Small and mid-sized businesses in Central Texas typically depend on four key value factors:

Seller's Discretionary Earnings
The main factor of determining value for small and mid-sized businesses is the total cash flow benefiting the owner - also known as Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE). SDE is calculated using the following six categories:

Once these categories are added together and an SDE is developed, a multiplier is applied. The multiplier can range from 1 to 5 (or more), depending on many factors, to arrive at the appropriate value for the business.

Risk
The second valuation factor is the level of risk. Factors in this category include:

Terms of the Sale
This is the one source of value that the Austin business seller can almost completely control. Components of the terms include:

In most business sales in Central Texas, the seller provides some level of financing to the buyer of the business. With seller financing, the seller receives part of the purchase price at the time of the sale ("the down payment") and the remainder over several years. The buyer uses the cash flow from the business to pay off the debt. Structuring a sale with attractive terms can significantly increase the value of a business.

Industry
Some businesses have a valuation equal to the seller's discretionary earnings (SDE) while other businesses are valued at five (or more) times that amount. An important reason in determining the multiple of SDE is the industry which the business is part of. Certain industries are more desirable than others. Factors influencing desirability include:

Valuing Your Business
