Peter Gouw
Valuations and Tax Partner
Clients commission us to provide an independent view on the value of a business or its underlying sources of capital. Some of the most common reasons clients need a valuation include:
- M&A / Transactions
- Expert determination
- Shareholder disputes
- Investment Valuation
- Corporate Restructurings
- Fairness opinions
- Solvency opinions
- Litigation / Expert Witness / Damages Quantification
In each situation, our valuation experts develop a thorough understanding of the business in order to build a detailed picture of its underlying drivers of value at both a macro and micro level. We use this knowledge to guide our valuation modelling in the context of the available market evidence.
We use commonly accepted valuation methods – typically market multiples and DCF – with a critical part of the process being corroboration of results derived from one method against those derived from another. The end goal is to produce a highly robust valuation that stands up to external scrutiny.
We work with all sizes of business from large multinational corporations through to owner-managed businesses. For transaction-related valuation advice, we work closely with our corporate finance team in order to provide you with a full package of advice. We want to put you in the best positions at the negotiating table.
Our expertise spans a wide range of industries, from Pharmaceutical, Financial Services, Natural Resources, Power & Utilities (including Water, Oil & Gas and Renewables) and Retail through to Real Estate, Manufacturing, Technology, Media and Telecommunications.
