Independent Business Valuations for Nottingham SME Owners

Selling a business, entering an M&A process, or planning an exit is the most significant financial decision most business owners will ever make. The outcome depends on one thing above all else: knowing, with confidence and documentary support, what your business is genuinely worth.

A professionally prepared, ICAEW-grade valuation gives Nottingham business owners that foundation. It is a signed report — not an estimate, not a broker’s guide price — that documents your normalised EBITDA, applies current sector multiples from real UK deal data, and produces a defensible conclusion you can put in front of any buyer, their advisers, or private equity firm.

What the Valuation Covers

Normalised EBITDA

We rebuild your profit from three years of accounts, removing owner salary above market rate, one-off costs, and non-recurring items to produce a clean, defensible earnings figure.

Sector Multiple Benchmarking

We apply current transaction multiples from your sector, drawn from UK and European M&A deal data. For Nottingham businesses, we consider the local buyer landscape and sector dynamics in East Midlands.

Value Driver & Risk Analysis

Recurring revenue, customer concentration, management depth, and margin quality each move the multiple. We document exactly where your business stands on every factor before a buyer can use them against you.

Signed Professional Report

Personally prepared and signed by Kishen Patel ACA. Not a template, not automated. Produced to the standard expected by sophisticated buyers and their advisers. Verify ICAEW membership.

Fully Remote — No Office Visit Required

We work with business owners across Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, Birmingham, and throughout East Midlands entirely remotely. All financial information is shared securely, the process is managed by video call and email, and the signed report is delivered digitally.
