Simulation-based business valuation: Methodical implementation in the valuation practice

Artikel

The simulation-based company valuation values a company on the basis of the risks actually present in the company without having to derive them from the capital market data. The simulation-based company valuation takes into account the market imperfections, such as the probability of insolvency or the lack of diversification, and fulfils the legal requirements and auditing standards for a company valuation. The simulation-based company valuation is an alternative to the CAPM-based company valuation, which, under the assumption of perfect capital markets, derives the risks through capital market comparisons. A simulation-based business valuation has many advantages and is particularly suitable for valuing medium-sized companies, start-ups, companies in a crisis, and for integrating country-specific risks into business valuations. Due to the internationally widespread use of the CAPM, a simulation-based company valuation is still rarely used in practice. This article shows which valuation formulas are necessary for the application of a simulation-based company valuation. These are used for both the certainty equivalent method and for the risk premium method. In a concrete and valuation example, the simulation-based business planning and company valuation is carried out, and the derived valuation formulas are applied in a way that allows a transfer to concrete valuation cases in practice. It is shown that the certainty equivalent method and the risk premium method lead to identical company values.
