Profit tells you how the year went. Value tells you what the business has become. In this short introduction, Paul Freudenberg of Rostone Operating Partners explains what the podcast is about and who you’ll hear from.
The episode covers the difference between profit and value, what a buyer or investor looks at beyond last year’s results, and why operations is the engine and valuation the scoreboard. Future guests include accountants, commercial finance specialists and other advisers who see businesses from the buyer’s side of the table.
