Business Valuation

Valuing a business is necessary in many circumstances. Our firm staff includes a licensed CVA (Certified Valuation Analyst) and ABV (Accredited in Business Valuation) recognized for special training and experience in business valuations. Business valuations have an enormous impact on strategic planning. Although most business owners choose a formal valuation only when financing or a similar transaction requires one, many events can trigger the need for a valuation including but not limited to, application for credit or a loan, creation of a stock-option or other benefits plan that involves company stock, seeking outside investors, dispute over the conclusions of an IRS audit, conducting a major strategic planning initiative, dissolving a partnership, an initial public offering of stock, divorce, bankruptcy, estate or gift planning that involves company stock, or sale of a company or a division. The professionals at Pontiff + Associates, P.C. have prepared hundreds of valuations for all of the above listed purposes. Our experience, training and unique resource materials allow us to prepare superior business valuations.
