Most owners have a number in their head. The market has a different one. Transferable Value exists to close that gap — an independent read on what your company is worth to a buyer, and how to build value that actually transfers when it's time to sell.
Start a conversationA company can be profitable and still be hard to sell — because too much of what makes it work walks out the door with the owner. Transferable value is the portion of your business that a new owner can actually take over and keep running: durable cash flow, a team and systems that don't depend on you, and a story a buyer can trust.
The years, the risk, the reputation — real, but not always what shows up in a valuation.
Recast earnings, defensible add-backs, and multiples grounded in how comparable businesses actually sell.
The intersection of the two — and the gap we work to close before you go to market.
No black box, no dashboard to log into — just rigorous analysis and a straight answer you can act on.
We talk through the business — how it makes money, who it depends on, and what you're trying to do next. This shapes everything that follows.
We normalize the financials into Seller's Discretionary Earnings — the number a buyer actually underwrites — with add-backs that hold up to scrutiny.
We assess the factors that raise or lower the multiple: customer concentration, owner dependence, recurring revenue, systems, and growth.
We arrive at a defensible range using methods and market comparables appropriate to a business your size — not a formula pulled off a website.
You get a plain-English write-up of what your business is worth today, why, and the specific moves that would raise transferable value before a sale.
You want to know what to expect before you talk to a broker or a buyer.
You're a few years out and want to build value deliberately, not scramble at the end.
You'd simply like an honest, independent read on where your business stands today.
Transferable Value is an independent valuation practice built around a single question: what is a privately held business actually worth to a buyer? Every engagement gets direct, senior attention and a report written for your business — never a template with your name pasted at the top.
The focus is narrow on purpose: valuing privately held businesses, and helping owners grow the value that survives the transition to a new owner. If that's the question you're sitting with, it's the one we're built to answer.
