Business Valuation

A business valuation is a general process of determining the economic value of a whole business or a company unit. Business valuation can be used to determine the fair value of a business for a variety of reasons, including the sale of all or a portion of the entity, to merge and acquire another company, to close the business or even in divorce cases. Estimating the fair value of a business is an art and a science. There are several formal models that can be used but selecting the right one and then applying the appropriate inputs can be somewhat subjective because it involves estimating the value of intangible assets, trade secrets and goodwill or brand recognition. The Clark Firm PLLC will analyze:

  • Company Financial Statements
