Our Business Valuation Process

"As a former Gunderson lawyer, I co-founded Eton to bring the precision, efficiency, and the obsessive client service of corporate securities law to business valuation. I'm especially proud that our worldwide team of Big 4 trained CFAs has adopted that client service mantra wholeheartedly.

Our entire focus is on delivering audit-defensible, rigorous, and timely valuations without the inefficient back-and-forth of other firms. Client service is our religion. We always go the extra mile to overdeliver for every client."

FAQs

What business service valuations do you provide in Las Vegas?

Eton provides a range of business valuation services for small businesses, family offices, and private equity firms in Las Vegas. We’re a boutique firm, focused on excellent customer service and deep expert advice. 

Las Vegas and Nevada have specific regulations that your valuation specialists should know. For example:

  1. Tax Climate: Nevada’s favorable tax environment, notably the absence of a state income tax, can positively influence business valuations by potentially enhancing profitability. This aspect is particularly relevant for your services related to estate tax valuation and possibly for advising on Qualified Small Business Stock Analysis under IRC 1202.
  2. Gaming and Hospitality Regulations: For valuations in the gaming and hospitality sectors, compliance with Nevada Gaming Control Board regulations is essential. This is relevant for complex securities valuation and portfolio valuation that include assets in these sectors.

  3. Intellectual Property and Intangibles: The valuation of intangibles and goodwill impairment (ASC 350) may be influenced by the dynamic and innovative business environment in Las Vegas, especially in emerging sectors like tech, entertainment, and Web3 & Crypto assets. Nevada’s evolving legal framework around digital assets and intellectual property can affect these valuations.

  4. Real Estate and Zoning: For services like Purchase Price Allocation Support (ASC 805) and M&A Valuation Support, understanding local real estate and zoning laws is crucial, as these can impact the valuation of physical assets and operational premises in Las Vegas.

  5. Compliance and Regulatory Environment: For all valuation services, especially those involving complex securities (ASC 820 / 815 / 825 / 470) and transaction advisory, staying informed about state-specific compliance requirements and the regulatory environment is key. This includes regulations around emerging assets like cryptocurrencies, where Nevada’s stance on blockchain and digital currencies can impact valuation methodologies and outcomes.

  6. Economic Factors: Las Vegas’s economic reliance on tourism and entertainment affects the valuation of businesses in these and related sectors. Economic fluctuations can therefore influence a wide range of valuation services, from portfolio valuation to advisory services in M&A transactions.
