What is your company worth? Well prepared with a neutral company valuation
You may have already experienced this: Differing views on the value of a company sometimes mean that joint solutions fail at the last minute. This situation can occur, for example, when selling a company as part of a business succession – agreements often fail due to different price expectations: The transferor quickly confuses the ideal and actual value of a life’s work. The potential transferee, on the other hand, would like a bargain and assesses the value too low.

To ensure that negotiations get to the point, we support you in determining the value. As a neutral expert, ABG Consulting determines the objective value of a company. This provides you with a reliable basis for discussion in order to quickly reach a consensus during sales talks, for example.

How do we determine the enterprise value?
There are a large number of methods for determining the value of a company, each with varying degrees of practicality. At ABG Consulting, we work according to the proven standard of the Institute of Public Auditors in Germany (IDWS1). Objectivity and neutrality are important principles here: We determine the value independently of the respective buyer or seller. In addition, the valuation is consistently geared towards the future development of the company. It is based on the earnings, liquidity and balance sheet situation and always keeps an eye on the relevant operational, financial and strategic factors.
Our valuation in four stages
- Basic analysis based on economic documents (benchmarking, pre-rating)
- Determining the strengths and weaknesses of the target company
- Analysis of past values and forecast of future development
- Determination of the company value including reporting
Principles of an appropriate valuation
We work closely with you to make a reliable statement on the value of your company. We use business development plans and documents as the basis for the process. This gives us the opportunity to reliably determine the value of the company through effective planning and meaningful sources.
