valuation

A company valuation using methods such as discounted cash flow, comparable public companies, and earlier similar transactions. It produces a valuation range and shows the assumptions that influence it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Mergers and acquisitions, fairness opinions, investment decisions, portfolio updates, IPO pricing, and board presentations.
Why use it?
Using several methods helps compare different views of what a company may be worth and reveals which assumptions drive the result.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

valuation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/valuation — Company Valuation Analysis

What This Command Does

Performs a comprehensive company valuation using one or more standard methodologies: Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), Comparable Company Analysis (Trading Comps), and Precedent Transaction Analysis. Produces a valuation range with a football field summary and identifies key value drivers and sensitivities.

When to Use

  • Preparing for M&A advisory (buy-side or sell-side)
  • Fairness opinion support
  • Strategic investment decisions
  • Portfolio company valuation updates
  • IPO pricing analysis
  • Board presentations requiring independent valuation views

How It Works

  1. Data Gathering: Collects available financial data — revenue, EBITDA, net income, capital structure, growth rates, and margin profile
  2. DCF Analysis: Projects free cash flows (typically 5-10 years), determines appropriate WACC, calculates terminal value (Gordon Growth or Exit Multiple), and derives enterprise and equity value
  3. Comparable Companies: Identifies relevant public comparables, pulls trading multiples (EV/EBITDA, EV/Revenue, P/E), applies to target financials with appropriate premiums/discounts
  4. Precedent Transactions: Identifies relevant M&A transactions in the sector, analyzes deal multiples, adjusts for market timing and deal-specific factors
  5. Synthesis: Triangulates across methods, presents a valuation range, and highlights key assumptions and sensitivities

The agent documents every assumption, flags data gaps, and provides sensitivity tables on critical inputs (WACC, terminal growth rate, exit multiple).

Example Usage

Input:

/valuation company:"TechCorp AG" method:all currency:EUR

Output:

# TechCorp AG — Valuation Analysis
## Date: 2026-03-14 | Currency: EUR | Standard: IFRS

### Executive Summary
Implied equity value range: EUR 420M – EUR 580M (EUR 21.00 – EUR 29.00 per share)

### 1. DCF Analysis
- Projection period: 2026E–2031E
- Revenue CAGR: 12.3% (assumption: maintained market share in DACH region)
- EBITDA margin expansion: 18.2% → 22.5% by 2031E
- WACC: 9.2% (risk-free: 2.8%, ERP: 5.5%, beta: 1.15, D/E: 0.3x)
- Terminal growth rate: 2.0%
- Enterprise Value (DCF): EUR 620M
- Less: Net Debt EUR 85M
- Equity Value: EUR 535M (EUR 26.75/share)

| Sensitivity (EUR M) | TGR 1.5% | TGR 2.0% | TGR 2.5% |
|---------------------|-----------|-----------|-----------|
| WACC 8.5%           | 570       | 610       | 660       |
| WACC 9.2%           | 510       | 535       | 575       |
| WACC 10.0%          | 455       | 480       | 510       |

### 2. Comparable Companies
| Peer         | EV/EBITDA | EV/Revenue | P/E   |
|--------------|-----------|------------|-------|
| AlphaTech SE | 14.2x     | 3.8x       | 22.1x |
| BetaSoft AG  | 12.8x     | 3.2x       | 19.5x |
| GammaSys plc | 15.1x     | 4.1x       | 24.3x |
| Median       | 14.2x     | 3.8x       | 22.1x |

Applied median EV/EBITDA (14.2x) to TechCorp EBITDA EUR 38M = EV EUR 540M
Equity Value: EUR 455M (EUR 22.75/share)

### 3. Precedent Transactions
- 5 relevant transactions identified (2023–2025, European enterprise software)
- Median EV/EBITDA: 16.5x (includes ~15% control premium)
- Implied EV: EUR 627M
- Equity Value: EUR 542M (EUR 27.10/share)

### Football Field Summary
| Method      | Low (EUR/share) | Mid    | High   |
|-------------|-----------------|--------|--------|
| DCF         | 22.75           | 26.75  | 33.00  |
| Comps       | 19.50           | 22.75  | 26.00  |
| Precedent   | 24.00           | 27.10  | 31.50  |
| **Blended** | **21.00**       |**25.50**|**29.00**|

### Key Assumptions & Risks
⚠ Revenue growth assumes no major customer churn
⚠ Margin expansion dependent on successful platform migration
⚠ Comparable set limited — only 3 direct peers identified
⚠ Terminal growth rate of 2.0% assumes EU GDP+ performance

### Data Sources
- Annual reports 2023–2025 (audited, IFRS)
- Bloomberg consensus estimates
- Mergermarket for precedent transactions

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
