business valuation

More than numbers, newly launched Rosetta Valuations offers market value insight.

 

Rosetta Paul Corrigan headshot 08 18 16What is my business really worth?  That is the question itching at baby boomers and others who are considering an exit strategy.

Newly launched Rosetta Valuations, with offices at 541 Columbian Street, Suite 100, Weymouth, MA, was recently launched by seasoned business broker Paul R. Corrigan.  He now provides complete valuations services along with “Feet on the Street” experience.

Continuing to serve as a business broker, Corrigan understands that the critical starting point is a concise valuation to establish supportable value, based upon buyer’s concerns, clear company financial disclosure and in-depth analysis.

Corrigan has performed hundreds of valuations from simple reports to conflict resolution cases often over 100 pages.  One aspect that sets these reports apart is the proprietary Rosetta software that generates colorful charts and graphs to bring clarity to the subject.

In addition to managing Rosetta Valuations, Corrigan continues to serve as Executive Vice President of Sales at ROI Corporation, New England’s largest business intermediary firm.   In his role as business intermediary he helps business owners to value, market, and transition their small to mid-sized businesses, both to third party and internal family and/or key employees. Industries in which Paul’s work has focused include HVAC, home healthcare, property management, business services, manufacturing, distribution, and recreation.

Paul is a Board member of NEBBA, the New England Business Broker Association, and a licensed commercial real estate agent.  In staying current, he attends many continuing education courses each year in both real estate and business brokerage.

Currently a member of the Board of Directors at the Rotary Club of Weymouth, MA, Paul is very active in the large club of over 100 members and scheduled to be President a completing his term on the Board.

 

A Weymouth resident, Corrigan received his Masters from Cornell University and a BA from the University of Virginia.

The BBB is a campus-wide, business case competition held annually at Bentley University. Topham served as one of a dozen judges on the panel. Graduate and undergraduate students were divided into Junior/Senior and Freshman/Sophomore divisions and given a case study on Best Buy. They were required to review the business problems in the case, conduct research and develop their plan of action to solve the problem. The teams then formally presented their case to the judges. Monetary awards were presented to teams in first, second and third place.

According to Topham, “The Business Bowl helps to prepare students for the real business world. They are presented with complex business challenges and must determine how to solve these challenges. Not only do they develop a plan of action but they must execute it. They must show how they will successfully attain their objectives.”

Rodman & Rodman to Speak on Topic of “How Much is Your Business Worth” at Seminar on November 17th at the Newton Library

 

John P. McGovern, CPA, CVA, ABV

On Wednesday, November 17, 2010, Rodman & Rodman P.C., will speak to the Newton Retirement Planning Club on the topic of “How Much is Your Business Worth” at 7:00 p.m. in the Trustees Room of the Newton Library, located at 330 Homer Street in Newton. This seminar is open to the public and there is no cost to attend.

The seminar will be led by John P. McGovern, a CPA and Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA) at Rodman & Rodman, PC. He is Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV) and has over 20 years of experience in valuing privately held businesses in a number of different industries.

McGovern will discuss the importance of obtaining business valuations on a regular basis. Through business valuation, business owners gain a better knowledge of their assets versus liabilities as well as asset values for loan, divorce and estate planning purposes.

A business valuation performed by a qualified professional such as McGovern has the benefit of reducing uncertainty with respect to the issues of fairness, litigation defense and protection from taxing authorities who often challenge valuations that are not prepared with due professional care.

To reserve your seat at the “How Much is Your Business Worth” seminar, RSVP to Coordinator Richard Suder at 617-329-1185 or richard.suder@yahoo.com.
