Discounted cash flow
Forecast cash flows, risk, discount rate, terminal assumptions and scenario sensitivity.
Methodology
A conclusion is only as useful as the evidence and reasoning behind it.
Method selection is purpose- and fact-specific. WorthPrism keeps source evidence, adjustments, calculations, scenarios and review decisions connected so the final reasoning can be inspected.
Capitalization of earnings
Maintainable earnings, normalization and a risk-adjusted capitalization rate.
Guideline public companies
Operating comparability, observed trading multiples and company-specific adjustments.
Precedent transactions
Relevant deal evidence, timing, transaction context and comparability.
Asset-based approaches
Underlying assets and liabilities where an asset perspective is relevant.
Equity allocation
Waterfalls, option-pricing, probability-weighted outcomes and complex security rights.
From record to conclusion
Four connected layers of work.
- Source evidence. Financial statements, operating data, ownership records, forecasts and relevant market evidence.
- Normalized facts. Documented adjustments, definitions, period alignment and data-quality flags.
- Inspectable calculations. Applicable methods, scenario analysis, sensitivities and reconciliation.
- Professional judgment. Assumption approval, method weighting, limitations and responsibility for the report.
Purpose matters
The same company can require a different answer for a different decision.
Valuation date, standard and premise of value, ownership interest, intended use, users, jurisdiction and permitted reliance can affect scope and conclusion. Those terms belong in the engagement—not in a generic calculator.
