PURPOSE – EVIDENCE – VALUE

Company valuation for Informed Ownership Decisions

MAK Chartered Accountants L.L.C. provides Business Valuation Services for owners who need a clear assessment of their business. Our Independent business valuation work starts with the purpose, intended users, and available records. Tell us about your planned transaction so we can discuss a suitable scope.

Free Consultation

Our Company valuation service helps you understand the financial evidence behind a proposed business value. We review the records supplied and discuss the factors that may affect the conclusion. You receive an explanation linked to the agreed purpose rather than an unsupported headline figure.

Owners often need support when a shareholder leaves, an investor joins, or a sale is being considered. Each situation raises different questions. We assess those questions before selecting methods, requesting detailed records, or agreeing the report format.

Three evidence views for one business decision
01 / INCOMEFuture cash flow

Assess forecasts, timing, risk, and the return required by investors.

02 / MARKETComparable evidence

Assess relevant businesses or transactions and explain important differences.

03 / ASSETSAssets and liabilities

Assess underlying net assets where this suits the business and purpose.

Agreed purpose + valuation date + supported assumptions = a conclusion with context
Method selection depends on the assignment. The visual does not suggest averaging three figures.

Company valuation with a Defined Purpose and Date

We identify what is being valued before discussing a number. The subject may be the whole business or a particular ownership interest. The rights attached to that interest can matter, so a minority stake should not automatically be treated as a simple share of the total.

Company valuation with Clear Engagement Terms

Our proposed engagement identifies the valuation date, intended use, users, reporting scope, and information needed. We also discuss the basis of value, which explains the type of value being assessed. A change in purpose may require a different assignment.

A value conclusion relates to a date. Trading results, finance costs, customer demand, or market conditions may change later. We explain the period covered so you can understand how the conclusion relates to your planned decision.

Business Valuation Services for Owners and Investors

We support discussions about business sales, investment proposals, ownership changes, and financial planning. The work can help owners question assumptions before negotiations progress. We confirm the deliverables needed for your circumstances rather than assume that every assignment requires the same report.

Business Valuation Services with Evidence You Can Review

We assess how the supplied accounts relate to the business model. This may include revenue patterns, margins, working capital, debt, and unusual costs. Where adjustments are relevant, we explain their purpose and seek supporting records.

Our Corporate valuation experts service focus is careful analysis and clear reporting. Ask us about the proposed team’s relevant experience and responsibilities before appointment. We don’t rely on a label as proof that a report will meet every recipient’s requirements.

Independent business valuation with Transparent Assumptions

We discuss independence and potential conflicts before accepting an engagement. The proposed scope should identify relevant relationships and limits. If a recipient requires specific credentials or a particular approved provider, that requirement must be checked before appointment.

We keep management forecasts separate from the assumptions used in our assessment. A forecast is an estimate of future performance, not a promised result. We explain material information gaps so readers can understand their effect.

Valuation and Advisory Services for Transaction Preparation

We help you connect the value assessment with the decision you intend to make. This can include questions about funding, shareholder discussions, or proposed changes in the business. Additional transaction work needs an agreed scope.

Where the financial structure also needs review, our corporate finance and restructuring support can be considered separately. Valuation work alone does not arrange finance or negotiate a completed sale.

Business valuation services in Dubai for Different Business Models

A service company, trading firm, and asset-heavy business may require different evidence. We assess how the company earns money and what supports its future performance. Customer concentration, supplier terms, and owner involvement may affect the analysis.

Business Valuation Services Dubai: A Scope Built Around Your Records

We review the quality and coverage of available information before agreeing a schedule. Recent accounts may need explanations or supporting schedules. Records that are incomplete can increase the work needed and may limit the conclusion.

Our Business valuation service UAE offering can support companies with operations in more than one emirate. Share the legal entities, locations, and ownership interests involved. We then confirm which businesses and reporting periods the engagement will cover.

Professional Business Valuation Services in Dubai

We assess income and market approaches where suitable evidence exists. An income method considers expected future cash flows and risk. A market method considers relevant comparison data, with adjustments for differences that affect value.

An asset-based assessment may be relevant for some businesses or circumstances. It requires attention to the assets, liabilities, and their measurement. We don’t assume that book values always represent the value of the business as a going concern.

These methods can produce different indications because they consider different evidence. We explain why an approach was selected and how the conclusion was reached. The IVSC explanation of business valuation standards describes the role of scope, inputs, methods, and reporting.

Business Valuation company in Dubai, UAE

Choose a provider by assessing the proposed work, relevant experience, and reporting terms. Ask what records will be reviewed and how assumptions will be explained. We discuss these matters before you decide whether to appoint MAK.

Business value and shareholder value are not always the same measure. Cash, debt, and other adjustments may affect the relationship between enterprise value and equity value. We define the measure used rather than apply one formula without checking the facts.

Where the records reveal wider issues in reporting responsibilities, our financial control assessment service can be discussed separately. Stronger controls can improve the quality of future records, but they don’t replace the valuation assessment.

Business Valuation Services in Dubai, Abu Dhabi & the UAE

We can discuss a coordinated assignment for businesses with operations across the UAE. The proposal should identify the entities included and the information required for each one. Group structures may need attention to related balances and shared costs.

Business Valuation Services in Dubai, UAE

Our work can include a documented assessment and a discussion of the conclusion, within the agreed terms. Reports should state the material assumptions, sources, limits, and permitted use. Tell us early if a bank, auditor, investor, or other recipient has specific requirements.

Records We Request Before Starting the Assessment

  • Financial statements and recent management accounts.
  • Forecasts with explanations of sales, costs, and investment needs.
  • Ownership records and details of the interest being assessed.
  • Loan schedules, cash balances, and material liabilities.
  • Major customer and supplier contracts, where relevant.
  • Details of unusual income, costs, disputes, or commitments.

We agree a suitable way to exchange sensitive records. You should identify documents that are missing or subject to restrictions. We may request additional information as the analysis develops.

If your reporting process needs attention first, our accounting system assessment can help review the underlying process through a separate engagement. The value assessment should reflect the quality of the evidence actually available.

Discuss Scope, Reporting Needs, and Professional Fees

Our Company valuation consultation starts with your purpose, target date, and intended users. We discuss the business size, structure, available records, and proposed deliverables. These details help us assess the effort required before providing a fee proposal.

Timing depends on the agreed scope, record quality, and responses to information requests. We explain key dependencies before work begins. A deadline should allow time for questions and review rather than assume that every report can be completed immediately.

Our Company valuation report can explain how changes in key assumptions affect the outcome, where suitable. This helps you assess uncertainty before using the conclusion. It does not guarantee a transaction price, funding result, or acceptance by a third party.

Discuss Your Valuation Requirements

Five Answers Before Appointing Your Valuation Provider

When should I arrange a business value assessment?

You can request an assessment before a proposed sale, investment, partner exit, or ownership change. Tell us who will use the report and why it is needed. We confirm whether the proposed scope suits that purpose.

Which records will you need from our company?

We usually request financial statements, recent management accounts, forecasts, ownership details, debt records, and key contracts. The final list depends on the business and assignment. Missing records may affect timing and the strength of the conclusion.

Do you use one method for every business?

No. We assess the business model, purpose, available records, and market evidence. An income method, market comparison, or asset-based assessment may be suitable. We explain the selected methods and relevant limits in the agreed report.

Will the report guarantee a sale price or bank approval?

No. A value conclusion applies to its stated date, purpose, assumptions, and scope. A negotiated price can differ. Banks, buyers, courts, and other users may have separate acceptance requirements that should be checked before work begins.

How can I obtain a fee and completion estimate?

Contact MAK through the consultation form or WhatsApp +971 50 276 2132. Share your activity, ownership structure, report purpose, target date, and available accounts. We assess the work required before providing a proposed fee and schedule.
