Reports compliant with CICBV standards, recognized by Canadian courts, the Canada Revenue Agency, Revenu Québec, and financial institutions.

Expertise

The Fair Market Value of Your Business

Business valuation determines the fair market value of a company's shares. Engaging a Chartered Business Valuator (CBV) ensures an objective, independent, and defensible value — before any fiscal, judicial, or financial authority.

At the forefront of current standards, our partners can establish the fair market value of your business for any situation. Each report is independently reviewed by a second partner to ensure an impeccable standard of quality.

Which type of report is right for you?

In accordance with CICBV standards, three types of valuation reports are available based on the level of assurance required, the intended use of the report, and the information available.

Comprehensive Valuation Report

  • Exhaustive examination and analysis of all relevant data
  • Complete corroboration of information
  • Detailed report presenting all conclusions

Highest level of assurance. Rarely required in an SME context — more applicable to large transactions or significant litigation.

Valuation Report — Estimate of Value

  • Examination and analysis of available data
  • Limited corroboration of information
  • Less detailed than a comprehensive valuation report

Preferred for litigation, tax planning, and transactions where an intermediate level of assurance is sufficient.

Valuation Report — Calculation of Value

  • Examination and analysis of available data
  • Little or no corroboration of information
  • Less detailed than an estimate of value report

Preferred for litigation, tax planning, and transactions where a reduced level of assurance is sufficient.
