Reaching a company valuation will often involve an independent professional valuer. However, you can use some valuation methods to reach a good estimate for your company&#8217;s value without hiring a professional third party.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This article will explain some of the critical considerations that will go into the valuation process that determines your business&#8217;s present value.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Value My Company?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Finding the market <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/corporations\/maximising-value-enhance-businesss-appeal-before-sale\/\">value<\/a> for your company can be helpful in a range of situations.\u00a0For example, it can be beneficial for:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">setting a <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/corporations\/value-my-companys-shares\/\">fair share price<\/a>: this can be good if your employees want to buy shares in your company or if you are setting up an options pool;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">filing your taxes: you may need to provide valuation statistics on your tax return;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/business-sale-purchase\/5-tips-for-selling-your-business-in-england-and-wales\/\">selling your business<\/a>: naturally, the market value of your business is important if you are selling it;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">securing any investments: investors will want to see a realistic figure, and they may ask for your valuation method in reaching your business valuation; and<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">if you want to buy out an existing partner within your business.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Considerations Go Into My Company Valuation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The first things to look at will be your assets and liabilities.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Your assets will include physical properties, such as stock, inventory, machinery, and land. These items usually have a quantifiable value.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Furthermore, your assets also include intangible items, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/intellectual-property\/types-of-intellectual-property\/\">intellectual property<\/a><\/span> <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">and goodwill. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"box box--icon box--info\">\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Goodwill includes your business brand and reputation. However, this is more difficult to quantify, and it will usually come down to what the buyer is willing to pay for. In this aspect, you should make sure you do not undersell yourself while also making a realistic estimate of the value of your intangible assets.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In addition, you will want to look at:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the age of your business;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the potential for growth of your business;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">your market capitalisation and your strategy to grow your capitalisation;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the strength and dedication of your employees;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the type of product you are selling, as a more innovative product could be worth more; and<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">why you are valuing your company.

Again, there are a variety of valuation processes that you should be aware of.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Price to Earnings Ratio (P\/E)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Working out a P\/E (price to earnings) ratio is a good way of valuing a business if the business has an established financial history.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"box box--icon box--info\">\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This is more likely to be the case for a business that has been around for a longer time and may not be well suited for a startup.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A P\/E ratio reflects a company&#8217;s post-tax profits divided by its valuation. In this way, your company&#8217;s valuation reflects its post-tax annual profits if you use a P\/E ratio. If your profits are exceptionally healthy and you have a high forecast for profit growth in the future, then a P\/E ratio may be preferable.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Entry Cost<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">An entry cost valuation method looks at how much it would cost to set up comparable companies to your business.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This means you will consider all of the costs in getting the business to its current stage and look at what a similar business would have to do to get to the same stage. This will include:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">developing a customer base;<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">your tangible assets and intangible assets; and<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the team behind your company;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discounted Cash Flow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This valuation method will predict the company&#8217;s cash flow over a certain period and base the company&#8217;s valuation on that equation.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The equation will calculate the present value of predicted cash flows by using a discount rate. This accounts for risk and the time value of money.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As a business owner, you are likely to have to value your business at some point. When you are valuing your business, you m<\/span>ust account for<span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> tangible assets, intangible assets and <\/span>your company&#8217;s team<span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">There are different valuation methods once you have all the relevant data to carry out your business valuation. The method that is best suited for your business will depend on your company&#8217;s financial history. It will also depend on whether it has been operating for long enough to make an estimate based on post-tax annual profits or whether it is better to predict using estimated cash flows.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need help with understanding how your company will be valued, our <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/corporate-lawyers-lp\/\">experienced corporate&nbsp;lawyers<\/a> can assist as part of our LegalVision membership.
