The filed figures and these assumptions give no positive value: the adjusted equity and the average result are both zero or negative.
Part of the calculation comes out below zero; a shareholding is never worth less than zero, so the floor is zero.

What this indication leaves out
- Market prices and comparable transactions: Checked does not hold them.
- Anything after the latest accounts, and items off the balance sheet (guarantees, leases, disputes).
- The real value of buildings, stock and receivables: enter your own revaluation or adjustment.
- The owner's role in the business, synergies for a buyer and the tax consequences of a sale.
For a valuation to decide on: a company auditor or a certified accountant.
