Independent Valuation Support for Fair Value Conclusions
The Valuation Group provides fair value measurement support for financial reporting, compliance, audit-related review, transaction-related matters, equity interests, intangible assets, contingent obligations, and other assets or liabilities requiring valuation analysis.
Our work supports CFOs, controllers, auditors, CPA firms, attorneys, boards, investors, private companies, and advisory teams that need documented valuation support for fair value conclusions.
Why The Valuation Group
Fair value measurement assignments require valuation analysis that connects the asset or liability being measured to market participant assumptions, expected cash flow, risk, liquidity, contractual rights, economic conditions, and the reporting purpose of the analysis.
Our fair value work is organized around the asset or liability being measured, the reporting purpose, market participant assumptions, expected cash flow, risk, liquidity, rights, restrictions, and the evidence supporting the conclusion.
We provide fair value support for private-company equity interests, ownership interests, business units, closely held companies, complex capital structures, and other nonpublic interests requiring valuation analysis.
Our analysis may address financial performance, expected cash flow, market evidence, capital structure, ownership rights, liquidity, company-specific risk, and market participant assumptions.
Our analysis may address historical performance, expected future cash flow, market conditions, utilization, remaining useful life, operating trends, risk, and the relationship between carrying value and fair value.
We provide fair value measurement support for intangible assets, including trade names, trademarks, customer relationships, developed technology, licensing rights, contract rights, non-compete agreements, royalty streams, and other identifiable intangible assets.
Our work considers the economic benefit of the asset, remaining useful life, risk, revenue contribution, market position, and assumptions supporting the fair value conclusion.
Fair value measurement may be required for earnouts, contingent consideration, milestone payments, performance-based obligations, equity-linked instruments, and other transaction-related rights or liabilities.
We analyze the expected amount, timing, probability, risk, and economic structure of the obligation or asset being measured.
Fair value conclusions are often reviewed by auditors, CPA firms, management, boards, investors, or other professionals. Our reports and supporting schedules explain the methods used, assumptions applied, financial evidence considered, and reasoning behind the valuation conclusion.
