Valuations | Camphin Boston

What approaches can be taken to valuing a business?

Depending on a range of factors, valuers can use either an earnings, comparable market transaction, cost or future maintainable earnings approach to valuing a business. Sources of reliable data, position of the business in its life cycle, future opportunities and threats all play a part in deciding which approach to adopt. Crosschecks are always encouraged to verify the valuer’s initial opinion.
When would I need to have a valuation conducted?

You’ll need to have a valuation conducted in order to calculate capital gains tax liabilities, negotiate the sale of a business, undertake succession planning, navigate a family breakdown or for lending purposes.
How can I increase the value of my business?

Every business has its own associated risks and key drivers.
