Regardless of whether it is a start-up, a medium-sized enterprise, a publicly listed or a private equity, or a company in crisis, an expert value analysis is the foundation of every corporate initiative.
There are numerous occasions for company valuations. These include structural measures under company law such as mergers, contributions in kind, squeeze-outs, control and profit transfer agreements. Business valuations are often necessary as part of intra-group restructuring and contractual agreements, for instance when shareholders enter or leave the company or in the context of inheritance disputes. Valuation issues also arise from tax considerations and for accounting purposes (e.g. purchase price allocations and subsequent impairment tests under IAS 36).
