Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

A business valuation is a formal assessment of the economic value of a business or company. It uses a range of methods — including income-based, asset-based and market-based approaches — to arrive at a defensible estimate of what the business is worth at a specific point in time.
Common valuation procedures include the discounted cash flow (DCF) method, capitalisation of earnings, asset accumulation, comparable company analysis, and industry rule-of-thumb multiples. The right approach depends on your industry, size, and the purpose of the valuation.
If your valuation will be relied upon by banks, the ATO, courts, or a buyer in a formal transaction, then a certified detailed report is essential. For purely internal planning, an indicative estimate may be sufficient.
In many circumstances, the cost of a business valuation is tax deductible — particularly when obtained for income-producing purposes. We recommend consulting your tax adviser to confirm your specific eligibility.
A summary appraisal report is appropriate when you need an accredited valuation without the full depth of a detailed report. It's commonly used for internal planning, shareholder agreements, and some regulatory purposes.
APES 225 is the Australian professional standard for business valuation engagements issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board (APESB). Our reports are prepared in full compliance with this standard.
Our process begins with a free consultation to understand your objectives, followed by document collection, financial analysis, and report preparation. We apply recognised Australian and international valuation standards throughout.
Australian certified valuers follow APES 225 (issued by APESB) and the International Valuation Standards (IVS). Our team holds credentials from the Chartered Accountants Australia & NZ (CA ANZ) and the Australian Valuers Institute (AVI).
Yes. All of our certified valuers hold relevant professional credentials, including CPA, CFA, ABV and CBV (Certified Business Valuer, AVI) designations. Every report is signed by an accredited professional.
A certified valuation report is an accredited, signed document prepared by a qualified certified business valuer that meets the requirements for use in legal proceedings, regulatory filings, and formal commercial transactions.
We encourage you to discuss any concerns with your assigned certified valuer. If you believe a factual error has been made, we will review the report at no additional charge. Our goal is an accurate, defensible valuation — not a particular number.
