Value is a subjective concept in business terms, since there are different aspects that determine this concept, but in its majority, it will be associated to income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;o&nbsp;<strong>valuation of a company<\/strong>&nbsp;is the process of calculating or estimating the economic value of the company. It can also be defined as the&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;as a tool for evaluating a company's financial results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/valorizacion-de-empresas-1-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/valorizacion-de-empresas-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"valorizacion de empresas\u00a0\" class=\"wp-image-247204\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are currently a large number of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/en\/articulos\/blog\/metodos-de-valorizar-una-empresa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>business valuation models<\/strong><\/a><strong>.\u00a0<\/strong>However, these will be classified into two groups: Profitability models and accounting models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the&nbsp;<strong>profitability models<\/strong>The valuation of real options will be subdivided into other groups, which are: The valuation of real options, market value and discounted cash flows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the&nbsp;<strong>accounting models<\/strong>will be subdivided by: Multiples-based models and balance sheet-based models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To know this better, we will have to interpret everything from its base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the meaning of enterprise valuation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;is the concept of increasing the value for different reasons or causes present in a property, an asset or a company. It is defined that the&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;is to give the corresponding value to the company through various financial calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to value a company?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies&nbsp;<\/strong>is not something that comes by default in companies when they are created, it is something that is created from value. You have to create value if you want to create value, but how exactly do you create value?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several ways to create value or&nbsp;<strong>to generate a valorization of companies<\/strong>This is a subjective concept for most entrepreneurs. However, the most accurate answer is the result of the income that the company receives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Valuation of companies: Examples<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An example of this is the start-up of a new company. As is already known, it belongs to a certain group of shareholders, each of whom will contribute a part for its development, receiving a percentage from the Capital Stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These contributions are referred to as \"slices\" or \"portions\". The objective of each shareholder is to make his or her portion worth more each time, which is known as valorization or company valuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, company management teams, whether shareholders or not, will direct all efforts to increase and maximize the value generated in the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies create value through two (2) factors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first factor for company valuation is ROIC vs. WACC, while the second factor is growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/valorizacion-de-empresas-ejemplos-1-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/valorizacion-de-empresas-ejemplos-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"valorizacion de empresas ejemplos\" class=\"wp-image-247205\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is ROIC?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ROIC;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/dcfmodeling.com\/es\/blogs\/blog\/calculating-roic-components\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Return On Invested Capital<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;in English or&nbsp;<strong>return on invested capital&nbsp;<\/strong>in Spanish, is an indicator that accurately measures the level of profitability obtained by a company when investing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a potential indicator for the creation of value and the&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>It is a tool for analysis that allows us to understand the development and evolution of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A simple example of understanding ROIC is with an industrial company. These companies have in their facilities machinery, existing products, suppliers, balances with customers and other elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the aforementioned constitute the&nbsp;<strong>invested capital of the company<\/strong>. The ROIC will be the percentage of the capital transformed into profit, this is known as&nbsp;<strong>ROIC profitability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This profitability goes against the&nbsp;<strong>WACC in the valuation of companies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the WACC?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The\u00a0<strong>Weighted Average Cost of Capital<\/strong>known by its acronym\u00a0<strong>WACC<\/strong>\u00a0English\u00a0<strong>Weighted Average Cost of Capital<\/strong>is the discount rate used to determine the value that is present in the cash flows when using the\u00a0<strong>valuation of companies.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuing with the previous example, companies have two groups whose objective is to inject money into the company, hoping to obtain a profitable return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These two (2) groups are the shareholders and the external entities. At this point, the weighting of the profitability will be demanded by them, and this is what will be called the&nbsp;<strong>WACC.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When do companies generate value?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every company will generate value or<strong>&nbsp;valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;when the&nbsp;<strong>ROIC<\/strong>the return on invested capital is greater than the&nbsp;<strong>WACC<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that a company generates value when its revenues are greater than everything it spends, costs or invests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have already seen how the&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;through the&nbsp;<strong>ROIC and WACC<\/strong>but there is also growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is growth in enterprise valuation?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies will create value or&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;through growth only if, and only if, the assumptions of the&nbsp;<strong>ROIC&nbsp;<\/strong>on the&nbsp;<strong>WACC<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If revenues are on the high side, it means that the company will grow successfully and without risk of bankruptcy or dissolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if it is not complied with and the&nbsp;<strong>WACC is higher than ROIC<\/strong>No matter how much a company grows, it will not be able to generate value or increase its enterprise value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, if a company grows but is not generating any value, it runs the risk of destroying itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The growth of the&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;is important, it allows to determine the path the company is taking, increasing its chances of success, development and evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this will not always be the case. Normally, companies need the help of experts in the field who can provide them with accurate information on where they are at the moment with respect to the&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to value my company?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our integrated Valoriza team is formed by&nbsp;<strong>experts in business valuation<\/strong>We have a team of professionals and professors from Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica with more than 20 years of experience, with all the tools available to advise you on the valuation of investment funds, financial diagnostics and other elements of finance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.valoriza.com\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">valoriza.com<\/a>you will be able to obtain a&nbsp;<strong>valorization of companies<\/strong>&nbsp;your business needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We invite you to contact us, so that we can provide you with more help and information about business valuation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/es\/contacto\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=cta&amp;utm_campaign=content\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/valoriza.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Conversemos-768x294-1.png\" alt=\"cta valorizacion de empresas\" class=\"wp-image-247207\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Qu\u00e9 es la valorizaci\u00f3n de empresas, c\u00f3mo se calcula y qu\u00e9 modelos existen.
