Methods of Valuing a Business

There is no 'correct' price for a business. Valuing a business is always an imprecise science, even with large-cap public companies. The right price is one that a willing buyer is prepared to pay and a willing seller is prepared to receive.

Value is to a large extent dependent upon who is doing the valuing and for what purpose: for example, a distributor of electrical goods may find that the business is of more value to a related manufacturer than to an unrelated buyer. An industrial manufacturer with five solid customers is likely to fetch a lower price than a similar-size competitor with 50 outlets because its revenue source is less diversified.

There are a number of methods of valuing businesses including:

  • Comparison based valuations
  • Price earnings ratio basis of valuation
  • Discounted cash flow
  • Net asset value and goodwill
