Business Valuation Estimator

What is your business worth? This tool produces an indicative valuation range using three methods — earnings multiples, revenue multiples, and asset-based value — weighted by your sector and business characteristics.

Step 1 — Financial inputs

Use your most recent full financial year figures. If your EBITDA is negative or very low, the asset-based method will carry more weight.

Total turnover for the most recent financial year
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation & amortisation
Total assets minus total liabilities from your balance sheet
Used to calculate the earnings yield and P/E based valuation
Step 2 — Business profile
Step 3 — Value quality factors

These factors adjust your valuation multiple up or down. They reflect what a buyer or investor will scrutinise beyond the financial statements.

Revenue concentration risk

How dependent is the business on its largest customers?

Key-man dependency

Can the business operate without the owner / founder?

Recurring revenue quality

How predictable and contractual is the revenue base?

Financial records quality

How well documented and auditable are your financials?

Intellectual property & competitive moat

Does the business have defensible competitive advantages?

Management team depth
