Establishing an accurate practice valuation is a necessity when (1)
selling a practice In
most cases lending institutions and the courts require a formal
valuation to make their decisions.
If you are contemplating
selling your practice within the next two years, now
is the time to have the value established.
Establishing the practice value now and updating it on an annual
basis aids in the transition process and is valuable in your financial
and estate planning. Transition
Resources, Inc.
has been retained to perform valuations of dental practices throughout
the United States and Canada. We
use four different approaches in establishing a value; establishing a
high and low value of each approach and then average the highs and the
lows to arrive at a very accurate and fair value. Transition
Resources, Inc.’s valuations are readily accepted by lending
institutions as they provide the necessary information to enable a buyer
to secure funding. Realizing
a practice’s value is established by more than just numbers, Transition
Resources, Inc. takes into account a number of important,
intangible assets. Some of
these intangibles are; net profit, location, new patient growth, active
patient number, accounts receivable, equipment, staff retention, office
appearance, computer utilization, recare program, treatment provided,
lease and OSHA compliance. In a fee for service practice these
intangibles have definite value and must be considered. |
