Valuation

Changes in the ownership structure are the most common reasons for company valuations. As your advisor or neutral expert in the context of transactions, we determine the value of a company and assist in the establishment of companies, capital increases in kind, conclusion of company agreements, conversions, squeeze-outs and other transactions under stock corporation and conversion law. In these contexts, we determine for you company values, exchange ratios, cash compensation or compensation payments for the shareholders. In the aforementioned activities, we can also act as court-appointed auditors and have extensive experience in this area, including hearings in appraisal rights proceedings.

We assess the financial adequacy of a purchase price or the result of a business decision process and document this assessment for you. We also assess the offered price in connection with statements by the management and supervisory boards of target companies on public acquisition and takeover offers pursuant to Section 27 WpÜG.

The increasing importance of fair values in accounting requires sound valuation and accounting knowledge in financial reporting. We support you with solutions for purchase price allocation/purchase price allocation, valuation of intangible assets, impairment test.

We support you in the context of judicial or extrajudicial disputes, for example to determine the amount of loss.

We prepare valuations for succession arrangements outside the family, for company succession and for changes in shareholders.

The valuation of real estate can be relevant in the context of transactions or just for internal restructuring.

Depending on the type of property and your assignment, we can support you in determining the value of your property with our valuation team or together with our cooperation partner from the real estate industry. We ensure that you benefit from our in-depth knowledge of the valuation methodology and the market.
