I have experience with this, I must say: share valuation depends on a few factors. Gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.

Another perspective: maybe the core problem with share valuation is something else. Think about it like this...

Look lets be honest, most business owners make the wrong choice in these situations. Be careful hasty decisions often end in regret.

I agree and Id like to emphasize that. I mean solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late.

If you post the result here it will help others too.

you're right. the only thing separatiing friendship from partnership is a written contract.

of course it varies if your situation is different.

Thanks, this was very helpful. Everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

You're right. Everyone rushing into share valuation gets stuck at the same point.

When we decide without measuring, we always end up in the same place. I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

exactly and not many people know this. if decision-making authority isn't defined it cauuses daily issues not just during exits.

if you dont write this down from the start it leads to arguments later then honestly hope this helps.

Thanks, that was the answer I was looking for. When you try to change everything at once, nothing settles.

Quick summary for newcomers: Everyone rushing into share valuation gets stuck at the same point.

The only thing separating friendship from partnership is a written contract. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Looking at it as a process, the picture changes. When you try to change everything at once nothing settles.

Valuation methods for exits must be defined by formula; "market value" isn't enough. If I were you, I'd go this route.
