Portfolio ValuationASC 820
Independent valuation of illiquid securities across the capital structure provides transparency to investors and regulators alike. We provide objective value assessments to general and limited partners seeking support for audit compliance, investor reporting, and fund-level disclosures.
Goodwill Impairment ASC 350
Goodwill, which arises in acquisitions when the purchase
price exceeds the fair value of net assets, is subject to periodic testing. Our independent analyses evaluate whether the carrying value remains supportable, typically performed annually or following events such as declining performance, market disruption, or leadership changes.
Equity CompensationASC 805
Following an acquisition, ASC 805 calls for allocation of the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets at fair value. We provide valuation analyses to help companies reflect the transaction appropriately in financial statements and meet audit and reporting requirements.
ASC 718
IRC 409a
Purchase Price Allocation Valuing stock options, RSUs, and other equity-based awards may be necessary for tax and financial reporting purposes, particularly for startups and private companies issuing compensation subject to 409A requirements. We deliver independent valuations to assist companies in meeting compliance standards when issuing compensation tied to equity.
