Business Valuation Opinion of Value FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a business valuation opinion of value?
A business valuation opinion of value is a practical report that helps estimate what a business may be worth based on its financial performance, market position, risk profile, assets, growth potential, and relevant valuation indicators. It is designed to support planning, sale preparation, acquisition review, partner discussions, financing conversations, or internal decision-making.
Is an opinion of value the same as a certified business valuation?
No. An opinion of value is generally a practical, advisory-style valuation report and should not be treated as a certified appraisal, legal valuation, tax valuation, or court-ready expert report unless specifically prepared by the appropriate credentialed professional for that purpose. It can still be very useful for owners who need a clear, decision-ready view before negotiations, planning, or strategic discussions.
When should I get an opinion of value for my business?
Business owners often request an opinion of value before selling a company, buying a business, raising capital, negotiating with partners, planning succession, considering a buyout, or preparing for financing. It can also be useful when you want to understand whether your expectations are realistic before entering a negotiation or spending time with buyers, investors, or lenders.
What information do you need to prepare an opinion of value?
We typically request recent financial statements, revenue and expense details, business history, owner involvement, customer mix, assets, liabilities, industry context, growth expectations, and any known risks or unusual adjustments. The more accurate and complete the information is, the stronger the valuation discussion can be. If records are limited, we can help identify what is missing and explain any assumptions clearly.
What factors influence the value of a business?
Business value can be influenced by profitability, cash flow, revenue stability, customer concentration, industry trends, growth potential, owner dependence, systems and processes, assets, liabilities, competitive position, risk, and the availability of comparable market data. A strong valuation discussion looks beyond revenue and considers how attractive, transferable, and sustainable the business is to a buyer or investor.
Will the report tell me the exact price my business will sell for?
No valuation report can guarantee an exact sale price. A business may sell above or below a valuation range depending on buyer demand, deal structure, financing, negotiations, market conditions, due diligence findings, and strategic fit. An opinion of value helps you understand a reasonable range and the factors that may support or limit value, but the final transaction price depends on the market and negotiation process.
How much does an opinion of value cost and how long does it take?
Mikel Consulting opinion of value reports start at $1,500 CAD. Typical turnaround is 5-7 business days after we receive the required financial and business information. Final pricing and timing can vary based on the quality of financial records, business complexity, number of revenue streams, valuation purpose, and the level of explanation required.
Can an opinion of value help with negotiations or financing?
Yes. An opinion of value can help owners, buyers, partners, and advisors enter discussions with a clearer view of value drivers, risks, assumptions, and a practical valuation range. It can support negotiation preparation, sale planning, acquisition review, partner buyout conversations, and financing discussions, although it does not guarantee approval, investment, or a completed transaction.
