparable transactions and deliver a defensible report you can act on.
Typically three to five years of financial statements and tax returns, a current interim statement, details on owner compensation and add-backs, and an overview of customers, staff and operations.
We apply market, income and asset-based approaches and weight them according to your industry, size and the purpose of the valuation.
A written report with the concluded value, the methodology used, normalized financials, comparable transactions and the key value drivers that help or hurt your business value.
We offer a Broker’s Opinion of Value for planning and pricing decisions, and a Certified Business Valuation prepared by our NACVA credentialed analysts for tax, legal and compliance purposes.
