I am going through the investment process and am working with some advisor to calculate a pre-revenue valuation for my coworking startup. Did any of you go through this process, or have any of you recently had your existing company valuated? Any info would help!

I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear. We are trying to determine a pre-revenue valuation to help show our investors what the company will be worth when it gets up and running. I am curious to know if any other coworking spaces had to go through these steps with their investors, and if so, what they came up with. Thanks for your time!

When determining future valuation, calculate future annual earnings. Valuation can at least be a multiple of that, then the investor will reduce that forecast by his confidence level that you might not hit that forecast. Start with 3-6x of EBITDA.

I am familiar with this method, but have had a really hard time finding a multipier for our industry, so thanks for this! Can you tell me - is this multiplier based off of something you read, or based on experience with your investors?
Thanks for your help. It is much appreciated!

“…you read, or based on experience with your investors?”

I had Collective Agency valued in 2012. Contact me at [email protected] if you want to see the methods; I would charge to share that information privately. Alex Linsker
