COVID-19 has had a broad and dramatic impact on a wide range of businesses. Should these impacts be considered when performing a business valuation, especially if the valuation date is prior to the onset of COVID-19? This presentation will explain the key performance indicators (KPIs) that drive value, the potential impact that COVID-19 has on these KPI’s, as well as the potential impact to business valuations as a whole. The presentation will further explore the challenges and opportunities that arise from valuations that are impacted by COVID-19.
