Definition : PMI

PMI is an acronym for "Petites et Moyennes Industries". A SMI is defined as a company with between 10 and 250 employees, and annual sales of less than €2 million. SMIs are identical to SMEs. The only distinction between them is that SMIs only concern industrial vocations. 

How to evaluate a PMI? 

There is no single "ideal" method for valuing an SMB. The methods used need to be adapted to the SME's activity, sales growth and capital intensity. When valuing your SMB, the XVAL consultant will advise you on the methods used. Usually, 3 methods are used, with the final valuation obtained via a weighted average of the different methods used.

It is important to note that, depending on the sector, there are specific practices and methods of valuation that are often accepted as the norm by the players in the sector.
