VALUATION MODEL EXAMPLE EXCEL DESCRIPTION

This product (Generic Company Valuation Financial Model) is an Excel template (XLSX) with a supplemental Excel document, which you can download immediately upon purchase.

MODEL OVERVIEW
Company valuation is the process of determining the economic worth of a business using methods such as income-based (e.g., discounted cash flow), market-based (e.g., comparable company analysis), or asset-based approaches. It involves analysing financial performance, risk factors, market conditions, and ownership structure, with adjustments for private companies such as discounts for lack of marketability (DLOM), control premiums, and size-related risk. The goal is to estimate a fair value that reflects the company's ability to generate future returns.

Our comprehensive company valuation model is designed for business owners and investors to estimate a business's value based on user-defined assumptions within a structured, easy-to-use framework. It enables users to:
•  Project future financial performance and position: with a 5-year, fully integrated 3-statement forecast, incorporating assumptions for revenue growth, margins, operating and capital expenditures, working capital, and financing needs.
•  Determine indicative business valuation: using multiple approaches (Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), Comparable Company Analysis, and Net Asset Value) while applying private company-specific adjustments such as DLOM, control premiums, and size-related risk factors.
•  Analyse and interpret valuation results: including weighted average valuations across methodologies, implied valuation multiples, and valuation breakdown by shareholder.

The model adheres to established best practices in financial modelling, with built-in instructions, validation checks, and error controls to ensure transparency, accuracy, and ease of use.
