Valuation
We help private companies and law firms conduct valuations across a wide range of investments and for various purposes. These include disputes and litigation, financial reporting, tax and transfer pricing, M&A and state aid matters.
As valuators, we combine industry-specific expertise with an in-depth knowledge of finance, economics, and econometrics to conduct state-of-the-art valuations. These are always customised to the client’s specific needs or the situation at hand.
Our team is equipped to value a wide range of investments, including:
- Company valuations (e.g. share valuations, valuations of start-up companies and private companies)
- Asset group valuations (e.g. fund portfolio valuations and carve-out valuations)
- Individual asset valuations (e.g. valuations of IP, financial instruments, complex physical assets and early-stage technologies).
IP VALUATION
We provide valuation support for intellectual property to private companies and law firms, whether for dispute resolution or strategic purposes. While our valuation models are robust and customised to account for the unique characteristics of the IP and the client’s needs, we have extensive experience in IP-intensive industries such as healthcare, pharmaceuticals, automotive, chemicals, and software.
Our team possesses extensive experience in disputes and litigation and can assist in determining the value of intellectual property, such as in cases of patent or trademark infringements, breach of contracts, or trade secret theft. We carry out damage assessments to establish lost profits, reasonable royalties, and price erosion, and provide expert testimony in court when required.
When it comes to strategy and monetisation, we help our clients conduct IP valuations for the purposes of M&A and internal decision making, to attract financing, or for the divestment of non-core IP. We also determine licence rates and licence structures for internal or external in- or out-licencing of IP.
