Understanding the value of your business?

Valuation of your business

We carry out business valuations in many situations: prior to the sale of a company, but also in the event of shareholder disputes, to determine the value of Intellectual Property (IP) or a brand, for the determination of inheritance tax, in the event of a gift of shares and for the determination of business-related damages.
It is therefore no coincidence that Aeternus is the corporate finance firm with the largest number of Certified Valuators (“Register Valuators”) in the Netherlands and over 20 years of experience in business valuation. Importantly, we are one of the few firms with a leading M&A practice, which allows us to test our valuations daily against real outcomes in the transaction practice.

Answers to your questions

What is the value of my business?

How much is my business worth? This is a question every entrepreneur asks himself on a regular basis. Profitability is certainly not the only factor. And value does not equal price.

What is the difference between value and price?

As a first step in the sale of a company, we determine the value of the shares. However, this is not a price. The number of buyers, market conditions, financing possibilities and dealmaking, among other things, influence the price.

How is the value of a brand determined?

A brand is not tangible, so how can you express it financially? A question many entrepreneurs ask themselves. There are a wide variety of methods to determine the value of a brand. As experts in the field, we know which method is applicable.
