The value of a firm cannot be totally independent of the financial context in which the firm operates. In this paper we propose a set of axioms in order to characterize appropriate measures of the (random) value of a company which provides a (sublinear) valuation functional consistent with the existence of a financial market. It allows to give an upper and a lower bound to the value of a firm.
Finally, in a random context, we consider some classical valuation methods and test them with respect to the axioms.
