Conclusion of Value

Our Conclusion of Value is a well-supported, written report that provides a clear,

professional opinion of the value of a business. Our conclusion is based on thorough

analysis and adherence to the rigorous professional standards of the National Association

of Certified Valuators and Analysts (NACVA). A Boyce Wealth conclusion of value report

clearly communicates the results, methods, and reasoning, enabling clients and decision-

makers to rely on credible and transparent valuation findings.

Key features include:

  • Clear identification of the business and interest being valued

  • A specific valuation date and purpose

  • Detailed explanation of the approaches and assumptions used

  • Full disclosure of limitations, scope, and supporting information

  • Consideration of all 3 NACVA-recognized approaches to value

  • A conclusion of value that stands up to scrutiny and supports informed decision-

    making

A NACVA-certified Conclusion of Value demonstrates independence, objectivity, and expertise—ensuring confidence for buyers, sellers, partners, and other stakeholders in every critical business transaction. This level of report is most appropriate in scenarios requiring a comprehensive, defensible business valuation supported by thorough analysis and adherence to strict standards.

Common scenarios include:

  • Business sales, mergers, and acquisitions where an objective opinion of value is essential for negotiations and transaction structuring.

  • Litigation support, such as divorce, shareholder disputes, and economic damages cases, where credible valuation testimony or reports are needed.

  • Estate and gift tax planning or reporting, where an authoritative value is necessary for IRS compliance and to support tax positions.

  • Buy-sell agreement establishments or disputes to ensure fairness between shareholders or partners.

  • Financial reporting requirements, including purchase price allocation or goodwill impairment testing under accounting standards.

  • Bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings, where the value of business interests must be determined.

  • ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) formation or annual updates needing independent, well-substantiated value conclusions.

  • Strategic planning or management decision-making that depend on a robust understanding of business value.

  • Support for loan or financing applications, where lenders require a formal opinion of value.

  • Charitable contributions of closely held business interests, to meet IRS appraisal requirements for donation purposes..

The depth, independence, and documentation provided in a NACVA Conclusion of Value are vital for the required reliability in regulatory and/or legal compliance situations.

At Boyce Wealth, we adhere to the strict standards put forth by the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts (NACVA) to deliver clear, well-supported business valuation reports.

Snapshot of Value

Our Snapshot of Value level of service is designed to give our clients a quick, efficient and

cost effective approach to assist in estimating a business’s fair market value. During a

Snapshot of Value Engagement, we select and agree with you on one specific valuation

method of the three NACVA-recognized approaches defined below to estimate your

company’s value. In most cases, the agreed-upon method is the Market Approach.

1. Guideline Company Method (Market Approach)

This method estimates your business’s value by comparing it to similar companies that have

been sold or publicly traded. We identify appropriate market multiples—such as price-to-

earnings or price-to-revenue ratios—from these comparable companies and apply them to

your business’s financial data. This approach provides an indication of value based on real-

world market activity and is particularly useful when relevant, comparable data is available.

2. Capitalized Earnings Method (Income Approach)

This method assess your business’s ability to generate future earnings and places a current value on them. We estimate the future benefit stream and then apply a capitalization rate that considers your company’s unique risks and growth prospects. By dividing the estimated maintainable earnings by this rate, we derive a value that reflects your business’s income- generating power.

3. Adjusted Net Asset Method (Asset-Based Approach)

This method determines the value of a business by adjusting the company’s assets and liabilities to their current fair market values. We calculate the value by subtracting your business’s total liabilities from the combined fair market value of its tangible and intangible assets. This method is especially relevant for asset-intensive businesses or when liquidation value is a key consideration.

At Boyce Wealth, we adhere to the strict standards put forth by the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts (NACVA) to deliver clear, well-supported business valuation reports. The CVA designation is the most widely recognized business valuation credential and the only business valuation credential accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCAA) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
