Certified Business Valuations are performed by Certified Valuation Analysts (CVA) to provide an objective, defensible, and detailed assessment of your business’s true worth.

Unlike a broker’s informal opinion of value, often based on general rules of thumb or market comps, CVAs follow rigorous financial standards, complying with IRS and legal guidelines.

The report is specifically for your needs (tax planning, litigation, divorce, buyouts, SBA lending, formal exit planning, etc)

🔍 Depth & Accuracy: A CVA dives deep into your financials, risk profile, growth potential, industry benchmarks, and cash flow, not just surface-level estimates.

⚖️ Credibility: CVAs are recognized in court, by CPAs, wealth managers, and the IRS, making them invaluable in legal and financial planning
