Business Valuation
Knowing what your business is worth is essential — whether you are planning to sell, bringing in a partner, navigating a divorce, securing financing, or simply making informed strategic decisions. At Dominion Mind Inc, we provide credible, well-documented business valuations that give you a clear, defensible picture of your company's value.
The Right Number at the Right Time
Business value is not a single fixed figure — it depends on the purpose of the valuation, the method applied, and the quality of the underlying financial data. An informal estimate or a number pulled from a rule-of-thumb formula is rarely sufficient when the stakes are high. Whether you are negotiating a sale, settling an estate, resolving a dispute, or planning your exit, you need a valuation that is accurate, well-supported, and built to withstand scrutiny.
When You Need a Valuation
Business Sale and Acquisition
We provide valuations for business owners preparing to sell and for buyers evaluating an acquisition — giving both parties an independent, well-supported basis for negotiation.
Partner Buy-In and Buy-Out
When a partner is entering or exiting a business, we establish a fair, defensible value that protects all parties and provides a clear basis for the transaction.
Estate and Gift Tax Planning
We prepare valuations for estate planning and gift tax purposes, providing the documentation the IRS requires and helping minimize transfer tax exposure where possible.
Divorce and Marital Dissolution
We provide independent business valuations for divorce proceedings, giving attorneys and their clients an accurate picture of business value for equitable distribution purposes.
Shareholder and Partner Disputes
When ownership disputes arise, we provide an objective valuation that can serve as the basis for settlement negotiations or expert witness testimony in litigation.
SBA and Bank Financing
Many lenders require a formal business valuation as part of the loan approval process. We prepare valuations that meet lender requirements and support your financing application.
Succession and Exit Planning
We help business owners understand the current value of their business and identify the drivers that can increase that value in advance of a planned transition or sale.
Strategic and Internal Planning
We provide valuations for internal planning purposes — helping ownership teams make informed decisions about capital allocation, growth investments, and long-term strategy.
Valuation Approaches We Apply
Income Approach
Values the business based on its capacity to generate future earnings or cash flow, discounted to present value. Most appropriate for profitable, established businesses.
Market Approach
Values the business by comparing it to similar businesses that have been sold, using market multiples adjusted for the specific characteristics of your company.
Asset Approach
Values the business based on the fair market value of its underlying assets, net of liabilities. Most commonly applied to holding companies and asset-intensive businesses.
