Provide an Independent Fairness Opinion

Fairness opinions are frequently obtained in connection with transactions to assist directors or fiduciaries of entities to understand if the consideration paid or received is fair from a financial point of view. With deep technical expertise, Huron Transaction Advisory professionals can analyze the financial aspects of a proposed transaction and provide critical independent support during the transaction process.

Streamline Business Enterprise and Equity Valuation

The economic, regulatory and consumer dynamics that affect the value of an organization are changing. Huron’s financial, accounting and appraisal experts have decades of experience guiding businesses across industries through valuation exercises to support mergers and acquisitions, strategic planning, financial reporting, and compliance.

Assess Real Estate and Equipment Valuations

Valuation of equipment and real estate can be a complicated and critical part of any transaction. Huron professionals value equipment and real estate on a stand-alone basis and as part of acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and leaseback transactions. In addition, we perform fair market value rental studies of both real estate and equipment.

Capture Intangible Asset Value

In an acquisition, organizations often struggle to determine the value of intangible assets such as intellectual property, customer relationships and the value of a brand. Huron works with organizations to ensure the value of all assets are accounted for during a transaction.

Understand Facility Life Value

Facility life significantly increases the accuracy of financial reporting and forecasting by determining the remaining useful life of buildings and their components. Huron’s experience and methodology provides a cost-effective way to improve your bottom line.

Improve Analysis of Merits and Risks of Transactions

Organizations need trusted data and analysis when evaluating the risks and rewards of any transaction. We review third-party firms’ valuation reports to help organizations determine if they conform with industry standards, and we provide valuable insights for clients looking to make acquisitions or be acquired.
