Dear LawGuru user:
Privately held securities (and privately held or close corporations) are valued by accountants, lawyers and business appraisers, not by the SEC.
Often the method of valuation, at least for buyout purposes, is specified in the "Buy-Sell" Agreement or shareholder agreement executed at the time of incorporation. The buyout provision in such agreements usually involve accountants or appraisers.
Please contact me if you have further questions.
Sincerely,
Louise Aron
