What is my business worth in Florida? Get Real and Don’t be the Fisherman February 12, 2018  by  Michael Shea PA   (Edit) Just the other day I was in my CPA’s office and one of the partners saw me and took me to the break room. Seems one of his clients was paying a outside firm a fee to tell him what his business was worth. I’m sure if you are a business owner of any duration of time that you have gotten: direct mail, faxes (yes there are still faxes), email, and cold calls all soliciting you for the opportunity to tell you what your business was worth and to “oh by the way” receive a handsome fee. In this particular case the CPA was asking me if I ever saw a 5 multiple…..in honesty I had to tell him no. Further qualifying it I said….”5 multiples are for businesses getting netting well over 1 million dollars in ebitda and even then that is rare indeed”. What was so funny about the conversation was that by this time 3 other CPA’s had joined in and we actually w...

Confidentiality is an important factor in the successful sale of any business and should be taken seriously. Preserving the value-adding aspects of your business like your customer base, relationships with reliable vendors, experienced employees, and your market share helps you command a good price for your company. A breech in confidentiality can create havoc for a seller trying to sell it for the highest possible value. Unfortunately, in many cases, when the word slips out that you are looking to sell your business, people can’t help but talk. And that is when the rumors start, which can spread as quick as wildfire. It’s human nature to resist change. The rumors may start to make your employees feel anxious and worry about their future. They may start looking for new jobs and also share the concerns of the business sale with your customers. This could trigger a negative reaction and your customers might start looking for another business to work with. When customers and em...

Goodwill When Buying or Selling A Business October 31, 2017  by  Michael Shea PA   (Edit) man and woman shaking hands in front of laptop A business’s true worth is often far more than the value of its individual parts. When buying or selling a business, goodwill represents the value of the business that is above and beyond the worth of separately identifiable tangible business assets. Unlike physical assets, like buildings or equipment, goodwill is an intangible asset. What Are the Factors that Contribute to the Creation of Business’s Goodwill? Business goodwill reflects the synergy among the various assets in a well-run business that are used to generate revenue. Although it can be difficult to price, determining the value of goodwill can make a company more valuable. However, since the components that make up goodwill have subjective values, there is also a risk that a business could over or undervalue goodwill during a business valuation. Business owners may be...
