Company Valuation Analysis

Unlock full report

Going Concern Valuation

The going concern valuations value the company on the basis that it continues to trade without the threat of liquidation for the foreseeable future. These valuations are primarily profit and cashflow based.

Valuations		Valuation Measures
Estimated High Value	£XSI,000	Retained Profit	£YX,000
Estimated Mid Value	£YY,000	EBIT	£SY,000
Estimated Low Value	£X,000	EBITDA	£SSX,000

Liquidation Valuation

The liquidaton valuation values the company as if it were to cease trading and assets were subject to rapid disposal to cover liabilities. This valuation is primarily asset based.

Valuations		Valuation Measures
Estimated High Value	£XY,000	Total Assets	£XIX,000
Estimated Mid Value	£Y,000	Net Assets	£YX,000
Estimated Low Value	£S,000	Tangible Equity	£SX,000
The above valuations are based on our own algorithms and take no account of many factors that can influence actual valuations realized and should not therefore be assumed to be accurate.
