A fairness opinion is a report with the primary objective of determining whether a business transaction is fair from a financial point of view to other parties, such as, but not limited to, shareholders and retirement plan beneficiaries who are not directly involved in the actual dealings that include negotiations and execution. Such reports are usually sanctioned by top management in order to obtain a non-biased third-party opinion that attests to the fairness of the transactions.
We conduct rigorous valuation reviews and provide our clients with fairness opinions in regards to their transactions such as buybacks, spin-offs and private placements.
