Maximising Business
Valuation
As CEO you're expected to build a business with real value for exit.
The truth is that, when the time to exit comes, 80% of businesses who enter a sale process fail to sell (Forbes) - indicating that the majority of CEOs do not build value.
Don’t be one of the statistics.
Be a leader who effects change and delivers a major shift in valuation by building your business strategically and making decisions backed by data and intelligence.
Every business which has been through our Valuation Strategy process has achieved a valuation above industry benchmarks.
Our 4-Step Plan to Valuation Transformation
Step 1
Strategise
Invest in a Valuation Strategy to define the steps to a higher valuation.
Don’t believe benchmark multiples are the limit. We'll analyse your Company to understand core assets and capabilities and overlay this with our data, intelligence and experience of the tech, talent, buyer and investor ecosystems. Together we'll clarify your business vision and define a strategy that meets your ambitions and keeps you in control.
Step 2
Build
Embark on your Valuation Programme to maximise your valuation.
Your Valuation Programme will make crystal clear which strategic activities will deliver the biggest shift in valuation. Our support in the delivery of these projects will ensure you're maximising your time playing to your strengths. Our strengths lie in:
-
Functionality
-
Strategic positioning
-
Portfolio Analysis
-
Buy-Side Intelligence (Identifying acquisition targets)
-
Culture
-
Modelling
Step 3
Accelerate
Keep one step ahead and measure your progress through The Endeavour Platform.
Not only will you have real-time access to your business health and valuation progress, you'll also maintain knowledge of your evolving buyer universe and have quick access to all intelligence, market mapping and your data room. The Endeavour Platform will take all the friction out of future transactions by ensuring your business is prepared for any buy or sell process.
Step 4
Transact
Make informed decisions based on data to accelerate your business.
Where appropriate we'll work together to execute transactions to fund your business and acquire the right high growth assets to maximise value according to your Valuation Strategy.
Steve came to Bean Partners looking to sell his business for a fair value to the right buyer who would take care of his team. He had been told his business could be sold at a multiple between a typical range of 8-12x EBITDA, Bean Partners sold it for a multiple of 21x EBITDA.
“Despite the words of warnings from friends, CEO colleagues and other advisors, about the perils and stresses of the process - those stresses never materialised. I honestly believe that this is due to the way Bean integrated themselves into the process, proactively navigating me and taking real ownership of all key aspects.”
