PEERCOMPS, INC.
LUTZ, FLORIDA

PeerComps, Inc., founded back on a chilly winter day, January 14, 2009, started off in Hillsborough County, Florida with the filing number P09000004131 as its official stamp of approval. Picture this: nestled at 17826 N. US Highway 41 in Lutz, FL - that's where they set up their command center for a mission to make business valuations more approachable and practical. They've built an accessible hub online through peercomps.com. The brainchild behind PeerComps? GCF Valuation, a savvy full-service outfit hailing from Tampa, Florida. Combining over half a century worth of know-how in investment banking, corporate development, and business valuation, these folks have set out to be the go-to pros for matters like mergers and acquisitions, lending support during estate planning or divorce proceedings, even stepping into litigation when the need arises. What do they offer? A nifty toolbox of sorts, with three key methods at their core: Asset Approach, Market Approach, and Income Approach. For businesses loaded up on assets, the Asset Approach tunes in by tweaking those numbers - assets here, debts there. The Market Approach is your gateway to a sprawling database; think NAICS codes, company size, or whichever criteria fit the bill. Meanwhile, calculations like price to revenue and EBITDA crunch into comparatives analysis. And let's not forget the Income Approach: that's about figuring future cash flows using an EBITDA-focused lens where risk factors get their due consideration. To match client needs as diverse as they come, PeerComps delivers two membership flavors: an All-Inclusive Annual Membership giving total access to both its valuation tools and databases, or a Comps Search Annual Subscription if the database alone is what you need. There's also a cherry on top - One-Time Business Valuation services that employ Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) as their secret sauce. At the helm, you'll find Darren Mize steering things through his role of President, joined by Steve Mize in Vice Presidency and managing partner duties at GCF Valuation. This duo is complemented by Steve's seasoned expertise - an Accredited Senior Appraiser with stamps from the American Society of Appraisers (ASA) - bringing decades of valuation insights to clients across the states. A nod to their dedication to staying on point too: they've stayed sharp and compliant, having freshly renewed their legal status as of December 16, 2020. PeerComps keeps rolling on its journey, helping businesses navigate through complex valuations with clarity and precision.
