Approach to business valuation service

At Crowe, we offer comprehensive and in-depth Business Valuation Services, helping businesses understand their true value in a dynamic business environment. With a combination of sharp financial analysis, extensive experience, and market insight, we assist clients in making strategic decisions, optimizing value, and maintaining a competitive edge.

We apply three globally recognized valuation methods to ensure objectivity and accuracy for each valuation situation::

Discounted Cash Flow – DCF

Evaluate the current value of a business by discounting the projected future cash flows. This method is particularly useful for valuing businesses with high growth potential and stable cash flows, making it suitable for M&A transactions and strategic planning.

Market Approach

Compare the value of the business with comparable transactions or with publicly listed companies in the same industry. This method provides an objective and up-to-date perspective of the business value based on current market data..

Net Asset Value – NAV

Valuation based on the total value of assets minus liabilities, suitable for companies with substantial tangible assets or when determining liquidation value. This method provides a solid foundation for business valuation in bankruptcy or restructuring scenarios.

Service Implementation Steps

Step 1: Initial Discussion Meeting

We discuss and define the objectives of the valuation, review relevant documents, and agree on the timeline for execution. During this phase, we also align on the collaboration approach and the necessary support from the client, as well as determine the most suitable valuation strategy and method. This step can be carried out via email or in-person meetings, depending on the client's situation.

Step 2: Valuation Planning

Based on the information and documents provided by the client, we outline a detailed valuation plan, including the identification of key factors and risk assessment. We also prepare flexible valuation methods, such as Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), Net Asset Value, and Market Comparison Approach, to ensure accurate and objective valuation results.

Step 3: Data Collection and Analysis

We collect necessary data from the client and relevant market sources to analyze the company's financial performance, cash flow, and capital structure. This phase includes conducting interviews with management, analyzing financial statements, and conducting a detailed assessment of assets and liabilities.

Step 4: Valuation and Sensitivity Analysis

We conduct a fair valuation of the target company based on the selected methods and perform sensitivity analysis on key assumptions. This process helps identify potential impacts on the company's value from both external and internal factors.

Step 5: Reporting and Discussion of Results

After completing the valuation process, we draft the valuation report and present the findings and recommendations to the client. The report will then be discussed and adjusted based on the client's feedback before being finalized and delivered.

Service Execution Timeline

Typically, we aim to complete the service within 4 – 6 weeks for most cases. For urgent cases with tight deadlines, we implement special measures, such as mobilizing additional resources, adjusting processes and procedures accordingly, and requiring active cooperation from the client.

The timeline for completing the service largely depends on the scope of work, feedback, and cooperation from the client (including stakeholders such as suppliers, customers, lenders, and investors).
