Quick Business Valuation - online valuation
It is best to entrust the valuation of a company to an external valuator, i.e., experts who have experience and knowledge in the field of valuation. However, very often, an extensive and multi-page valuation report is not required, and it is enough to conduct a simplified valuation to estimate the company’s value.
Online business valuation is for you if:
- You want to know the estimated value of your company/shares as determined by an expert
- You are pressed for time (valuation results within 48 hours)
- You do not need a professional’s signature on an extensive report
- Price is an important factor for you (950 EUR net)
- You want to spend a maximum of 15 minutes answering questions

When is a simplified valuation not suitable? Business value calculation
A simplified company valuation is not suitable in the following cases:
- In legal matters
- For restructuring, liquidation, or changing the legal form
- In case of examining the profitability of an investment
- For reporting purposes, increasing share capital
- In any case where a valuator's signature on an official valuation is required In such cases, we recommend conducting a full company valuation, in which we specialize.
But it does give you an idea what is a realistic value and purchase price.
Differences between a full valuation and a simplified online valuation
Full company valuation
A company valuation is primarily characterized by significant complexity. To conduct a full valuation, we send a comprehensive list of questions regarding financial results, the way the company operates, and its specific characteristics. The list of questions often exceeds one A4 page – all to estimate the value as precisely as possible. The process from asking questions to delivering the valuation report can take about 2-3 weeks, depending on the complexity of the company. The result is a detailed valuation report of several dozen pages, signed by the valuator.
Online company valuation
An online company valuation is a much simpler process from the client’s perspective. We need answers to basic questions about the company and its latest financial statements. Based on this, our experts estimate the company’s value using two methods – the comparative method and the income method. Delivering the result in the form of a valuation report of several pages takes a maximum of 48 hours. The simplified valuation provides an estimated value and, most importantly, is conducted by our specialists using their knowledge and experience. This is neither a valuation performed by the customer themselves neither it is a business valuation calculator.

The simplification in this form of valuation lies in the lesser amount of information from the company regarding how it operates. We included information on how we approach the valuation process in our article: Company Valuation: 5 Essential Methods for Valuing Your Company.

Yes, but keep in mind that this form of valuation is simplified, and the report is sent without the valuator’s signature. Therefore, it cannot be used in legal matters, for example.
The valuation will be conducted using the income method and the asset method
Company Valuation Using the Income Approach, i.e., the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Method – is used to value companies that generate income and positive cash flows, with a well-established market position, allowing for the assumption of continued generation of such income and cash flows. This method requires the use of financial forecasts for the coming years.
Company Valuation Using the Market Approach determines the market value of the evaluated entity by comparing it to similar companies whose shares are traded on stock exchanges or are the subject of purchase-sale transactions on the non-public market. An analysis of multiples such as price-to-earnings, price-to-revenue, etc., allows determining the market value of the evaluated company.
The other commonly used one is a company valuation using the asset-based approach, but it is strictly depended on extensive information provided by the company, that is why it is not used for our quick valuation service.
