Valuation for M&A

Beschreibung

Most owners and managers operate their businesses year after year without ever knowing what their company is worth, how much more a strategic buyer would pay to acquire it, what factors affect the company's stock value, whether they would be better off selling, and if so, how and when? Having provided valuation advisory services to thousands of companies and corporate executives, authors and valuation experts Chris Mellen and Frank Evans have developed proven techniques for accurately measuring and successfully building value in your company. Now in a second edition, Valuation for M&A: Building Value in Private Companies provides you with the tools to determine what your company's value is, what drives that value, and how to enhance that value during an M&A transaction and in daily operations--even when no stock price exists.
