Question
Where exactly are valuations used?
Answer
Most often they are used in pitch decks and client presentations when providing updates and estimates on valuation. Valuations can also be used in defense analyses, merger models, and other types of models. Turns out knowing how much something is worth is useful.
🏦 Why is this important to bankers?
Knowing how to calculate a valuation is great. But if you don’t understand the context, it’s not all that useful.


If you haven’t joined already, we offer a course / community for people like you.
We have >300 pages of content, written like a friend who spoke to you for hours on end. Many of our students have enjoyed our brainrot approach to teaching :)
We absolutely hate WSO and all the other grifters so we offer a considerably better experience for only $20.
Last year, 7 sophomores on our platform got 5 offers from top BBs, EBs and growth equity shops.

Our first year was dedicated to building our platform and seeing proof points through successful members.
We want to turn that up a notch and take a 5-10 year view.
Through the creation of classes of fellows and deeper time spent with mentors, we aim to get every single fellow in, by force of sheer will and network if nothing else.
Once every student is in, they will help future classes and in 5-10 years, FF Fellows will be a forceful network across multiple industries and firms as fellows continue to develop their potential.
This is free FYI.
That’s all for today, see you guys tomorrow.
