The Gladstone Valuation

The Gladstone Valuation

More Than Metrics:
Valuations That Reflect Your Legacy

As experts in privately-held RIAs and investment advisory businesses, we deliver the most insightful and accurate fair market valuations, quickly and at a reasonable price. Knowing current industry multiples is a critical component to delivering informed valuations.

Our Approach

Industry-specific knowledge is essential to calculating the true market value of your business. We go beyond simplistic revenue multiplication formulas, which are inadequate for Gladstone clients.

Our proprietary valuation model, refined over years of experience and enhanced by our work with web-based digital dashboards, considers:

  • Complex details and drivers unique to your firm
  • Market dynamics impacting your sector
  • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) showcasing your strengths
  • Private market comparables reflecting your firm’s standing
  • Premiums and discounts
  • Important future value overlays to AUM-Revenue-EBITDA-EBOC

“Mastering and integrating spread sheets, P&L’s and Balance Sheets while harboring technology will ensure a successful outcome; but truly listening to clients helps to add value to Valuations.”
