Valuation Services
Whether planning a company succession, devising carve-out scenarios or valuing a business in the eyes of shareholders - stakeholders always start with the same question: what is the value of my company and what is a realistic selling price that can be achieved on the market? FalkenSteg provides a reliable basis for decision-making.
Overview
A robust company valuation not only provides clarity in terms of personal company value expectations. It also allows for an evaluation of the purchase price bids from interested parties in the context of M&A processes. Furthermore, a company valuation can also serve as proof of due diligence for managers vis-à-vis stakeholders.
Above all, the valuation provides the entrepreneur with a fact-based basis for negotiations. Selling your life's work is a once-in-a-lifetime and therefore emotional event, whereas for the other side it is often just day-to-day business. This makes it all the more important to rely on a partner with proven industry and methodological expertise in valuing companies. FalkenSteg is familiar with the pitfalls and value drivers and provides objective and transparent support using standard valuation methods.
