Annual Business Valuation
Article
As
a result of the need to ensure and evaluate successful
creation of transgenerational wealth, many privately held
and family owned businesses, particularly those that have
survived
multiple generational transfers, have instituted a policy of
having an
independent business appraiser or financial analyst
conduct an annual valuation of the firm.

Case Studies
Our case studies are designed to provide
in-depth examples of how specific company factors, internal
and external, may affect
the valuation of a business enterprise.
Global Communications: Wealth creation versus wealth
destruction should be regularly monitored in the
transgenerational family business.
Isis Rental Management: An ESOP is an alternative for
company owners seeking liquidity. A competent valuation is
a key element of the ESOP process.
JNC Shipping Corporation: Strong Corporate Governance and
communication are important for creating and maintaining value
in a family-controlled enterprise.
Morpheus Aerospace: "Demand capital" versus "patient
capital" is an important factor in the investment decisions of
family and closely held companies.
Patriot Industries: Company value should be revisited
regularly and underperforming assets should be improved or
divested.
The
Canteen: A valuation sometimes identifies underperforming
operations, thus alerting the prospective acquirer to potential
issues to be addressed.
The Flower Shoppe: A valuation before the transaction
would have highlighted large non-recurring revenues, thus
averting the crisis that ensued after the acquisition.
Triumvirate Industries: Companies that excel at the seven
attributes of businesses that have created transgenerational
wealth are in a better position to create value for their
shareholders.

business valuation, strategic advisory and
financial analysis firm for family owned and privately held businesses,
