Standard Business Valuation Report
One of the common challenges in buying or selling a business is receiving a valuation that feels impersonal or unclear, especially when there’s no direct contact with the appraiser to explain the details. At BizWorth, we believe a credible, accurate business valuation requires more than just numbers—it needs personalized service to guide informed decisions.
Our Standard Business Valuation Report includes all the features of our Essentials Report, such as hand-picked business comparables and tailored adjustments made by the appraiser, but goes further by adding loan eligibility analysis to determine whether the business can afford the loan payments that would be necessary to purchase it, industry benchmarking, and the income approach for a deeper understanding of the business's value.
Prepared by a NACVA Certified Appraiser, this 35+ page report offers a clear and detailed view. Along with the report, you'll receive a Personalized Video Summary and a consultation with the appraiser to ensure you fully grasp the findings. Plus, with upfront pricing and no hidden fees, you’ll know the cost from the start. Whether you’re buying or selling, our comprehensive approach delivers the credible valuation and support you need. Ordering is easy—get started in minutes.

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:
3 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 three full 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. 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.
Trailing 12 Months Profit &Loss Statement (optional)
If your business is seasonal, then we highly recommend uploading a Trailing 12-Month Profit & Loss Statement. This will allow your valuation expert to better understand how to forecast revenue and expenses for the remaining months of the current year.
