Abstract
This case follows the 2017 acquisition valuation of Mary Washington Pediatrics in Northern Virginia by two pediatricians, Natalia Juarez and Kirsten Atwood. The case provides a simple context for discussing approaches for enterprise valuation, including discounted cash flow (DCF) and transaction multiples methods. Students are encouraged to critique a financial forecast for the practice using the current performance of the target company and other comparables. The case has been used in a course specific to medical professionals but could be used by any group seeking an introduction to valuation mechanics.
