Why Business Valuation Matters

A robust business valuation provides clarity on what your company is worth and why. Whether you are raising investment, planning an exit, or making strategic decisions, an accurate valuation strengthens your negotiating position and credibility.

Our valuations are practical, investor-aware, and grounded in real market dynamics.

A Bad Valuation Can Cost You Millions (Or Trigger an Audit)

Do not rely on “back-of-the-napkin” math or automated online calculators. When the stakes are high, you need certainty… from an ICAEW Chartered Accountant.

Stop Leaving Money on the Table

Preparing for an exit? Most founders drastically undervalue their intangibles and IP. We dig deep to identify hidden value drivers, ensuring your exit price reflects your potential, not just your history.

Resolve Disputes Without Destruction

Shareholder exits and matrimonial disputes can destroy a business. We provide an objective, independent voice of reason. Our impartial valuations provide the clarity needed to settle disputes fairly and quickly.

Secure Investment with Confidence

Investors smell uncertainty. If you can't defend your numbers, you lose credibility. We arm you with a defensible, data-driven valuation model that stands up to the toughest Due Diligence from VCs and banks.

Legal & Matrimonial Proceedings

Providing objective valuations for dispute resolution or divorce settlements.

Shield Yourself from HMRC Inquiries

Strategic Planning & Future Positioning

Understanding your company's value drivers to plan for future growth.

I’m Kishen Patel. I combine the technical rigour of a Big Four with the commercial mindset of an Investment Banker.

Many online valuation services will plug your numbers into a generic algorithm and spit out a range. That is dangerous. An algorithm cannot defend your assumptions to a buyer, nor can it explain your business nuances to a tax inspector.

At Consult EFC, I personally oversee your valuation. I challenge the assumptions, pressure-test the forecasts, and ensure that the number on the page is one we can defend together.
