The trial court rejected DeBoer’s valuation evidence, stating, in part:
The [c]ourt relies primarily upon the expert testimony of Gary Trugman as
supplemented by Adamy in coming to this conclusion. Trugman is perhaps THE most qualified and respected business evaluator in that profession. Trugman literally wrote the book on business valuation.
