Introduction

NATURE OF THE BOOK

This is an advanced book in the science and art of valuing privately held
businesses. In order to read this book, you must already have read at
least one introductory book such as Valuing A Business (Pratt, Reilly, and
Schweihs 1996). Without such a background, you will be lost.
I have written this book with the professional business appraiser as
my primary intended audience, though I think this book is also appropriate for attorneys who are very experienced in valuation matters, investment bankers, venture capitalists, financial analysts, and MBA students.

Uniqueness of This Book
This is a rigorous book, and it is not easy reading. However, the following
unique attributes of this book make reading it worth the effort:
1. It emphasizes regression analysis of empirical data. Chapter 7,
adjusting for control and marketability, contains the first
regression analysis of the data related to restricted stock
discounts. Chapter 9, a sample fractional interest discount study,
contains a regression analysis of the Partnership Profiles
database related to secondary limited partnership market trades.
In both cases we found very significant results. We now know
much of what drives (a) restricted stock discounts and (b)
discounts from net asset values of the publicly registered/
privately traded limited partnerships. You will also see much
empirical work in Chapter 4, ‘‘Discount Rates as a Function of
Log Size,’’ and Chapter 11, ‘‘Empirical Testing of Abrams’
Valuation Theory.’’
2. It emphasizes quantitative skills. Chapter 2 focuses on using
regression analysis in business valuation. Chapter 3, ‘‘Annuity
Discount Factors and the Gordon Model,’’ is the most
comprehensive treatment of ADFs in print. For anyone wishing
to use the Mercer quantitative marketability discount model,

Chapter 4 contains the ADF with constant growth not included
in the Mercer text. ADFs crop up in many valuation contexts. I
invented several new ADFs that appear in Chapter 3 that are
useful in many valuation contexts. Chapter 11 contains the first
treatise on how much statistical uncertainty we have in our
valuations and how value is affected when the appraiser makes
various errors.
3. It emphasizes putting all the pieces of the puzzle together to
present a comprehensive, unified approach to valuation that can
be empirically tested and whose principles work for the
valuation of billion-dollar firms and ma and pa firms alike.
While this book contains more mathematics—a worm’s eye
view, if you will—than other valuation texts, it also has more of
a bird’s eye view as well.
HOW TO READ THIS BOOK

I have tried to provide paths through this book to make it easier to follow.
Chapters 4 and 13 both contain a shortcut version of the chapter at the
end for those who want the bottom line without all the detail. In general,
I have moved most of the heaviest mathematics to appendices in order
to leave the bodies of the chapters more readable. Where that was not
optimal, I have given instructions on which material can be safely
skipped.
How to read this book depends on your quantitative skills and how
much time you have available. For the reader with strong quantitative
skills and abundant time, the ideal path is to read the book in its exact
order, as there is a logical sequence. The first three parts to this book
follow the chronological sequence of performing a valuation: (1) forecast
cash flows, (2) discount to present value, and (3) adjust for control and

marketability. The fourth part is a bird’s eye view in order to test empirically whether my methodology works. Additionally, we explore (1) confidence intervals around valuation estimates and (2) what happens to the
valuation when appraisers make mistakes. Part 5, on special topics, is the
place for everything else. Each of parts of the book has an introduction
preceding it that will preview the upcoming material in greater depth
than we cover here.
Because most professionals do not have abundant time, I want to
suggest another path geared for the maximum benefit from the least investment in time. The heart of the book is Chapters 4 and 7, on log size
and on adjusting for control and marketability, respectively. I recommend
the time-pressed reader follow this order:
1. Chapter 7 (discounts for lack of control and lack of
marketability)
2. Chapter 8 (this is an application of Chapter 7—a sample
restricted stock report)
3. Chapter 9 (this is an application of Chapter 7—a sample
fractional ownership interest discount report)

xiv

4. Chapter 4 (the log size model for calculating discount rates)
5. Chapter 3—the following sections: from the beginning through
the section titled ‘‘A Brief Summary’’; ‘‘Periodic Perpetuity
Factors: Perpetuities for Periodic Cash Flows’’; and
‘‘Relationship of Gordon Model Multiple to the Price/Earnings

Ratio.’’ Some readers may want to read this chapter after
Chapter 7, though it will be somewhat helpful, but definitely
not necessary, to have read Chapter 3 before 4 and 7.
6. Chapter 10 (this empirically tests Chapters 4 and 7, the heart of
the book)
7. Chapter 2 (some readers may want to start with Chapter 2 first,
as the material on using regression analysis may help reading
all of the other chapters).
After these chapters, you can read the remainder of the book in any
order, though it is best to read Chapter 14 immediately after Chapter 13.
This book has close to 125 tables, many of them being two or three
pages long. To facilitate your reading, it will help you to copy tables
whose commentary in the text is extensive and sit with the separate tables
next to you. Otherwise, you will spend an inordinate amount of time
flipping pages back and forth. Note: readers with low blood pressure may
wish to ignore that advice.

Acknowledgments

I gratefully acknowledge help beyond the call of duty from my parents,
Leonard and Marilyn Abrams. Professionally, R. K. Hiatt has been the
ideal internal editor. Without his help, this book would have suffered
greatly. He also contributed important insights throughout the book.
Robert Reilly edited the original manuscript cover-to-cover. I thank
Robert very much for the huge time commitment for someone else’s book.
Larry Kasper gave me a surprise detailed edit of the first eight chapters.
I benefited much from his input and thank him profusely.
Chris Mercer also read much or all of the book and gave me many
corrections and very useful feedback. I thank Chris very much for his
valuable time, of which he gave me much.
Michael Bolotsky and Eric Nath were very helpful to me in editing
my summary of their work.
I thank Rob Oliver and Roy Meyers of Management Planning, Inc.
for providing me with their restricted stock data. I also thank Bob Jones
of Jones, Roach & Caringella for providing me with private fractional
interest sales of real estate.
Chaim Borevitz provided important help on Chapters 8 and 9. Mark
Shayne provided me with dozens of insightful comments. Professor William Megginson gave me considerable feedback on Chapter 7. I thank

him for his wisdom, patience, and good humor. His colleague, Professor
Lance Nail, also was very helpful to me.

I thank my editor at McGraw-Hill, Ela Aktay, for her encouragement
and enthusiasm. I thank my publisher, Jeff Krames, for his patience and
apologize for testing it so much due to my passion for perfection and the
huge life-changes that occurred to me while writing this book.
All the people who have helped make this book a reality have my
profound gratitude. In fact, there have been so many that it is almost
impossible to remember every single person, and I apologize to anyone
who should be in this acknowledgment section and who is not due to
my human failings.
