Core Valuation Methodologies We Teach

Each method serves different scenarios. Understanding when and how to apply them separates competent analysts from exceptional ones.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

Master the art of projecting future cash flows and selecting appropriate discount rates. We dive deep into terminal value calculations and sensitivity analysis that reflects real market conditions, not textbook assumptions.

Comparable Company Analysis

Learn to identify truly comparable companies and adjust for meaningful differences. Our approach goes beyond simple multiple applications to understand the story behind the numbers and market positioning.

Precedent Transaction Analysis

Navigate the complexities of transaction premiums and deal dynamics. We teach you to extract relevant data from precedent deals while accounting for market conditions and strategic motivations.

Asset-Based Valuation

Understand when asset values matter most and how to properly adjust book values for market realities. Essential for distressed situations, real estate-heavy companies, and certain industrial sectors.

Market Dynamics Shaping 2025 Valuations

Economic shifts and regulatory changes continue reshaping how we value businesses. Here's what's impacting our work right now.

Key Factors Changing Valuation Practice

Interest Rate Environment

Higher rates have fundamentally shifted discount rate assumptions and made growth stocks more sensitive to multiple compression. We're seeing renewed focus on near-term cash generation capabilities.

ESG Integration

Environmental and governance factors increasingly impact valuations beyond simple multiple adjustments. Understanding these risks requires new analytical frameworks and data sources.

Technology Disruption

AI and automation are changing competitive moats and cash flow predictability across industries. Traditional sector comparisons need careful reconsideration when technological adoption varies.

Real Experience, Practical Insights

I've watched junior analysts struggle with the gap between academic theory and actual deal work. The models that work in practice often look different from textbook examples. Our program bridges that gap by showing you what actually matters when valuations are used for real decisions.
