A fairness opinion provides assurance and an unbiased view on the key parameters of a transaction to the both parties involved. This is especially valuable, in situations of potential conflict of interest between the parties, for instance between a company’s board of directors and its shareholders.
While every business and transaction is unique, we follow a highly disciplined analytical framework structured across following elements:
- Conducting in-depth financial due diligence on the company to gain a complete understanding of its business and financial aspects as well terms and conditions of the transaction
- Extensive secondary research on industry involving thorough assessment of business and strategic environment for each of the company’s target markets to evaluate all risk and return drivers
- Conducting valuation of the company, and/or its underlying securities, by employing the most appropriate and time-tested valuation methodologies
- Analysis to evaluate other potential alternative transaction structures
- Delivering a comprehensive, well documented and insightful fairness opinion report that can withstand scrutiny of the highest standards
