Business Valuations typically depend on several key value factors that include:

Cash Flow
To arrive at the appropriate value for the business an assessment of the cash flow is performed in connection with a financial analysis to determine how a lender might evaluate the transaction. Valuations in the small and lower middle market range generally are driven in large part by lenders. A transaction and presumably a successful sale must provide the buyer with sufficient cash flow to not only service the debt incurred to purchase the business, but also provide a sufficient return that in many cases includes, at least in the small market arena, a livable wage for the new owner.

Risk
The second valuation factor is the level of risk. Factors in this category include:

Terms of the Sale
This is the one source of value that the Austin business seller can almost completely control. Components of the terms include:

In most business sales in Central Texas, the seller provides some level of financing to the buyer of the business. With seller financing, the seller receives part of the purchase price at the time of the sale ("the down payment") and the remainder over several years. The buyer uses the cash flow from the business to pay off the debt. Structuring a sale with attractive terms can significantly increase the value of a business.

Industry
Some businesses have a valuation equal to the seller's discretionary earnings (SDE) while other businesses are valued at five (or more) times that amount. An important reason in determining the multiple of SDE is the industry which the business is part of. Certain industries are more desirable than others. Factors influencing desirability include:
