Desktop Market Valuations

Comments   |   General

Most people are aware that K&A provides valuation services in conjunction with taking a company to market and negotiating a sale transaction.  But you may not know that we offer that same valuation expertise in situations where we’re not representing the company for sale. 

Whether it is for internal planning, buying out a partner or family member or setting up a buy/sell agreement, it’s important to know the current “real world” market value of a business, not just putting numbers into a formula.  The valuation of a commercial enterprise’s worth must be based on its earnings potential.  With K&A’s involvement and experience in North Texas merger and acquisition activity for 40 years, we are uniquely qualified to provide this type of analysis, providing our best estimate of what a financially capable buyer would pay for a purchase transaction in today’s market.

We’ve completed several Desktop Market Valuations recently:

  • Manufacturing company: Partner buy-out
  • Construction company: Planning for eventual sale
  • Construction company: Son purchasing business from Father
  • Manufacturing company: Sons purchasing business from parents
  • Veterinary Clinic: Partner buy-out
  • Construction Company: Buy/Sell agreement preparation
  • Manufacturing Company: Minority partner seeking buy-out

The process involves collecting necessary financial data, touring the business and having a confidential meeting with ownership/management.  K&A can typically complete these projects in a shorter period of time and less cost than other traditional valuation sources.  We’re happy to be a resource for you and your clients.
