Corporate valuations

In the course of the life of enterprises, the market value typically appears rarely, mostly in connection with a special event - such as a share purchase agreement, capital increase, in-kind contribution - objectively.

The market for shares and stocks is rather narrow, with few players involved (often a seller is opposed to some potential buyers), so there is rarely enough information available for valuation.

Businesses are unique and complex “products,” so their pricing is influenced by a huge number of factors, such as: future cash-flow generating capacity, existing contracts, quality of management, risks from past operations, available assets, to name a few.

Company valuation requires special expertise. We estimate the market value of companies using one of the most accepted methods, or a combination of them, according to international standards: discounted cash-flow (DCF), comparative company valuation or asset value methodology.
