Startup Funding Espresso -- Factors Impacting Valuation
Factors Impacting Valuation Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Valuation is a major issue in selling your business. Here are some key factors impacting the price: The size of the company buying your business -- the bigger the company, the higher the potential price. Demand for your company -- the more buyers in the mix, the higher the valuation. Form of payment -- taking stock will typically generate a higher selling price. Earnouts -- the use of earnouts can increase the valuation. Competitive advantages -- the more advantages your business has, the higher the price. Current economy -- the stronger the current economy and market, the higher the price. Target use of the company -- the higher the value of the combined company, the higher the buying price. Past valuations -- the higher the valuation from previous funding rounds often results in a higher buying price. Relationships -- the stronger the relationship with the buying team, the higher the price in some cases. Consider these factors in preparing your business to sell.\xa0 \xa0 Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.
