Methodology
How We Value Your Business
We apply the methods that are relevant to your business type. Not every method suits every business. We explain which we used and why.
EBITDA Multiple
Most common
+
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, multiplied by a sector-appropriate transaction multiple derived from comparable completed deals. This is the primary method buyers and lenders use to assess trading businesses. We apply current market multiples, not historical ones, and adjust for size, quality of earnings, and concentration risk.
Discounted Cash Flow
Strong forward visibility
+
The present value of projected future free cash flows, discounted at a rate reflecting the risk profile of the business. Most reliable for businesses with contractual or recurring revenue and strong forecast visibility. We stress-test the DCF against downside assumptions and present a sensitivity analysis showing how the valuation moves with key variables.
Comparable Transactions
Sale preparation
+
Valuation benchmarked against completed M&A transactions in the same sector and approximate size range. We use deal databases covering private transactions, not just public market data, which gives a more accurate picture of what buyers in your sector are actually paying today.
Asset-Based
Asset-heavy businesses
+
Net asset value adjusted for the market value of tangible and intangible assets. Most relevant for asset-heavy businesses, property holding companies, or situations where the earnings-based methods understate the underlying asset base. Also used as a floor value in distressed or going concern situations.
Revenue Multiple
SaaS and high-growth
+
Applied where EBITDA is not meaningful as a valuation anchor, typically for early-stage, pre-profit, or high-growth businesses where value is driven by revenue trajectory and retention metrics rather than current earnings. Common in SaaS, technology, and subscription businesses where ARR or MRR multiples are the market standard.
Written by people who work in transactions, not just valuations
Most business valuation services are produced by accountants whose primary frame of reference is tax, or by brokers with an interest in inflating the number to win a mandate. Financely values businesses from the perspective of how buyers and lenders actually think about them in a deal.
We apply the multiples that acquirers are paying in the current market. We identify the specific factors reducing your valuation and what can be done about them before you go to market. For most businesses there are two or three adjustments that materially move the number. Knowing what they are before a sale process is worth more than the report itself.
