e-dec's Approach to Business Valuation

Business value is the monetary benefit arising from ownership of an interest in a business. Business valuation measures this benefit.

This concept of business value is simple but very powerful. Of course, great care is needed to formulate correctly procedures that measure this benefit and to apply these procedures correctly to a specific business situation. e-dec has applied modern economic and financial theory to develop a correct procedure for valuing business interests.

An owner benefits by sharing in the purchasing power created by a business. This benefit is forward looking - it is based on ownership of what is expected to be created in the future. The purchasing power generated in any year is measured by the cash flow to equity during that year. In this way, the benefit of ownership is the total value of the share in the expected future cash flow. Business performance must be forecast into the future in order to find the expected cash flows. As the future is uncertain, the valuation procedure must allow for the various kinds of risk and uncertainty facing the business. Then, the time value of equity must be found and the expected time stream of future benefits consolidated into a single equivalent value in todays terms.

e-dec's Business Valuation methodology deals with all these challenges - defining benefit, measuring cash flow to equity, forecasting business performance, allowing for risk and uncertainty, allowing for time, finding the time cost of equity and consolidating into a total value today.

This applies to business value in any of its forms:

  • value of a company
  • value of a subsidiary, a division or a business unit
  • value of an investment, a business project
  • value of a business idea, a business opportunity
  • value of a shareholding
  • value of a share or stock in a company
