Heavy Machinery Industry Valuations

At Lotus Amity we provide heavy machinery industry valuations. We value firms in the agriculture, construction and or mining sectors. We provide valuations in transactions and disputes and for tax purposes.

Heavy machinery industry valuation considerations include the current utilitisation rate of the equipment, the target utilisation rate and industry benchmark, the age and state of the equipment and the ongoing capital maintenance expenditure as well as the reinvestment expenditure for growth.

Other key heavy machinery industry valuation components include competitive advantage, intellectual property and brand, product mix, customer concentration, barriers to entry, supplier and supplier agreements, exposure to and outlook for the industries it operates in and working capital requirements.

Given the significant asset base of a heavy machinery there is the potential to secure debt against the assets. Debt holders typically require a lower return than equity holders, due to the security of the debt on assets. The return debt holders require depends on factors such as default risk, being the risk the entity in unable to service the debt.
