If you’re a buyer, you seldom know what you’re paying for, how sound are the fundamentals of your target company, what are the hidden items, and of course, there are tonnes of intangibles like goodwill, employee talent, future value of any intellectual properties etc.

If you’re a seller, you don’t know which potential buyer is clean, has the wherewithal to keep your operations going smoothly, how much to share, terms of payments, finances, inventory, stock options, and intangibles. Most of all, you want to be very protective of your people – your employees, your customers, your vendors and channel partners, your executives, and your lenders.

In most cases, valuation is a lot more complex than all this. A fair valuation comes from thorough insightful analyses of every aspect of potential buying or selling entity. A good deal is where both parties come out as winners, and it takes exceptional eyes to identify that sweet spot.
