Valuation Methodologies at DKS Capital Advisory
At DKS Capital Advisory, we do not apply a single valuation formula. We select the most suitable methodology based on the business model, industry dynamics, stage of the company, and purpose of valuation (M&A, fundraising, financial reporting, disputes, or strategic planning).
We typically use one or more globally accepted approaches:
Income Approach
Primarily through Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) to project future cash flows and determine intrinsic value. This includes:
-
Forecasting revenues, expenses, EBITDA, capex, and working capital
-
Calculating FCFF or FCFE
-
Using risk-adjusted discount rates (WACC) and terminal value
-
Scenario and sensitivity analysis
We also apply other income-based techniques such as excess earnings or royalty relief for intangible assets.
Market Approach
A. Comparable Company Analysis (Trading Comps)
We benchmark the subject company against listed companies or relevant private transactions based on:
-
EV/EBITDA
-
EV/Revenue
-
P/E, P/B, etc.
-
Sector-specific multiples (e.g., EV/subscriber, EV/AUM, EV/bed, etc.)
B. Precedent Transaction Analysis
We use M&A deal multiples of similar companies to estimate market pricing in real transactions.
The market approach is often used to cross-check DCF outcomes and to align valuation expectations with investor and market norms.
Asset-Based Approach
Used when:
-
Businesses are asset-heavy
-
Financial performance is weak or negative
-
Investment / holding companies or real estate entities
We apply:
-
Adjusted Net Asset Value (NAV)
-
Replacement cost or reproduction cost methods
-
Liquidation value in special cases
This approach is useful for banks, distressed situations, and certain sectors such as real estate, manufacturing, and asset-holding structures.
