EquityMaven can value companies in any one of the 124 countries which we have meaningful data for. 

We can value businesses in hundreds of different industries. The only broad categories of industries we do not value are primary energy, mining and financial services.

EquityMaven uses a Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) as our primary valuation methodology, as it’s widely considered as the most theoretically robust. We then use a Multiples Valuation as the secondary methodology to back up the findings of the DCF. Lastly, we use the Venture Capital Method as an additional valuation method for information purposes.

We use data from Refinitiv (previously branded Thomson Reuters) which includes information from companies representing 99% of the global market capitalisation, over 167 exchanges in 123 countries (54,500 active companies and 22,500 inactive companies).

EquityMaven uses the Thomson Reuters Business Classification which is the most comprehensive, detailed and up-to-date sector and industry classification there is. It includes hundreds of industries, so you should be able to find a close enough match. If you’re still struggling, please choose the industry that most closely describes your business operations.

Yes, you’re able to select from 52 different currencies which your company may report its financial statements in.

Our valuations are based on methodologies which are well known and respected within the valuation industry. Our reports are therefore legitimate and objective, and give you a detailed understanding into your company value. 

EquityMaven valuation reports should, however, not be considered as certified business valuations and should be used for informational purposes only. Our valuations rely on the accuracy and representations of client inputs which are not independently reviewed and verified (as required for certified valuations). EquityMaven valuation reports should therefore not be used for specific tax or legal matters including court proceedings.

The free valuation will give you an indicative multiples-based valuation estimate. If you want a more robust and defendable valuation figure using three different methodologies (along with a presentation) – you’ll need to subscribe to our service.

Once you pay, your subscription is active for a calendar month and it will automatically renew at the end of each month.

You may cancel the subscription services at any time during the subscription period through your Dashboard. Cancellation requests can be submitted at any time during the subscription period but must be submitted at least 7 (seven days) prior to the end of the current subscription period to avoid the subscription service renewing automatically. Please see EquityMaven’s Commercial Terms.

 

Valuations are typically event-driven, like when you’re buying or selling a business. These processes usually involve many months of negotiations and changes in assumptions and financial forecasts, which all affect a valuation. A monthly subscription therefore allows you to retain this service for as many different valuations as you need.

Payment may be made via Visa or MasterCard cards.
