Business Valuations

Many owners of small and medium size businesses know their companies inside out. Yet, they rarely know how much their company is actually worth on the open market.

We firmly believe that accounting numbers are the beginning, not the end of a business valuation and commit to assist clients by applying the most suitable valuation techniques taking account both the quantitative as well as the qualitative aspects of a business, industry and overall economy in determining value.

Our services include:

  • Equity valuation using discounted cash flow analysis
  • Equity valuation for merger and acquisition purposes
  • Goodwill valuation and impairment testing for audit purposes

 

Liquidations

  • K&F assists clients in the liquidation procedures in cases where a company’s shareholders decide to proceed with voluntary liquidation for any reason.
  • We undertake to arrange for the necessary shareholders’ and creditors’ meetings, bring the company’s records up to date and perform the necessary audits, realise the company’s assets and settle its obligations to the various stakeholders to liquidate the company.

 

Due Diligence

Due diligence is research into and examination of the background and financial condition, business operations and contractual obligations of a person or enterprise.

K&F assists clients considering investment, business relationship, acquisition or litigation to establish a complete, accurate and reliable vision of the subject in question so that realistic, fact-based decisions can be made.

Our services include:

  • Financial due diligence – focusing on the verification of the financial information provided, assessment of the underlying performance of a business and quality of its earnings.
  • Commercial due diligence – considering the market in which a business operates, and detailed assessment of the industry and current and potential competition likely to be faced.
