Valuation
• A determination of a monetary equivalent to the assets and benefits derived by ownership of a particular business or future business/opportunity.
• Ideally that which is invested [Spent] creates a positive rate of return over the life of the enterprise and above that of risk free alternatives resulting in a greater overall enterprise value.
• A Higher the anticipated risk demands a higher rate of anticipated return.
• Every Business has a value and that is ?? – Whatever the market will bare.– It is dynamic !

Exiting a Business
• Getting into a business is easy – getting out is where the challenge lies.
• Deciding on what exit strategy is appropriate– Leave, Sell, Pass on to family, pass onto employees
• Determining value !• Determining deal structure – Time value of money.
– I think this is as important as value !
• Finding a buyer.
Timing an Exit and Valuation
Value elements
– Hard or tangible assets• Inventory
– Finished Goods– Sub Assy’s– Raw materials
• Buildings, Equipment and Machinery.
– Soft or intangible assets• IP [trademarks, patents, licenses etc.]• Goodwill !!
– Other• Losses !!
Methods of valuation
• Multiples– Revenue – EBIT– EBITDA
• NPV – Cash-flow• Comparable• All of the above
Know the difference
Value of a stream of Future Cash flows – discounted to present value. If inflation is 5%. $100.00 today is only worth $95.00 in a year
Discount Factors / Risk• Inflation• Cost of equity• Cost of debt• Economic outlook• Market Position v Peers• Financials• IP• Product development• Etc.• Trajectory

Valuation – Fortunes change
Nokia v Apple. Situation reversed over a decade ago illustrating the dynamic nature of value.
“T”
• Most valuations will include a Terminal value or T value.• A business cannot be considered perpetual in regards of its
cash flow and so a tidy way of capturing the “balloon value” is used.
• Assume the business will be sold at the end of the period and will realize a cash benefit of $Y. $Y is added to the cash generated and discounted back.
• Or the NPV is treated by – Value*(1+Growth rate)/(Discount rate – Growth rate)
• The T value can be significant.
Beware the Source of Value
Tell owners the truth.
Where to Exit – in a perfect World
