When assessing the value of your business or evaluating the reasonableness of a purchase or sale offer, you need qualified appraisers who have a reputation for proficiency, objectivity and reliability.  MKS&H’s valuation experts are highly experienced, certified professionals, who are committed to understanding the needs of our clients.  While many “consultants” or “experts” will tell you what you want to hear, at MKS&H, we are committed to telling you what you need to know to make an informed, managed decision. We continually strive to provide unbiased, defensible valuation reports for our clients.

Why should you get a business valuation?

Your main goal is to develop and increase the value of your business. An accurate business valuation provides your management team with a clear understanding of the business’s strengths and weaknesses that affect value, allowing them to focus appropriate attention and resources to specific areas to increase value.

Business valuations are most commonly needed to calculate estate tax upon death, split up family assets in a divorce, and negotiate value in a purchase, sale or merger of a business enterprise. Other common reasons include adequacy of life insurance, buy/sell agreements, bankruptcy and foreclosures. In all these cases, you need solid information to assist in your decision making process.

We provide business valuations and guidance by experienced professionals, including:

• Compensating damage claims
• Divorce settlements
• Bankruptcy or foreclosures
• Shareholder and partner disputes
• Estate, gift, and tax planning
