For all your private company valuations needs
Detailed, accurate and HMRC compliant valuations you and your clients can trust.
Detailed, accurate and HMRC compliant valuations you and your clients can trust.
Dealing with clients who need private company valuations can be a thankless task.
Valuations can be time-consuming, cause backlogs in your caseload and are required to pass the increasingly challenging standards of HMRC and other tax or regulatory authorities.
Athla’s private company valuation service will help you overcome these hurdles.
We understand private companies and what to look for when valuing them.
We value both wholly owned or majority / minority shareholdings and understand even the most complex cap tables and waterfalls.
We’ve completed valuations for every size of business and every type of corporate structure you can think of (and quite a few you can’t!).
We also value assets including real estate, IP, royalty streams and all sorts of other unusual asset classes.
So, whether you need to value a company with a turnover of £6k or £600m, with a simple or complex structure, Athla can help.
We value companies and shares for often complex family and private client scenarios. We also provide valuations for other assets such as real estate and IP Rights (including artistic / literary assets), and royalty streams.
We undertake highly complex valuations where a client owns an unusual asset or where an asset is held in an unusual legal structure which is not readily understood for valuation purposes. We are experts in these types of valuations and in ensuring they satisfy HMRC (and other tax authorities) or the courts as required.
When valuing private companies, arriving at the final number is only part of the challenge. Turning that hard data into something that your client can use to achieve their desired outcome is essential.
Our valuation reports are easy-to-understand for your clients so they will feel confident in using them.
Experience tells us we get better outcomes when we work in partnership with clients.
Clients have full visibility at every stage; we confer with them throughout the process and share our draft reports if required. This means we can respond and adapt to changing client needs during the valuation, while still retaining our independence, the integrity of our calculations and the clarity of our arguments.
Post valuation, we can also advise clients on other areas including how to structure share issuances.
Our valuations are always backed up by strong supporting arguments, which explain how and why a valuation was reached.
Each argument is validated against detailed, thoroughly-researched evidence, including macroeconomic conditions and company /industry factors. This ensures our valuations will withstand scrutiny if challenged.
All the evidence we use is included in the final report and the sources of any data, whether provided by the client or based on desk research, is listed in footnotes so that it can be independently verified.
We deliver detailed, accurate and robustly-argued valuations, FAST.
Our proprietary valuation tool - developed in-house – both speeds up the process and provides better accuracy. Once we have collected all the data we need, an accurate valuation can be quickly generated.
Our experienced team of analysts then gets to work to verify the valuation, providing all the supporting evidence for how the valuation was reached, and ensuring it will stand up if challenged.
We can turn around even highly complex valuations within days - as quickly as 48 hours - without sacrificing accuracy.
