Development Process
Our valuation development process is tailored to each business. According to USPAP, the development process typically begins with a comprehensive analysis of the company's financial statements, including revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities.

Qualitative aspects may include a company's market position, competitive landscape, intellectual property possessed, customer base owned, management team, and operational efficiency, not to mention the relevant legal and regulatory factors that may also affect a business's value, especially in industries such as renewable energy, credit insurance, banking and consumer finance.
