Financial Reporting Valuation
Purchase Price Allocations – ASC 805 and IFRS 3
Read More
Whether it is a merger, an acquisition, or any other kind of business combination, it is often characterized by a complex and layered set of agreements to cover the transfer of ownership of different types of assets and liabilities to the buyer. Often, the consideration paid as a part of the transaction can be stock-based (which may require fair valuation if the acquirer is private) or in the form of earnout payments, contingent on the target company achieving certain financial or operational milestones. Business valuation of stock consideration and earnouts, as well as the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities as of the date of the business combination, requires the use of multiple valuation approaches with a high level of attention to detail.
Our team of experienced business valuation firms partners with you to deliver a robust valuation opinion reflecting the value of each business component, asset, and liability related to the transaction. With our experience and expertise, our valuations invariably stand the test of fair value in regulatory reporting (including audit scrutiny), dispute negotiations, and related party dealings. Leveraging the industry’s best practices and latest guidance, our team provides you with a robust and detailed purchase price allocation and the resultant goodwill estimate.
