Overview
A single valuation number is not a valuation — it is a negotiating position. A defensible valuation is a range derived from multiple methodologies, each with its assumptions stated, each producing a different number, and the reconciliation explaining why the final range is where it is.
The Business Valuation Framework Prompt applies four valuation methodologies to a single business, states the assumptions behind each, identifies which methodology is most appropriate for this business at this stage, and produces a reconciled range with the reasoning that makes it defensible in a negotiation.
What you get: - DCF valuation with explicit discount rate justification - Revenue multiple valuation with comparable company benchmarks - EBITDA multiple valuation (where applicable) - Comparable transaction analysis - Valuation range reconciliation: why the final range is where it is - Value driver analysis: the 5 factors that move the valuation up or down - Negotiation preparation: the floor, the target, and the ceiling
Built for: founders preparing for fundraising or M&A, investors conducting due diligence, and CFOs preparing for a transaction — who need a valuation that survives scrutiny, not one that was engineered to produce a desired number.
