Company Valuation

We use our heritage as a lever to provide realistic, defendable guidance on private-market transactions. What is your enterprise actually worth? The question matters to buyers and sellers; the metrics are imperfect. Do you value a firm based on ratio analysis or asset-replacement value? How should you qualify intangible assets? Is there a premium or discount demanded by the macroeconomy? We answer these questions. As deal makers, we complement the work of established accounting firms.

Going Concern Appraisal

Our background in public securities markets is the foundation for our private-sector activity. We look beyond heuristics to frame a true portrait of your company. Our efforts center on the strategic backdrop for your operations. We draw on our professional network to ensure that illiquid or intangible assets are positioned properly. Cybersecurity metrics are part of our valuation efforts.

For international clients, our work is more than a bolt-on to traditional analysis. Complex issues include foreign-exchange, regulatory, and political risk, often in an environment where comparables are thin or non-existent. Our project design covers on-the-ground assessment of local issues. We frame that insight with our understanding of global industry trends.

Valuing young companies is an imprecise endeavor. We avoid the pitfalls of heuristics, digging deep into business strategies, intangibles, and revenue expectations. The end result is plausable, not whimsical.

Competitive Analysis

Why guess what commercial opponents are doing? Understanding your revenue stream in a cyclical context can enhance capital-raising campaigns or merger negotiations. Our analysts are prepared to provide original insight on your market position. You can focus on running your business, while we conduct field interviews and dissect social-media channels.

Real Estate Strategy

Building your portfolio of risk-appropriate commercial property demands both on-the-ground research and thoughtful networking among industry experts. With an eye on exit potential, we assess deal viability and financing options. We empower you with proprietary analysis so that you can streamline discussions with brokers and lenders.

At the Workbench

At Cranganore, we build our worldview by triangulating among day-to-day newsflow, on-the-ground discussions, and a time-tested array of consulting work. We leverage this technique in project assignments.
