ValuAdder gives you a set of professional business valuation tools and expert advice on how to use them for:

Determine the fair market value of your business

See what a private business is worth by using the Market Comps by industry, available in ValuAdder. Based on the in-depth analysis of over 20,000 sales of privately owned businesses, the Market Comps let you quickly see what the buyers are paying for businesses similar to yours.

Increase your business value – and selling price

See how the value of your business is defined by its earnings and a set of key value drivers. Identify high impact opportunities for increasing your business worth by using the 14 key value factors available in the time-tested Multiple of Discretionary Earnings valuation. Make these changes before putting the business on the market, attract a lot of qualified buyer interest, and justify the much higher selling price.

Value your business based on its earning power

Impress the serious buyer by using the power and precision of the Discounted Cash Flow method. Input your cash flow projections directly, and let ValuAdder show what the buyer gets for paying your price.

Determine the value of business goodwill

Show that your business is worth more than its asset base. Use the classical Treasury Method to calculate the value of business goodwill and total company value.
