Valuation Support
Independent valuation analysis to support a price, a purchase price allocation, or a board that needs a defensible number.
Discuss a deal Engagement modelsWhat we do
Valuation work sits alongside our diligence practice — the same reconciled databook that supports a QoE also supports a defensible valuation.
- Business valuation. DCF, comparable company and precedent transaction analysis, triangulated to a range rather than a single point.
- Purchase price allocation. Allocation of consideration across identifiable assets and goodwill following an acquisition.
- Valuation cross-checks. An independent second view where an existing valuation needs testing before a board or investment committee.
- Scenario and sensitivity work. What has to be true for the price to make sense, and what breaks the thesis.
Outputs you receive
- Valuation model in Excel with visible, auditable formulas and documented assumptions.
- Comparable company and precedent transaction analysis with source references.
- Sensitivity tables across the drivers that actually move the answer.
- A written summary setting out approach, assumptions, range and the key judgement calls.
Where it fits with diligence
After a QoE
Normalised EBITDA from the diligence flows straight into the valuation as a defensible base.
Alongside a databook
Reconciled historicals mean the valuation is built on numbers that tie to source.
Feeding a model
Valuation output plugs into the investor pack or fundraising model.
Frequently asked questions
Do you provide formal valuation opinions for statutory purposes?
We provide valuation analysis and support. Where a statutory or regulatory opinion requires a specific licensed signatory in your jurisdiction, we work alongside that signatory rather than replacing them.
What is the typical turnaround?
A standalone valuation analysis usually runs 5–10 business days once historical financials are available and reconciled.
Can you test a valuation someone else prepared?
Yes. An independent cross-check is a common request before an investment committee or board decision.
Need a number you can defend?
Send the historicals and the question you need answered.
