Business valuations
It is essential to know the value of your business. When selling shares to family members or employees, tax authorities require a valuation by an expert. Furthermore, in case of disputes or other discussions regarding the company’s value, an independent valuation by a Registered Valuator is crucial.
You will find that specialist at Taurus.
What is the value of your business? This requires an accurate calculation
To ensure objectivity, business valuations often involve benchmarking the company against industry peers and other investment options. A solid valuation supported by a trusted advisor can help mitigate disputes.
Determining the value of your business
How does a business valuation work?
The value of a business depends on all kinds of factors. Our NIRV-registered valuation expert knows these processes in detail and knows exactly which information is essential for a reliable valuation. For example, the company’s position in the market, the balance sheet ratios and the expected cash flows. The valuation is primarily based on the most widely accepted method (discounted cash flow), but also incorporates other methods such as recent transactions and current multiples. This approach ensures a well-founded valuation.

Acquisition Firm of the Year
At the Fusie & Overname Jaarcongres 2023, organized by Brookz & Dealsuite, Taurus Corporate Finance has won the award for "Acquisition Firm of the Year" in the Large category. This highly prestigious award is given annually to companies that guide merger & acquisition processes. Qualification for the title takes place on the basis of the number of successfully guided purchase and sale transactions, as well as the transaction value.
Value or price?
While a business valuation serves as the foundation for a selling price, it does not necessarily equate to the actual selling price. The price is heavily influenced by other factors, including market conditions (supply and demand), the buyer’s capabilities, and the strategic value the business holds for the acquirer.
