Business Valuation & Litigation Support

The process of establishing the worth of a company requires a multi-disciplinary examination of the business, coupled with professional judgment that comes from training and experience.  An accurate and defensible assessment of the value of a business involves the application of standards, formulas and pertinent financial, tax, economic and industry data.  The purpose of a valuation is critical to determining the standard of value applied to an asset, and values may differ sharply; a value for acquisition purposes will differ distinctly from—and require a different approach than—values for tax purposes, shareholder disputes, estate planning, divorce, liquidation or other purposes for which business valuations are needed.

A Sullivan & Company professional, highly trained in business valuation techniques, can provide an objective analysis to assist you in the valuation of a closely held company or any business in which you have an interest.  To discuss your business valuation requirements, contact Michael Pendergast, CPA, MST, ABV, by email at mpendergast@SullivanCPA.com, or call him at 401.272.5600.
