In just a few short weeks Financial Year 2013/14 will close. When the results come in we will see good, bad, indifferent, respectable and some fantastic results from our range of clients.
The waiting buyers will seek out the fantastic and good with enthusiasm, the result supporting their desire to engage. The results in other categories will see the light of close scrutiny switched on and discussions about revised price, appetite for risk and possibly outright rejection will take place.
The times we are in, from a business value perspective, are a front of mind challenge for business owners and those planning sale or succession.
It seems to us that there is merit in making the balance of June, a time for pushing for the finishing line with as much strength as possible, whilst at the same time reviewing what needs to be done to make 2014/15 better.
Markets may remain the same, but focused, improving performance can increase value substantially.
