Goodwill, intellectual property and other intangible assets can represent significant capital value in a business, yet their valuation requires a substantially different approach from conventional property or physical asset valuation.
A2Z Valuers provides Goodwill & Intangibles Capital Gain Valuation for transactions, restructuring, succession, taxation, capital gains, business transfers, slump sales and other statutory requirements where an independently concluded value is required.
Depending on the nature of the intangible, the valuation may consider goodwill, brand value, trademarks, patents, know-how, customer relationships, contractual rights and other identifiable intangible assets. The appropriate valuation methodology is selected after examining the nature, ownership, economic benefit and commercial life of the asset.
Intangible asset valuation requires an assessment of the economic benefit generated by the asset, the rights attached to it and the evidence supporting its commercial value.
Valuation of business goodwill arising from reputation, customer loyalty, established relationships, market position, earning capacity and other commercial advantages associated with an established enterprise.
BUSINESS VALUEValuation of brands, trademarks and trade names where an identifiable economic benefit is attached to the brand, including situations involving business transfers, restructuring or capital asset transactions.
BRAND EQUITYValuation of patents, proprietary technology, technical know-how and commercial rights by considering the expected economic benefits and the rights available to the owner.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTYWhere relevant, valuation may consider customer relationships, contractual rights, licences and other identifiable intangible assets that contribute independently to the economic value of a business or transaction.
COMMERCIAL RIGHTSThe appropriate approach depends on the nature of the intangible asset, available financial information, expected economic benefits and the purpose of the engagement.
Whether the requirement relates to capital gains, business restructuring, succession, taxation, a transaction or another statutory purpose, begin with the asset, purpose and required valuation date.
