How do you determine the true value of your business? You may be surprised to learn that business valuation incorporates far more than what appears on the balance sheet.

The purpose of preparing a business valuation is to explain to an outsider how your business operates and identify specific strengths and weaknesses of your company. To do that, Stabrowski & Associates examines the detail behind your financial statements and interviews employees, management and owners.

Using accepted business valuation approaches and methods, we can then determine a conclusion of value.

Our report will include:

• The nature of the business and the history of the enterprise from its inception
• The economic outlook in general and the condition and outlook of the specific industry in particular.
• The book value of the stock and the financial condition of the business.
• The earnings capacity of the company.
• The dividend paying capacity.
• Whether or not the enterprise has goodwill or other intangible value.
• Sales of stock and the size of the block of stock to be valued.
• The market price of stocks of corporations engaged in the same or a similar line of business having their stocks actively traded in a free and open market, either on an exchange or over the counter.

Once a value has been established, a benchmark will be set and can be referred to at some point in the future to determine if your business has become more or less valuable. Use your business valuation to capitalize on the strengths of your company and determine where improvements can be made. You’ll find your business valuation to be a valuable tool to prepare for:

• Planning and Growth
• Merger/Acquisition
• Gift/Estate Tax Returns
• Estate Tax Planning
