How to Prepare
To help our appraisal team complete your report efficiently, here’s some information that will be useful to gather along the way. Don’t worry if you don’t have everything upfront—we’ll guide you through the process in the Data Collection Portal:
5 Years of Financial Statements (or Tax Returns)
You will choose to upload either financial statements (Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet) or tax returns of the business for the last five full years or since inception if less than five years. Tax returns are usually preferred if you are buying or selling a business; however, financial statements are usually preferred for strategic planning purposes. Consult with your advisor, lender, or CPA regarding their preference.
Year-to-Date Financial Statements
You will also be asked to upload a year-to-date financial statement through the valuation date, provided by month. Be sure the year-to-date financials are through the same valuation date. It is preferred to use a month-end, quarter-end, or year-end date when possible.
5 Years of Subsidiary Financials (if applicable)
If your business has subsidiaries, you will be asked to upload financial statements for the last full five years or since inception if less than five years.
Trailing 12 Months Profit& Loss Statement (optional)
