Fairness Opinions

A fairness opinion including a financial company valuation of a business is normally one of the first steps in an acquisition, merger or divestment process. ScandCap has extensive experience of valuating businesses from a broad range of industries taking into consideration the unique situation of the individual business.

We have a pragmatic approach to valuations. Assets sell at a price a buyer is willing to pay and a seller is willing to accept. The value of a company cannot be derived by simply applying formulas on historical data and using general industry multiples.

When we can support you

• You need to determine the fair value of a business
• You are preparing to divestment of your business
• You have received an offer for your business and need to verify the fairness of the offer
• You are planning to acquire a business
• You are considering to merge two or more businesses

How we can add value

Our fairness opinions are based on e.g.:

• Assessment of historical performance including any extraordinary and non-related costs and revenues
• Interviews with the company’s management (if possible)
• Collection of independent market research and references
• Establishing short and long term financial forecasts
• Fundamental cash flow analysis
• Analysis of comparable listed companies
• Comparison with relevant transactions in the industry
