Evidence-led business valuations for South Australian businesses.

Business valuation South Australia refers to an independent, evidence-led valuation of a South Australian business, prepared for CGT events, restructures, related-party transfers, share buybacks or small business CGT concession matters. Prismi provides this service to SA businesses, accountants and lawyers statewide, applying APES 225 and ATO market valuation guidance, with fixed-fee reports from $1,495 + GST delivered remotely in 10–14 business days for the Essential tier.

State-specific considerations.

South Australia's duty settings are set out in the Stamp Duties Act 1923 (SA) and administered by RevenueSA. Does SA charge duty on the sale of a business? Duty on transfers of non-real business assets — goodwill, plant and equipment, intellectual property and similar — was abolished from 18 June 2015, and duty on transfers of non-residential, non-primary-production real property was phased out over three years before being abolished from 1 July 2018, which removed duty from most straightforward business sale and restructure transactions involving SA entities. Does landholder duty still apply in SA? Yes — from 1 July 2018 the landholder provisions apply where a person acquires or increases a 'prescribed interest' (50% or more in a private company or private unit trust, 90% or more in a listed entity or public unit trust) in an entity that holds residential or primary production land, with no minimum land value threshold. Valuations involving primary production land — common in SA's wine, viticulture and broadacre agribusiness sector — should factor this in early, and we coordinate with the client's lawyer or tax adviser on the duty position rather than advising on it ourselves. What valuation standard does a South Australian business valuation follow? Prismi's reports are prepared to the process-over-conclusion standard in APES 225 (Valuation Services), with market value assessed as at the reference date consistent with IVS 104 (Bases of Value), alongside ATO market valuation guidance for tax-purpose engagements — the same evidence-led methodology whether the matter is a CGT event, a restructure or a related-party transfer. How much does a business valuation cost in South Australia, and how long does it take? Prismi's fixed-fee tiers apply the same way in SA as elsewhere: Essential from $1,495 + GST (single methodology, 10–14 business days), Comprehensive from $3,995 + GST (dual methodology, 15–25 business days), Defensible Valuation File from $8,995 + GST (triple methodology, 25–35 business days), and Valuation Range & Scenario Review from $12,995 + GST (30–45 business days) — each fee fixed in writing at engagement, before any work begins. Where in South Australia does Prismi cover? We act for businesses across Mount Gambier and the Limestone Coast, Whyalla and the Eyre Peninsula, Port Lincoln, the Riverland and the Barossa Valley, alongside metropolitan Adelaide, with engagements managed remotely — there is no need for a site visit for the valuation itself. SA's economy skews toward wine and viticulture, broader agribusiness, and a substantial defence and naval shipbuilding supply chain concentrated around Adelaide's northern suburbs — each with its own valuation considerations around land-linked value, seasonal and price-cycle earnings, and long-dated government or prime-contractor work in progress.
