There are several ways a startup can be valued. But the wise people informally say that valuation is not an exact science. In fact, all the valuation methodology and the related tools are all an eye-wash.
They are important but at the end of the day, the buyers have decided their own range and the sellers have also decided their own range. These tools are there for the purpose of justifying.
Even though all these tools have been around and several enterepreneurs have been made to believe that these tools are precise, the reality is that the world doesn't work this way.
