So how do you calculate your company’s valuation? Here’s the simplest way to think about it: 1. Forecast Future Earnings: Start with what your business makes now and apply a growth rate. Example: Year 1: $100K → Year 2: $120K → Year 3: $144K. 2. Adjust for Time (Discounting): Money now is worth more than money later. Use a discount rate (e.g., 10%) to calculate what those future earnings are worth today. 3. Add Long-Term Value (Terminal Value): Estimate how much your business will be worth after 3–5 years. Example: Coffee shop: Discounted future profits = $330K. Terminal value = $500K. Total Valuation = $330K + $500K = $830K. Simple: future cash + long-term or you can go like this 1. Find a Key Metric: Use your company’s profit, revenue, or EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, etc.). Example: Your profit is $100K. 2. Apply an Industry Multiple: Look at what similar companies are selling for (e.g., 5x profit). Example: $100K × 5 = $500K valuation.
