Small business valuation
Our small business valuation calculator can value a business of any size, provided it is profitable or has a path to profitability. This is because our valuation methodology considers past and future earnings, as well as the associated financial risks. Our small business valuation methods include discounted cash flow analysis as well as market multiples analysis.
The valuation multiples for small businesses in South Africa are different to the valuation multiples for small businesses in the UK or small businesses in America. We use EBITDA multiples and earnings multiples and benchmark them against valuation multiples of other small businesses that we have valued.
Our database of small business valuation multiples by industry means that the valuation multiple for a restaurant will likely be different to the valuation multiple for a software company or the valuation multiple for an engineering company.
Our free business valuation calculator is perfect for small businesses.
