Israeli Company Valuation
Verified91/100Builds an indicative valuation range for an Israeli private company using DCF, market multiples, and the asset approach, with a transparent WACC build-up that uses a live Israeli risk-free rate, the current Israel country risk premium, and the company's own effective Israeli tax rate rather than a generic 23%. Use when someone asks what their company is worth, is buying or selling a private Israeli business, needs a valuation to support a share transfer or a Section 104 reorganization, is setting a share allocation ratio, or wants to sanity-check a valuation someone else produced. It matters because an Israeli valuation built from a US textbook gets three things wrong at once: it misses the country risk premium that rose after the sovereign downgrades, it applies the statutory tax rate to a company that actually pays a reduced preferred-enterprise rate, and it presents a single point estimate where a range is the honest answer. The output is indicative only. Early-stage and pre-revenue companies are in scope for valuation, using round-based methods and a share-class allocation waterfall rather than a DCF. Do NOT use for real estate appraisal (a separate licensed profession), for listed-share analysis (use tase-stock-analysis), for writing a VC-style investment memo on a startup deal (use israeli-startup-investment-analyzer), for owner profit-extraction planning between salary and dividends (use israeli-corporate-tax-strategy), for the tax an employee owes on options or RSUs (use israeli-stock-options-tax), or to produce a signed valuation opinion for filing, which requires an engaged accountant or valuer.

Ask what a private Israeli company is worth and you get either a number with no working behind it or a spreadsheet built from a US textbook. Both are wrong in the same specific ways: the discount rate carries no Israel country premium, the tax line uses the statutory rate for a company that may actually pay far less as a preferred enterprise, and the answer arrives as a single confident number when the honest output is a range. This skill builds the valuation the way an Israeli practitioner builds it, shows every input and where it came from, and refuses to hand back false precision.

Try These Prompts
I want to value my private Israeli company. Ask me what you need: the purpose of the valuation, recent financials, capital structure, and which tax regime we are in. At the end give me a valuation range with a sensitivity grid rather than a single number, and list every assumption you used.
Build me a discount rate for an Israeli private company, component by component. Fetch the current risk-free rate from the Bank of Israel, use the Israel country risk premium, and at each step tell me where the number came from and what date it carries.
I received a valuation and I want to check it. Start with the country risk premium and the effective tax rate, since that is where Israeli valuations go wrong most often, then tell me what else does not hold up.
I am selling part of my company to my partner. Explain how the value of that stake is determined, what in the shareholders agreement could affect the price, and what I should know before I agree to a number.

Helps you cut recurring bank and credit-card fees. Use it when you pay per action instead of being on a cheaper fixed-price fee track, when you want to cancel a barely-used credit card, stop a recurring charge or debit authorization, or negotiate a specific commission down. The skill prepares a ready-to-send Hebrew cancellation letter, a rights-grounded negotiation script, and a short summary of your rights, based on Bank of Israel fee rules and Israeli banking law. Why it matters: many Israelis overpay hundreds of shekels a year because they do not know there is a supervised basic track, a right to cancel at any time, and discounts for seniors, people with disabilities, and small businesses. Not for maximizing cashback or deals, coupon hunting, analyzing bank transactions, or household budgeting.
Generate the full export document set for Israeli exporters: commercial invoice (HE+EN), packing list, bill of lading / AWB / CMR, proforma, and origin documents (EUR.1, invoice declaration, US-Israel Origin Invoice Declaration, CIFTA Form B239). Handles Incoterms 2020 (FOB, CIF, DDP, EXW, FCA, CPT, CIP, DAP, DPU, CFR, FAS). Use when user asks about exporting from Israel, choosing an Incoterm, EUR.1, approved exporter status, or recovering from a border rejection. Do NOT use for import tax calculation (use israeli-customs-duty-calculator).
Generate a structured investment memo for an Israeli startup deal: market and timing, team assessment, a sanity check of the metrics (ARR, growth, burn, runway), valuation and dilution math, key risks, and a focused list of diligence questions to send the founder. Built for angel and VC investors who need to evaluate an inbound deck or data room fast. The real edge: it catches Israel-specific landmines generic tools miss, like Innovation Authority royalty and IP-out restrictions that can shrink or block an exit, the Delaware flip, a broken Section 102 option plan, and founder vesting. Use when an investor asks to evaluate a deal, screen a startup, review a pitch deck, write an investment memo, or prepare diligence questions. Do NOT use for founder-side formation and fundraising (israeli-startup-toolkit), employee option taxation (israeli-stock-options-tax), or public-market stock analysis (tase-stock-analysis).
