What is it?
Our valuation reports provide a thorough and accurate assessment of your company's fair market value, essential for making informed decisions, attracting investors, and planning for growth. Our methodology combines multiple valuation techniques to ensure a comprehensive analysis. Key sections include:
Valuation Methods:
Internal Methods:
Berkus Method (2022): Evaluates a startup's value based on qualitative factors like the soundness of the idea, quality of the management team, presence of a prototype, strategic relationships, and market roll-out or sales.
Risk Factor Summation Method: Assesses various risk factors (e.g., management, stage of the business, political risk, competition) and adjusts a base value accordingly.
External Methods:
Scorecard Method: Compares the startup to other funded startups, adjusting the valuation based on factors such as management strength, market opportunity, product, competitive environment, and need for additional investment.
Venture Capital Method: Calculates the potential future value at exit (e.g., IPO or M&A) and discounts it to present value based on the required return on investment.
Forecast-Based Methods:
Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Method: Uses future cash flow projections and discounts them to present value using a discount rate.
First Chicago Method: Considers best, average, and worst-case scenarios to provide a blended valuation based on the probability-weighted outcomes.
Valuation-Financial Forecasts:
Pre Money Valuation: The value of the company before new capital is raised.
Capital Raised: The amount of capital being sought.
Post Money Valuation: The value of the company after new capital is raised, considering the dilution effect on existing shareholders.
