I will give you a HOT DOG for each tranche of 10,000 shares. That is 10 HOT DOGS.

This type of business is worthless. Your biggest asset is your van. Probably a clapped out Ford Junkie - so I will be generous and make that 11 HOT DOGS.

DEAL OR NO DEAL ????

Not going to work. In order to list on NASDAQ, you need to sell at least 1,250,000 shares to at least 2,200 beneficial shareholders. Read up on NASDAQ listing requirements:

Unless you employ some-one to sell from your van, your Business is YOU !!

No-one is going to invest in a Business where the Major Asset (YOU) is planning to depart ...

Anyway ... let's look at prices ...

What's your earnings ?
Lets say £100,000 a year
What's your Profit (AFTER you pay wages, Taxes etc) ?
Lets say £10,000 a year

OK, so you have a p/e ratio of 10. That's very good (anything up to 20 is OK for an established Business with no expansion plans -- if you plan to expand, you can get away with p/e's up to 50 ...)

Shares holders expect a Return on their Investment = this is called a 'Dividend'.

So how much of your profit are you going to pay as Dividend to the shareholders ?
Lets say £5,000.

Investors will look for at least 5% (in an established Business) If you have expansion plans (eg the Busines will use the money raised to buy another van and double your turn-over and profit), Shareholders will be willing to acccept a lot less NOW =becasue they expect to make a LOT MORE later = in fact, they might accept zero divi's (but you must explain how you will 'eventually' pay out decent dividends).

Anyway, if youn pay out £5,000 in dividends and this is 5% of the share capital, this suggest that shares are worth £100,000 in total .... so if you sell 100,000 shares, then you should be able to get £1 each.

If you are selling shares in order to expand, then you can value the shares on turnover (since you won't be paying Dividends yet). .. if your Launch Prospectus explains how you will buy a fleet of vans and multiply your turn-over 10 times (and it is believed), then you can base the share price on 10x turnover ... so each share sells at £10 ... if you can convince Investors you are expanding by 20x, then you can go for £20 a share :-)

NB. The money you raise belongs to the Business and the Business belongs to the Shareholders .. running off to Malibu with Sharholders Funds is known as Fraud :-)

OK ?

Right. I don't think Martin Sheen is mayor of Malibu anymore and they revoked that homeless welcome he issued several years ago.

The Chicago Stock Exchange is a fairly relaxed exchange. You need to show a minimum of a quarter million shares issued and about 400-500 stockholders with a capitalization of somewhere between 2 and 12 million bucks. The rules for AMEX and NYSE are much stronger.

Keep dreaming.

no to the Malibu. not enough cash.
you need a CPA to go over your books and he can tell you what you stock is worth per share.

remember good will is not worth anything. it is just a figure pulled out of the thin air representing nothing.

most small business's worth is based on the present owner. if sold it is not worth no more than 10% to 20% on the dollar. "YOU ARE THE BUSINESS".

on the open market used hot dog vans are worth "A DIME A DOZEN".

If your lucky it will be penny shares. I don't know if you can get fraction of a penny shares which would probably reflect true value of your company
