VALUATION

The true value of a business can only be determined by exposing the opportunity to buyers on the open market. The job of the broker therefore, is to market the business to the widest possible audience of buyers to drive high levels of interest, offers and ultimately the sale value.

During our Free, No Obligation Business Valuation, our experienced Associated Directors can provide you with an expected value range, based on understanding a wide variety of factors.

Such factors can include:

  • CUSTOMER LOYALTY
  • TRADING HISTORY
  • VALUE OF FIXTURES AND FITTINGS
  • QUALITY OF STAFF
  • TRADING LOCATION
  • CONDITION OF PROPERTY
  • STRENGTH OF BRAND
  • LEASE CONDITIONS
  • SECTOR DEMAND
  • FUTURE POTENTIAL
  • OPENING HOURS
  • ONLINE PRESENCE
  • FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
  • SUPPLIERS

These different factors affect the valuation of a business, for example, many businesses that can demonstrate consistent and growing performance levels are likely to prove to be an attractive proposition to potential buyers, resulting in higher values being paid by acquirers who can see long-term growth and prosperity.

When buyers see a brand with a strong and trusting customer base, they are immediately drawn to the business. This is particularly relevant to trade buyers that might be able to sell cross-existing products or services straight into the target company’s client base. This approach offers companies access to potential customers they might not be able to target without the acquisition.

The strength of a company’s management team will not go unnoticed by potential buyers (particularly investment buyers who are looking to get involved). The main point is that investment buyers won’t be necessarily involved in day-to-day operations, so they need a trustworthy and reliable management team to oversee the business.

Our process allows for a price to be tested in the open market with all feedback from interested parties discussed with you. Our approach will be fine-tuned and amended throughout to ensure we are constantly acting in your best interests, maintaining momentum and maximising the sale conditions in respect of both timescales and value.

Upon meeting with you and carrying out a no obligation assessment of your business, we will be able to advise you more accurately on the likely value that you can expect for your business.

If you are considering selling your business, we would be delighted to talk to you and undertake a no obligation valuation for you to consider.
