This question often arises when a business is acquired or sold (e.g. fairness opinions), for tax or legal matters, for accounting purposes (e.g. PPA, impairment test) or when transferring (intangible) assets. Based on our long-standing experience and by applying recognized methods, we conduct valuations which are in line with your requirements.
In addition, we create customized financial models according to recognized modelling standards, which can support you in your decision-making process.
