From selling a business to retirement planning, partnership negotiations, divorce proceedings, and estate planning, there are many reasons why someone would need a business valuation. Although the empirical data has vastly improved since the early days in this field, professionals still prioritize understanding each business individually and utilize several different valuation approaches including market, cost, and income to build a comprehensive business valuation.

In this episode, Larry Heller, CFP®, CDFA®, is joined by our guest Karl Janhsen, CPA, P.C. who shares his journey into the complex world of business valuations.  While there is more science involved now, it still requires a sense of art. Karl also shares an interesting and challenging valuation case involving a biotechnology company that developed a revolutionary chemotherapy delivery system.
