transaction opinions

Independent solvency opinions can help mitigate risk.  Our independent assessment gives comfort that an entity has an asset value in excess of its debts, is able to pay its debts, has sufficient net assets or capital and has sufficient surplus capital pro forma for a distribution — where applicable. 

Our opinions help clients to be satisfied that dividends, distributions and other leveraged financings can be consummated without leaving the corporation insolvent or with insufficient capital.

Clients boards of directors have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of their companies’ investors. 

Working directly with a client management and legal counsel, we can build a concise, transaction-specific statement regarding the fairness of a proposed corporate action from a financial perspective. 

Combining analytics with our operational expertise, we provide transaction due diligence and frame a clear, industry-relevant valuation analysis that supports our opinions. We are able to offer opinion services for a variety of transactions, including:   

• Spin-offs  
• Leveraged buy-outs and dividends  
• Management buy-outs  
• Public to Privatizations  
• Related-parties transactions  
• Buy & sell-side mergers and acquisitions
