In this blog, we discuss the importance of business owners bringing a qualified attorney into the process early...when dealing with a potential buyer.

When I meet with company managements, it usually becomes quickly evident how vast the gulf is between how the talking heads on CNBC speak...and what I would call business "generalists"; i.e., everybody else. When discussing a firm's probable valuation, I'll sometimes refer to sector valuations in the public marketplace. When I witness blank responses, I realize I need to back up....

It seems so simple and equitable. Two friends (or colleagues) decide to go into business together and split everything 50/50. Decisions, profits, everything-right down the middle. In the beginning, this arrangement probably worked well. But, with the passage of time and experience, this arrangement might not be ideal. Partners find that they have different skillsets, workload expectations, financial needs, and time frames. [ 424 more words ]

Businesses with more than one owner need strong Ownership Agreements. Simple as that. It's rare that we meet a company with multiple owners, and find that important document is in order. Some companies rely on handshakes that took place decades ago. Others may have outdated contracts that don't fit the company's current size or ownership structure, while others don't contemplate how to handle relatively common disagreement scenarios.

We meet new business owners in a wide variety of business sectors virtually every week. The companies' sales and profitability levels, and overall success are all over the map. During our conversations, I usually ask the owner if he/she has an idea of their company's value (in buyouts). More often than not, the owner responds that "companies in their sector sell at ___x (some metric like operating income)." In other words, there is a common multiple that presumably sets the bar for future deals. [ 664 more words ]

This may seem like a strange question to be posed by a valuation shop. To be sure, there are excellent reasons why a valuation is very valuable. For instance, if a business (or marital) split is imminent and assets need to be divvied-up. Or, a company may need a periodic valuation to fulfill the needs of its ESOP obligations. In situations such as these, a business valuation is invaluable and worth the money. [ 448 more words ]

It is interesting to us how poorly understood business valuation processes are to business owners who, in turn, are the very folks who need to better understand what their businesses are worth. Knowing the value of a business is important for owners who need that information to strategize for the future, bring in new owners, buy-out departing owners, or to react to buyout offers.

We are getting a lot of questions from business owners who wonder what impact the Pandemic is having on the value of their businesses. While it is impossible to give a blanket answer, we would like to share some 30,000-foot dynamics that likely apply to most businesses. First, we believe that private business valuations are somewhat more stable over time than that of their public company counterparts. [ 301 more words ]
