An Estimate of Future Company Cash Flow
Cash flow is one of the most important factors in a business exit. Today, we look at why securing a professional estimate of your company’s cash flow is crucial to the success of your Exit Plan.

While there are many definitions of cash flow, the one that we often use is free cash flow.
