Our Business Valuation Process

First step : The business valuation Questionnaire

As soon as you place your order at our online shop, we will email you a login and password to give you access to our user-friendly questionnaire, which will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. If you need to interrupt your session, you can save the information you have already completed. You will be asked to upload your financial statements and any relevant documents such as balance sheets and profit & loss statements on Excel, Quickbooks or MYOB formats.

This Questionnaire will cover all relevant topics such as:

Your corporate Identity
The purpose of the valuation, which will be
- To establish a price for a transaction
- Due diligence
- Business planning
- Attract capital
- Aid in estate and gift planning
- Meet governmental requirements (SBA)
Nature of the Business
RealEstate and other Balance Sheet adjustments
Compensation to the owners and non-recurrent incomes.

Second Step : Verification of business valuation inputs and assumptions

We will email you if we need to confirm or complete the valuation inputs and assumptions to make sure that any special circumstances are incorporated into the final valuation results.

Third Step : Our Expert Valuers will proceed the business valuation

Our expert valuers will adjust your financial statements to capture the true economic value of your company by choosing a combination of business valuation methods best suited to your business activity. We use up to 22 business valuation methods with an emphasis on DCF methods.

Income Approaches (4 methods)
- Income-based methods determine probable future income of the business and capitalize this income stream to determine the business’s value. The adjusted or normalized income stream, which is the probable future income stream, can be determined by adjusting each revenue and expense item on the income statement (to its probable future value over the near term.) Capitalizing the income stream means determining an appropriate discount rate to apply to the income stream to arrive at its present value. The present value of the income stream in a profitable business is what gives the business its highest and best value. In a profitable, closely held business, income-based methods are usually the best to use.
Market Approaches (12 methods)
- These methods use data from comparable business sales.
Cost Approaches (3 methods)
- These methods include adjusting each asset and liability on the balance sheet to fair market value, then the values are summed. This approach ignores the earnings of a business and should receive minimal attention when valuing on-going closely held businesses which generate earnings by selling products or rendering services. Asset-based methods are appropriate for businesses such as bank holding companies whose principal function is to manage income-producing assets.
Custom Methods
- These are methods that have been developed over time by Business Matter Valuation and are exclusive to them.

During the business valuation of your business, we will also access extensive and comprehensive industry-specific databases - including Bizcomp, RMA, SBBI and IRS corporate ratio - to generate a cashflow-based business valuation for any company in one of the 981 non-agricultural industry sectors of the US. These databases allow us to compare your business to similar ones with similar sales transactions.

Forth Step : Writing the Business Valuation Report

After this comprehensive analysis of your business, our expert business valuers will produce your tailored business valuation Report, detailing our professional opinion as to the market value of your company. Your report will include a ‘letter of opinion’, stating the value of your business and our justification for that opinion.

We will also send you an electronic copy of your comprehensive Report, together with a covering letter and a ‘letter of opinion’ signed by our Chairman.

We are offering the best value for money in the business valuation industry and this is the reason for our success. Our professional and independent business valuation Report will definitely save you lot of money and time.

Testimonials

"Business Matter Valuation provided a valuation report in just a few days - reliable results at an unbeatable price."

John Grant

Computer Network Support Company
Texas

"Give onlinebusinessappraisal a chance to show you how powerful their services are. I was skeptical of what they could deliver for their prices, but I had already experienced the alternative – paying 10 times more to a local firm and getting a report that was used once and then forgotten. So, I gave Business Matter Valuation a try. Beyond being fast, affordable, and easy to use, they helped me think strategically about the value of my business. And that is priceless!"

Jon Saphier

Educational Consulting Firm
Massachusetts

"Great advice and insight at an unbeatable price. Once I saw what my business was worth, I quickly implemented the business succession that I had been considering for three years."

Joel Jutovsky

Grocery Wholesaling Firm
California

"I highly recommend Business Matter Valuation to any business owner who needs to determine a valuation of his/her business. The Business Valuation report is comprehensive in its description of the results. It taught me a lot about what I need to know about valuation."

Susan Roos, CFO

Public Relations Company
Massachusetts

"We asked Business Matter Valuation Ltd to provide a second opinion on a valuation we recently had done by a well-established valuation firm. First of all, Business Matter Valuation' determination of value for our firm was nearly identical to the first valuation we had done. Business Matter Valuation' report also provided strategic advice on a variety of valuation-related issues rather than simply providing a number. Moreover, Business Matter Valuation' price was a small fraction of what our previous valuation cost us. If we had simply used Business Matter Valuation from the start, we would have spent far less and received a high quality valuation report as well as sound advice on a wide range of valuation issues. We highly recommend Business Matter Valuation."

Robert DiMase, Vice President

Third Party Benefits Administration Company
Massachusetts

"I was quite impressed with Business Matter Valuation' valuation system. They really helped me out of a time sensitive situation where I needed a valuation done the week before I was having a meeting with a potential buyer of my firm. They delivered a valuation to me in less than 3 days. The system was easy to use, the reports were very understandable and they provided me with additional information to help me grow my firm. Most importantly, I received a valuation that I felt was accurate exactly when I needed it. I believe it is important for business owners to know the value of their assets, and onlinebusinessappraisal provides an excellent means for owners to do so."

John E. Dustin, CPCU - Owner

Insurance Agency
Massachusetts

"The process used by onlinebusinessappraisal.com is very efficient. I was extremely impressed with the level of understanding Business Matter Valuation had of our business from the information given to them. The level of detail in the valuation was very complete."

Michele Wong

"I am in the process of completing my third valuation with business matter valuation. With each new business-owner client, I have been trying to get them to do a business valuation when I see a need. A third-party professional’s input on the valuation of the business is important for painting a realistic financial picture for the client. The owners have been excited about getting an objective view of the value of their business at a reasonable cost. Onlinebusinessappraisal.com is really easy to work with. Their service is very helpful and valuable for the work we are doing at Sagemark."

Lei Wang

"My initial experience with Business Matter Valuation has been extremely positive. Based on that experience, I'll certainly continue to refer them to clients, and have a couple of prospects prepared to interview them in the near future. Business Matter Valuation solves a real problem for us by providing our clients with an independent valuation at a reasonable cost. I found them to the thorough, efficient and impartial. The attention to detail and follow up have exceeded my expectations."

Brian Farris

Financial adviser

"Having completed my first Valuation with Business Matter Valuation I was impressed. The process was very smooth, from beginning to end. The final report reflected back to the client the information that was needed to help plan the buy-sell and exit strategies for one of the owners. The client was very pleased. I will be using Business matter valuation again with a couple of upcoming cases that need a valuation report."

Ellwood Jones

Capital Region Financial Group
Sacramento, CA

"Business Matter Valuation Ltd just completed a Certified Valuation for one of my clients who was starting some transition planning. Both the client and I were very pleased with how things went. Business Matter Valuation has a solid system in place and they really take the ball and run with it. The start-to-finish process was seamless and the client received a very comprehensive report as well as personal explanations of valuation related issues. I highly recommend the service."
