Baseline Valuations and EV Growth Roadmaps
Enterprise Value Growth Platform
Growing your enterprise value is a science.
Private company valuations often lack insight.
Three issues plague SMBs/SMEs and middle market companies when it comes to evaluating a company’s value:
- Value maximization for privately-held businesses frequently focuses on the wrong areas.
- Traditional valuations do not provide insight on how to maximize value.
- Difficulty establishing a data-driven growth plan to maximize enterprise value.
We address all of these in with our 3-tier process.
Companies that want to grow need insight.
Growth requires:
- Insight into the drivers and levers that drive the most value, as well as the gaps between your current position and desired outcome.
- Control of and visibility into the implementation of your growth strategies.
- Trusted implementation frameworks, tools, reporting, and communication with all stakeholders that increase your chances of successful implementation.
Our 3-Tier Process
Tier 1: Analysis and Planning
Step 1: Baseline Business Valuation
We assess and determine the appropriate multiple using economic, industry, and business-based risk scores.
The report identifies gaps to determine potential value, such as:
- profit gap
- benchmarking
- exit readiness
- attractiveness
An advanced valuation index allows us to assess the value-potential of each business with precision and prioritize actions that will have the greatest positive impact on valuation.
With our enterprise value growth roadmap included in Tier I, you get a valuation and exact steps to reach maximum value, competitively priced at 50-70% less than a traditional valuation.
Step 1 continued: (Private Valuation Index)
The index we use for baseline business valuation and enterprise value growth roadmaps is based on:
- Over 700 business valuations collected over a twelve-year period
- Over 1,000 data points
- Over 10,000 client engagements
The index is recalculated with each new valuation and regularly updated based on changes in economic factors, industry trends, and business sentiment.
The index drives roadmap creation due to the insight it brings into company value drivers.
Step 2: Enterprise Value Growth Roadmap
Once the gaps have been identified, we create a roadmap that provides valuable recommendations for tracking key metrics that drive valuations and project potential value over time.
We provide an detailed list and timeline of each value-maximizing activity and when to complete them.
You can implement these recommendations on your own or work with us to do so.
Gain insights that supercharge your value-increasing activities!
Tier 2: Roadmap Execution, Growth, and Scale
Step 3: Implement Roadmap Recommendations, Grow, and Scale
Implementing the roadmap recommendations requires focus, operational excellence, and discipline. Implementation frameworks, tools, and experienced execution oversight increase success rates significantly.
This tier of the enterprise value growth platform focuses on implementing the recommendations across your business and monitoring/communicating with all relevant stakeholders.
By implementing these recommendations, we can assess the appropriate multiple using economic, industry, and business-based risk scores.
We can then monitor and track these actions on a monthly basis, dynamically revaluing the business each quarter with updated financials.
This process allows us to measure progress, hold stakeholders accountable, and empowers informed decisions.
Get ready to supercharge your value-enhancing activities and focus on activities that drive the most value!
Tier 3: Collaborative Valuation-Multiple Increase
Step 4: CoLabor™ Platform
Our invite-only collaboration platform, where synergistic companies work together to increase their value multiples, all while maintaining control. This is a powerful way to accomplish enterprise value growth.
Overcome the SMB/SME valuation-ceiling and work with others to become more valuable.
