How Much Is Your Accounting Firm Really Worth?

For most firm owners, the question lingers in the back of their minds: What’s my firm worth?

The answer can shape decisions about growth, succession, and long-term planning.

That’s why we built the Accounting Firm Valuation Tool.

This free resource gives you a tailored estimate of your firm’s value based on the same factors buyers and investors use when evaluating practices like yours. It’s not a generic calculator. It’s designed specifically for accounting firm owners who want clarity and confidence about where they stand.

Why Valuation Matters

Knowing your firm’s worth isn’t just about preparing for a potential sale. It helps you:

  • Benchmark your progress year over year

  • Spot strengths and risks in your current business model

  • Make smarter decisions about hiring, succession, and growth

  • See how your firm stacks up in today’s market

What Goes Into a Valuation?

While no two firms are the same, several core factors carry the most weight in determining value:

  • Revenue and EBITDA: Top-line growth and bottom-line profitability are obvious drivers, but they tell more of a story than most realize. High margins, for example, can indicate efficiency or signal that a firm may be understaffed or underpaying its team.

  • Client Mix: A diverse client base with recurring engagements is more attractive than heavy reliance on just a few large accounts.

  • Talent and Leadership: Buyers look closely at whether your firm has a strong second tier of leadership and staff capable of sustaining growth.

  • Systems and Processes: A well-run back office, efficient workflows, and adoption of modern tools can enhance value.

  • Market Position: Niche expertise or a strong regional reputation can push value up.

Each of these factors influences how the market sees your firm’s long-term potential. That’s why understanding them now before you’re even considering a sale can give you a serious advantage.
