Our service areas
A broader reach.
A precisely defined scope.
We welcome enquiries from businesses and professional advisers across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Republic of Ireland assignments are considered separately, with local requirements and professional support agreed before acceptance.
Location informs the commercial context. The valuation itself is based on the company’s cash generation, risk, assets and share rights. These are service-area pages, not a directory of physical XVAL offices.
Local valuation context
Where is your business based?
England
London
London & the South East
London’s business base spans financial and professional services, technology, creative industries and owner-managed service companies. Commercial scale can vary sharply between a local practice and a venture-backed growth company.
Local valuation context
England
Manchester
Manchester & the North West
Greater Manchester combines professional services, digital and media businesses with manufacturing, distribution and established family-owned companies across the wider North West.
Local valuation context
England
Birmingham
Birmingham & the Midlands
The Midlands includes industrial supply chains, engineering, logistics and a substantial professional-services economy. Owner-managed businesses may have asset-intensive operations or concentrated exposure to a small number of large customers.
Local valuation context
Scotland
Edinburgh
Edinburgh & Scotland
Edinburgh’s business community includes financial services, professional practices, technology and life sciences. Scotland’s wider SME base also includes tourism, energy supply chains and specialist manufacturing.
Local valuation context
Northern Ireland
Belfast
Belfast & Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland has a diverse base of professional services, technology, manufacturing and family businesses. Companies trading across the island of Ireland may have contracts, assets or group entities in more than one jurisdiction.
Local valuation context
Republic of Ireland
Ireland
Republic of Ireland — cross-border enquiries
The Republic of Ireland is a separate jurisdiction, not part of the United Kingdom. We consider cross-border enquiries where an Irish business or holding forms part of a wider UK or international valuation need.
Local valuation context
England
Leeds
Leeds & West Yorkshire
Leeds brings together financial and professional services, digital businesses and the manufacturing base of West Yorkshire. A fee-led practice, a software business and an industrial supplier may operate in the same region but require very different valuation evidence.
Local valuation context
England
Liverpool
Liverpool City Region
Liverpool’s maritime and logistics activity sits alongside professional services, life sciences and creative businesses. For a regional owner-managed company, the analysis starts with the operating model and the contracts that generate income, not a general city-wide multiple.
Local valuation context
England
Bristol
Bristol & the West of England
Bristol and the West of England combine aerospace and engineering supply chains with digital, creative and professional-services businesses. Innovation can support competitive advantage, but the cost and timing of commercialisation remain central to valuation.
Local valuation context
England
Cambridge
Cambridge & the East of England
Cambridge’s commercial context includes life sciences, software, research-led companies and specialist engineering. A research platform, a licence business and a profitable service company must not be valued as if they share the same risk or cash-generation profile.
Local valuation context
England
Oxford
Oxford & Oxfordshire
Oxford and Oxfordshire include research-led technology, life sciences, specialist engineering and established professional practices. Some companies hold valuable intellectual property but remain dependent on future development or regulatory milestones.
Local valuation context
England
Newcastle
Newcastle & the North East
Newcastle and the North East combine digital services with engineering and energy supply chains. Project-based revenue and recurring subscription income call for different approaches to forecasting and evidence of maintainability.
Local valuation context
Wales
Cardiff
Cardiff & Wales
Cardiff’s professional-services, financial and creative businesses form part of a wider Welsh economy that also includes manufacturing and specialist suppliers. Local context helps identify commercial risks; it does not create a standard valuation uplift or discount.
Local valuation context
Scotland
Glasgow
Glasgow & the Clyde Valley
Glasgow and the Clyde Valley include professional services, engineering, technology and energy-related businesses. The economics of an established industrial supplier differ from those of a development-stage company, even where both serve a similar end market.
Local valuation contextCommercial reality
Customers, people, contracts and capital requirements matter more than a city-wide headline multiple. We select evidence for the company being valued.
Jurisdiction first
UK tax rules do not settle every legal question. Scottish and Northern Irish court procedures differ; Republic of Ireland tax values require Irish requirements.
Adviser coordination
Discussions can begin remotely with your accountant, solicitor or tax adviser. Confidentiality, information sharing and permitted reliance are agreed within the engagement.
