What is My Business Worth?

Get a free, confidential, indicative valuation for your Alberta business in less than 5 minutes.

If you are an Alberta business owner thinking about selling, now or in the next few years, understanding what your business is worth is the first step. This free tool gives you an indicative valuation range based on your industry, normalized EBITDA, revenue quality, and the key factors buyers actually use to price a business. No obligation and strictly confidential.

 

Valuation at the lower mid-market level is driven by more than just your bottom line. Buyers look at how dependent the business is on you personally, the predictability of your revenue, the strength of your management team, and the quality of your financial and legal records. This tool walks you through each of those factors and shows you exactly how they affect your multiple.

 

You will need a general understanding of your revenue and expenses for your last fiscal year. The tool takes about 5 minutes to complete.

How the Business Valuation Calculator Works

The calculator uses normalized EBITDA, industry multiples, and business-specific factors to provide an indicative valuation range. Factors such as recurring revenue, customer concentration, owner dependence, growth, management strength, and financial reporting can influence the range.


The result is an estimate rather than a formal business valuation. The final amount a buyer may pay can also be affected by cash, debt, working capital, taxes, transaction structure, due diligence findings, and negotiated deal terms.

​

An Alberta business valuation is influenced by more than revenue and earnings. Buyer demand, cash flow, industry concentration, owner dependence, recurring revenue, management depth, fair market value, and the quality of financial records can all affect the multiple applied during a transaction.

A calculator can provide a rough idea of what your business may be worth, but important strategic decisions should be based on a more comprehensive view of the company, the market and the proposed transaction. If you are preparing to sell your business, early advice can help identify issues that may affect value or the structure of the eventual deal.
