Columbia West Capital utilizes a comprehensive approach to provide clients with a detailed business valuation for tax or estate purposes. Additionally, we can provide a Fairness Opinion for mergers and acquisitions transactions that involve a diverse set of shareholders.
Fairness Opinions
We can assist with fairness opinions that provide an independent and unbiased opinion as to the fairness of a merger, sale or acquisition transaction. Upon completing a thorough due diligence process to understand the transaction and the variables within such a transaction, we can provide a thorough analysis of the transaction which:
- Places a defensible valuation on the transaction;
- Carefully considers both financial and structural considerations;
- Provides a discussion of the alternatives to the transaction; and
- Takes into account the financial, legal, accounting, and tax implications of the deal.
The firm has particular experience with providing fairness opinions for transactions and businesses with unique circumstances.
