Description

Values of privately held enterprises are generally not comparable to publicly held enterprises for at least two distinct reasons. One: There is not a ready market of investors to buy stock in a private company. As such, in the value determination the valuator oftentimes deducts a "Lack of Marketability Discount" from the company value determined to adjust for the cost required to take a company public and/or sell the business through a broker. Two: Most privately held companies are much smaller in size than public companies.

We discover those important details that may down the road determine if your company is going to succeed or not. For example, one company forgot to consider freight charges on materials bought FOB shipping point. They forgot to include the effect of collections of accounts receivable on their cash flow. Both were major components of the projected budget. New companies often do not realize how high the cost of capital, equipment, installation or distribution can be. If your company is growing, Havard & Associates will help you analyze how expansion affects it.
