We have extensive experience performing valuations, from small family-owned firms to businesses worth millions of euros.

The pricing of an asset is the result of bid and ask confrontation at a specific time in a liquid market. We do easily understand how complex and sensitive illiquid asset valuation might be.

We know from experience that the valuation of a corporate asset is subject to many bias. Evaluation criteria vary from one expert to the other due to information gaps and subjective perceptions. Moreover legal clauses such as Representations and Warranties or Earn-out tend to impact face value.

Besides using well known valuations methods, we also take into consideration the specifics of each company such as history, culture, management style, products, market size, expectations of earning and growth. The result is a valuation strongly supported by concrete evidence, scientific approach and our sound experience of corporate transactions.

We determine practice-related and credible business values by using the following procedures, depending on the task assigned:

• Capitalized earnings method
• Discounted cash flow method
• Comparative value method
• Net assets valuation
• Determination of the liquidation value
• EVA, MVA
