Company valuation for Bulgarian companies

Do you know how much your Bulgarian business is worth?

What is the real value of your company? What is your business worth? What multiples are used in your country? What would buyers appreciate in your company?

These are questions that could interest you as a seller of a company. Of course, you want to maximize the company’s value, and have a good starting point in the discussions with a buyer, but how can you find out how much you can ask for a share in your business?

Valuation specifics for Bulgarian companies

Investors and business owners should know that company valuations can differ significantly due to individual country and sector structures. It is important to consider that valuation calculations should also include the potential impact of imminent macroeconomic country-specific risk factors. Country risk is the potential risk associated with making investments and doing business in a country. Based on this, we have divided the country-specific risks into two categories: political risk and economic/financial risk. We have analyzed each country and slightly adjusted our valuation calculations based on these risks to reflect an investor’s or buyer’s perspective in a potential transaction.

Bulgaria has a democratic government, but it has been known to face political instability in the past. The economy has been growing steadily over the past decade but still faces several financial risks. The country’s banking sector has undergone significant reforms in recent years, but concerns about its stability remain. In addition, Bulgaria’s currency (the Bulgarian lev) is tied to the euro, which could create financial risks for businesses that rely on exports. The infrastructure is improving but still lags behind many other European countries. There are also concerns about the country’s workforce, particularly regarding education and training. These factors could create operational risks for businesses that require a skilled workforce or reliable infrastructure.
