Business Valuation Results

The estimated value of your business is NPV_VALUE.

**GRAPH**

The estimated value of your business is NPV_VALUE. This valuation is based on the present value of all future cash flows generated by your business. To calculate this value, we first calculated your estimated cash flow by year, assuming that your business would exist indefinitely. Each year's estimated cash flow was then discounted by WEIGHTED_AVERAGE_COST_OF_CAPITAL (your weighted average cost of capital) and the number of years until the cash flow would be realized. The sum of all of your future discounted cash flows is the net present value of your business.

Your cash flow was estimated in two parts: from your cash flow statement, and based on a future growth of EXPECTED_ANNUAL_GROWTH. Your business' predicted cash flow for years one through four was taken directly from the values entered for those years. For year 5 and beyond, your cash flow was estimated based on an annual compound growth of EXPECTED_ANNUAL_GROWTH.

What else can I do to increase my valuation?

Increase your operating profits:
You can directly impact your valuation by becoming more profitable. Increased efficiency and lower operating expenses can have a dramatic impact on your business' valuation. Even relatively small increases in profitability can have a dramatic impact on your valuation.
Reduce inventory and accounts receivable:
By reducing your inventory and accounts receivable, you can decrease the amount of capital that is tied up in your business. The net change directly affects your valuation.
Reduce your taxes:
Very much like reducing your inventory, reducing your tax burden can directly impact the value of your business. A business that creates effective tax shields can be worth substantially more than one that doesn't consider this important variable.
Effective capital expenditures:
Target your capital expenditures to projects that increase your growth rate, or increase your profitability. While capital expenditures reduce your near-term cash flow, effective investment in your business can have a positive impact in your valuation.
