A practical starting point
- Revenue and costs by currency
- Intercompany balances and trading entities
- Customer terms and exchange-rate sensitivities
These are prompts for the example below. The information needed for your business will be agreed individually.
A cross-border business: making the cash flows comparable
A Northern Ireland company trading across markets may receive income and incur costs in different currencies. The valuation brief should explain the source of earnings, contractual terms and how exchange-rate changes affect margins.
Split revenue and costs by currency where material. Identify overseas subsidiaries, intercompany balances and customer contracts. State the reporting currency and show sensitivities rather than assuming that a recent exchange rate will persist.
Make the brief
specific to you.
Tell us whether you need a whole-business or shareholding valuation, who will use it and the date it should relate to. Explain any proposed transaction and the documents currently available.
A valuation range is sensitive to the evidence and assumptions. We agree the fee and intended deliverable before starting; no value or transaction outcome is promised.

State the markets and currencies involved
For a cross-border company, the location of its registered office does not explain all trading risks. Identify entities, customers and suppliers by market where material, reconcile intercompany balances and show which currency drives revenue and costs. Agree any jurisdiction-specific reporting requirements before commissioning.
