Business Valuation by InteleK

InteleK’s success is built on reducing risk that business owners face when a business valuation is required. Risk is everywhere as the consequences of improper and incorrect valuation can mean incorrect taxation, overpayment or under received in litigation and/or transactions, and risk of audits and investigation from regulatory authorities, such as the IRS, DOL, SEC. We solve this problem through our state-of-the-art valuation processes, that are built from both a sophisticated legal and financial perspective, based on robust, well-established methodologies that are customized for each case.

This mission to minimize risk for our clients has been developed and refined over decades of combined experience by our credentialed business appraisal experts, where they hold credentials such as:

  • Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA®) designation from the CFA Institute;
  • Accredited Senior Appraiser (ASA®) designation from the American Society of Appraisers;
  • Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV®) designation from the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants,
  • Master of Business Administration (MBA);
  • Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA®) designation from the CAIA Association; and
  • Professional Risk Manager (PRM) designation from the PRM International Association. 

The valuation purposes we specialize in are but not limited to estate planning, strategic / exit planning, transactions, ESOPs, complex financial instruments, fairness opinions, tax compliance, financial reporting and portfolio valuation. Full list found here. We work with business owners and their advisors, such as accountants, attorneys, financial advisors, outsourced CFOs and various other consultants.

We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver highly defensible opinions of value that do two things, empowers the business owner and their advisors to make more informed decisions and or significantly reducing their risk of negative outcomes as a result of external scrutiny of the valuation report.

Minnesota, also known as the North Star State, is known for its vibrant culture and outdoor recreation. The state has a rich history of music, arts, and theater, and is home to a number of iconic landmarks such as the Mall of America and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.

The economy of Minnesota is diversified and is driven by a mix of industries, with healthcare being the largest contributor, followed by finance, manufacturing, and retail. The state is home to a number of Fortune 500 companies such as Target, UnitedHealth Group, and 3M. Small businesses in the state range from family-owned restaurants to high-tech startups.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, Minnesota’s GDP grew by 2.2% in 2020, which was above the national average. The state has a relatively low unemployment rate and a higher per capita income compared to other states, which has led to a higher standard of living for its residents.

One of the biggest challenges facing Minnesota’s economy is the need for workforce development, particularly in light of the rapidly changing demands of the labor market. The state has taken steps to address this issue by investing in programs to support training and education, as well as initiatives to attract and retain talent.
