Corporate & Financial Reporting Valuations
The valuations your reporting calendar demands.
Close an acquisition and a purchase price allocation comes due. Grant share awards and each tranche needs a fair value. Issue a convertible, hold a loan book, hit an impairment trigger: every one of these arrives with an accounting standard attached, an audit deadline behind it, and no appetite at your auditor for a number without support.
Verified Metrics handles the technical valuations that come with the territory. Each one is delivered as a memo, a working model, and a support file built to the same standard as our portfolio valuation work: your auditor can take it apart and find the answer to every question inside.
These are calendar items, not strategy projects, and we treat them that way. Fixed fee per item, quoted fast, delivered ahead of the reporting date.
Why Verified Metrics
- One standard of support. The same audit-ready support files we build for portfolio marks, applied to every instrument and obligation. Nothing arrives as a number on a page.
- Standards-literate. Work is prepared against the framework your auditor will test it under: IFRS, US GAAP, or HKFRS.
- Built for the deadline. Fixed scope, fixed fee, and a delivery date set against your reporting calendar, not our pipeline.
- The hard instruments are the point. Market-condition awards, embedded derivatives, and ECL models need simulation and recomputation, not a template. Our engine does this work daily.
- Auditor queries included. We answer the questions our valuations raise, through sign-off.
What this covers
- Purchase price allocations: intangible asset identification, useful lives, and goodwill (IFRS 3 / ASC 805)
- Impairment testing: annual and trigger-driven, at the CGU or reporting-unit level (IAS 36 / ASC 350)
- Share-based payments and stock award valuations: options, RSUs, and market-condition awards such as TSR plans, valued by Monte Carlo simulation (IFRS 2 / ASC 718)
- Financial instruments: convertibles, warrants, preference shares, and embedded derivatives, at issuance and at each reporting date (IFRS 9 / IFRS 13)
- Expected credit losses and loan book valuations: PD/LGD/EAD modeling, staging, and forward-looking scenarios for lenders and private credit funds (IFRS 9 / CECL)
- Employee benefits including Long Service Payment obligations
- Fair value of unquoted equity and derivative investments
