Corporate Valuation and Appraisal

Now that you have decided to sell your business, you begin to calculate in your mind how much it's worth. What is the correct answer? Are you sure that you've considered everything that a buyer would find of value? Don't worry. Most business owners don't know the true answer.

Calder Associates works with many of the nation's top valuation companies to offer professional independent third party valuation services that take into account more than your current financials and general economic conditions. Obtaining an independent valuation enhances the prospects for a clean and expedient sale when qualified offers are presented. The valuation reports these experts provide are extremely detailed, bearing proper justification for the appropriate value that a business has obtained. Many valuation reports do not use or reference the extensive database of business variables and information that are provided as part of the valuation services offered by Calder Associates.

We know, through years of practical experience, what helps determine value. We work with you to obtain and analyze all pertinent data, history, and conditions that would be relevant to an acquiring entity. Valuations, when done correctly, have consistently shown their worth because they uncover value that otherwise would be missed and left out of the negotiation process.

Through our experience we have also found that periodic valuations will help you in setting mid-course corrections in your business so that when the time comes to begin the sales process, the value of your business will meet your needs.
