of Interests in Closely Held Businesses
In the course of resolving a business dispute, negotiating a divorce settlement, planning an estate, or buying and selling stock, the value of interests in closely held businesses is often in question. Without a ready market for these interests, estimates of value can be difficult to obtain. In the absence of readily available pricing information, interests in closely held business must be valued independently. Adams Capital is experienced in the valuation of such interests. Our backgrounds in finance, accounting, taxation, and law, and our experience with over 2,000 public and private transactions, provides credible valuation conclusions. The professionals at Adams Capital are experienced in selecting the most appropriate valuation approach based on a particular engagement’s circumstances. We typically consider the value of assets net of liabilities, cash flows generated, similar publicly traded companies, and recent transactions involving similar companies. In addition, the value of an interest in a closely held business can vary substantially based on its level of significance (controlling versus minority interest) and the degree to which its marketability is impaired (simple lack of a ready market versus an outright restriction on sale or transfer). We are knowledgeable in the selection and support of discounts and premiums in our determinations of value. Adams Capital is experienced in defending its conclusions in acquisitions, divestitures, and mergers, both in court and before the IRS. Return to Products & Services Page |
