Contents of the valuation report


Clear valuation result and plausible valuation range

The 13-page business valuation Online report begins with a clear valuation. Besides the valuation, you can also see the range of valuation of similar companies. In addition, the Value Driver Score indicates how the company performs overall against similar companies in value-relevant factors. The score summarizes various areas such as dependence of the company on the owner, market position, growth potential, employees, cluster risks and industry-specific factors.

Thanks to our international market data, the company valuation is available online for different countries and currencies. The report is available in English, German, Italian, French and Spanish.

Careful analysis of the profitability of the company

We calculate the most important financial ratios in a simple and understandable way. The aim is to derive the adjusted key figures, which show the current profitability of the company. In doing so, we take particular account of adjustments, which are especially important for SMEs. This includes adjustments such as private expenses of the owner, cooperation of family members and extraordinary expenses and income.

Extensive analysis of relevant market data

NIMBO has its own uniquely comprehensive dataset of purchase offers for SMEs in many different countries and industries. Based on the location of the company, the company size and the industry, you will get an overview of what similar companies are currently receiving for purchase offers and how they have developed over time. In addition to the mean value, the range of the valuationis also displayed in each case.

Overview of the individual value driver scores

The market data of the peer group is adjusted for individual factors that distinguish the company being valued from the peer group. NIMBO takes into account dozens of qualitative value drivers. The effects of these value drivers are based on NIMBO’s large database of purchase offers. The NIMBO Value Driver Score is explained in more detail on the following pages.

Valuation taking into account the NIMBO value driver score

What are the strengths and weaknesses of the company compared to other similar companies? Based on hundreds of purchase offers, NIMBO analyzes the influence of qualitative value drivers on the purchase offers received. The individual qualitative factors can be divided into 6 categories:
– Owner & Management
– Growth & potential
– Market position
– Stability & Balance
– Employees
– Industry-specific factors

Detailed analysis of the individual value drivers

Each individual value driver is considered in detail on a separate page. Several questions are answered for each value driver. The score is based on empirical analysis of hundreds of purchase offers for similar companies. You can see how the company compares to similar companies and what impact this has on the company valuation.

Method used for the company valuation calculator


Company valuation online with own market data for multiples

NIMBO collects its own market data for company valuation. For this purpose, known purchase offers for similar companies are considered and applied to the company under consideration using the multiple method. This involves observing at what multiple of a certain key figure (EBIT, EBITC, sales, etc.) companies from the same industry, the same country and the same size class were valued on average. NIMBO collects hundreds of these evaluation multiples each year. More information on this widely used valuation method can be found in our overview of valuation methods.

Adjustment of the multiple by company-specific value drivers

The next step is to adjust the valuation multiple of the peer group to factors that are specific to your company. This is based on empirically observed average effects on the level of purchase prices received and includes factors such as dependence on the owner, potential, risks and much more. We take these factors into account and, using our own database of real quotes for comparable companies, derive the company valuation and show in the test report where your company stands within the range of observed multiples.

The role of the “EBITC” multiple for the valuation

EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes) is the operating profit before interest and taxes. In the practice of company valuation, it is a very central ratio. In order to obtain a very first, rough estimate of the business value, it can be multiplied by an industry-specific multiplier (“EBIT multiple”). If the owner and the managing director are the same person, the result of this calculation is often distorted in the case of smaller companies by a remuneration that is not in line with the market. The wage in this case is self-determined, and the amount may depend on various factors. Depending on private needs, the current liquidity situation of the company or tax and other considerations, it may be too high or too low. This distorts the true earnings position of the company. The NIMBO database contains a large number of real purchase offers for small and medium-sized companies. A statistical evaluation of the NIMBO data material has shown that the consideration of the EBIT before deduction of the managing director compensation allows a significantly better prediction of received purchase offers than the EBIT multiplier alone. We have created the term “EBITC” for this purpose. (“Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and CEO Compensation”). The EBITC eliminates the need for a discussion about market-based compensation for the owner. The company value calculation according to the EBITC multiple method makes the companies more comparable and thus the result of the company valuation more plausible.

FAQs


What is the difference of NIMBO’s enterprise value calculator compared to other providers?

NIMBO is the only online business valuation based on its own extensive and up-to-date market data with hundreds of real purchase offers for SMEs. Every month, NIMBO adjusts the algorithm to adjust the rating to the actual purchase offers received. Thanks to the extensive data, NIMBO can also empirically capture the influence of qualitative factors (dependencies, risks, potentials, etc.) and incorporate them into the company valuation. With a 13-page evaluation, the assessment report is very comprehensive. In addition, the company valuation is specifically geared for small business valuation, kept simple and understandable for the layman. The company evaluation does not require registration and there is a detailed free version.

Where does NIMBO get the data for the company valuation?

NIMBO asks every company owner who completes an evaluation with us if they have received an offer to purchase their company in the past two years.

How do qualitative factors flow into the valuation of a company?

NIMBO’s uniquely comprehensive data set allows us to observe not only the current market multiples for individual industries and countries, but also how these multiples change on average when one company outperforms others in a qualitative characteristic (for example, lower employee turnover).

The company value test is particularly suitable for established, especially owner-managed SMEs, with up to 100 employees. Expected values for the future should be comprehensible and realistic.

No. NIMBO uses the multiplier method. This is based on the status quo of the company. A startup must be evaluated with an eye to the future and is a lot more subjective than evaluating an established company. For the valuation of startups, a simplified business valuation should not be performed online. Other valuation methods, such as the discounted cash flow method are applied.

Valuing a company is never an exact matter. An online business valuation can provide an initial indication and complement other valuation methods. The NIMBO company valuation shows what kind of purchase offers other similar companies are currently receiving on the market. However, it can never take into account all company-specific factors. However, the company valuation provides a good initial starting point.

If individual years are not representative for the future development of the company (rapid growth, new business areas, etc.), you can also hide individual years. Adjustments may be made for extraordinary expenses and income in individual years.

Do you use Nimbo’s business valuation calculator when selling a business?

When selling a company, however, you should definitely consult a specialist who will look at the company in detail.

We monitor market multiples for the respective country, industry and company size. The lowest 25% and the highest 25% of the observed buy offers are truncated. The valuation range is thus from the 25% to 75% quantile. Where the company valuation lands within this range depends on company-specific factors.
