Defensible values that stand up to buyers, auditors, regulators and courts.
Valuation is part analysis, part judgement. In a market shaped by currency movements, inflation and shifting interest rates, the assumptions behind a number matter as much as the number itself.
We prepare independent valuations that are transparent about their inputs and methods. That makes them easier to rely on in negotiations, audit reviews and regulatory filings.
Valuations for acquisitions, disposals, shareholder exits, fundraising and employee share schemes.
Purchase price allocations, impairment testing and fair value measurements prepared to support IFRS reporting.
Valuation of brands, customer relationships, licences, software and other intellectual property.
Valuations supporting intra-group transfers, restructurings and transfer pricing positions under current rules.
Independent views for boards and committees on whether the terms of a proposed transaction are reasonable.
Valuation analysis to support arbitration, litigation and shareholder disagreements.
We confirm the basis of value, valuation date and intended users, because each shapes the right method.
We review the business model, forecasts and market context, challenging assumptions with management.
We use income, market and asset-based approaches as appropriate and reconcile the results.
Our reports set out inputs, sensitivities and reasoning so reviewers can follow and test the conclusion.
We typically consider discounted cash flow, market multiples and asset-based methods. The choice depends on the purpose, the business and the quality of available data.
We model forecasts carefully in a consistent currency, align discount rates with the inflation assumptions used and show how sensitive the value is to key macroeconomic inputs.
Sometimes, but the basis of value can differ. We agree the intended uses at the outset so the work is scoped to meet each requirement properly.
Whether you are buying, selling, raising capital or rethinking your balance sheet, talk to our deals team early.
