Business and Share Valuations
There may be times in your life when you need a business valuation or share valuation, such as on the sale, restructuring or exit from a business or for divorce or probate reasons. At Ritchie Phillips, we are experienced business valuation accountants, and our expertise and business acumen allow us to provide you with valuation advice for a wide range of transactions, most of which would be subject to external scrutiny including by HMRC.
Business valuations and litigation experience
Business valuations often form an important part of negotiation between business owners where a change of ownership is being discussed and in contested matters, a clear and accurate valuation can be key to resolving a dispute without the recourse to a court hearing. That said, the many different valuation methods and the complexity of different corporate or marital environments often mean a valuation is not straightforward. Our expertise includes providing valuations for:
- Tax valuation purposes
- Tax clearance applications
- Minority share sales
- Internal corporate reorganisations
- Management incentive arrangements
Our considerable litigation experience allows us to provide you with expert opinion in relation to contentious matters, most usually in matrimonial cases but also in commercial claims. In matrimonial cases, a business valuation can be needed to help determine the totality of the assets available for division between the parties and then who gets which assets, especially where the business is a coveted asset of one of the parties.
Our team will work in a timely manner to provide your valuation and can also provide valuable insights that can help you formulate your strategy and respond to points brought against you.
If you would like to discuss a business valuation issue with one of our accountants, and how we may be able to assist, please get in touch with us today.
