Business Valuation

While adhering to our core values, a Valuation Engagement with JD Ford will always involve four key components which underscore the Firm’s time-tested approach to valuations:

1. Professionalism - We move quickly and professionally to gather key data using an array of comprehensive questionnaires and client interviews. . The information we develop is applied to the industry’s most sophisticated methodologies – many of which were developed and improved by the Firm’s professionals. By relying on our time tested quantitative and qualitative measures, along with our extensive experience and background in M&A transactions, the Firm is able to provide timely, verifiable, and supportable valuations that are routinely relied upon by business owners and directors, investors, and financial institutions, among others.
2. Timeliness - We understand the time sensitive nature of Business Valuations, and we will work as quickly and efficiently as possible to provide you with a complete, thorough and accurate valuation of your business.
3. Understandability - Understanding a Valuation Report can be time consuming and confusing. Therefore, we produce our Business Valuation in a reader–friendly, straightforward format that is understandable to professionals and lay people alike. We take the time to explain the process and methods in plain English, removing the need for a finance translator.
4. Objectivity - Our Valuation Report is objective and clear, not necessarily telling you what you want to hear, but what is accurate and needs to be heard and considered. With a Valuation Report from JD Ford in hand, an informed and educated decision may be made to resolve the given question, whatever it may be.

As a supplement to our business valuation report, JD Ford often recommends the inclusion of Marketability Assessment.   For more information please click here.
