Know The True Value of Your Business

The First Step to Strategic Selling or Scaling

The worth of your business doesn't just rely on numbers—it's also about understanding the true financial and strategic value of what you've built. At First Turn Capital, we provide market value analysis (MVA) and business valuation services that go beyond surface-level calculations.

We look at your business from every angle—financials, industry benchmarks, buyer interest, and growth potential—so you get a valuation that actually reflects real-world demand. We provide a full-spectrum assessment of what your business is worth and how to position it for the best possible outcome.

With our expert services, you get the insight you need to make the right financial decisions.

Why Market Value Analysis Matters for Your Business

What Is Market Value Analysis (MVA)?

Market value analysis (MVA) is an external, market- and data-driven tool built to help evaluate your business. This means that instead of focusing solely on financials, it looks at how your company is valued in the real world based on factors like:

    • Demand across different industries or market types
    • Competitive standing
    • Investor and buyer sentiment
    • Economic and market conditions in relevant industries

Market conditions change all the time. What your business was worth last year—or even last quarter—might not be what it's worth now. Knowing where your company stands in the market helps you make better financial decisions whether you're selling, looking for investment, or simply preparing for growth in the long term.

Ultimately, market value analysis asks,
"What would someone actually pay for
this business right now?"

What Is Business Valuation?

How Business Valuation Shapes Strategic Decision-Making

While market value analysis focuses on external market conditions, business value analysis is an internal assessment that calculates your company's worth based on its financial health, assets, and earnings potential.

Business valuation focuses on:

    • Revenue and profit margins
    • Assets and liabilities
    • Cash flow and financial performance
Business valuation asks,
"What is this business worth on paper, based on its financials?"

Frequently Asked Questions

Helping You Make Informed Decisions

  • What is a market value analysis?

    A market value analysis (MVA) is a detailed evaluation of what a business is worth based on current market conditions and industry trends. Unlike business valuation which primarily looks at financials, an MVA considers demand, investor interest, and economic factors. This helps business owners understand what their company is worth.

  • How do I calculate market value?

    Common ways to estimate market value include comparing recent sales of similar businesses in your industry, using valuation multiples based on revenue, earnings, or cash flow, applying market-driven metrics (e.g., market capitalization for public companies), and considering investment demand and buyer trends in the market. A formal market value analysis from First Turn Capital provides a more comprehensive, accurate evaluation.

  • How do policymakers identify weak and strong markets when conducting market value analysis?

    Policymakers use market value analysis to assess local real estate markets, economic conditions, and investment opportunities. They rely on data from census block groups and local economic reports to identify stronger markets that attract investment versus areas that may need public subsidies to encourage development.

  • Why do public officials and investors care about market value analysis?

    Market value analysis isn’t just important for business owners—it’s also a tool for public officials, investors, and developers. Local governments use it to allocate public subsidies, assess neighborhood economic conditions, and determine where to encourage reinvestment. Investors, on the other hand, use MVA to identify high-growth businesses and industries where their capital will generate the highest returns.

  • How does market value analysis apply to housing units and traditional neighborhood boundaries?

    In real estate and local economic development, market value analysis is often used to assess housing unit demand and property values. It helps policymakers determine whether specific areas are attracting reinvestment or requiring economic support through grants, incentives, or infrastructure improvement.
