With our experienced valuation experts, we assist entrepreneurs and investors with valuation issues relating to traditional M&A transactions, succession situations and restructuring.

Whether established companies, start-ups, private equity investments or companies in crisis: with our expert value analysis, we create the basis for every entrepreneurial initiative related to a transaction.

Together with our clients, we identify opportunities to increase value and optimize the company.
To this end, we design customized strategies and recommendations for action to increase the company's value in the long term. FalkenSteg develops tailor-made solutions for specific sectors and market environments using recognized valuation methods (discounted cash flow, multiples) as well as modern databases and analysis tools.

Specifically, we generate added value for our clients for the following valuation occasions and objects:

• Carrying out company valuations in the context of company acquisitions and disposals
• Development and evaluation of transparent and transaction-oriented integrated financial models
• Identification of value enhancement potential and potential risks during sales preparations and due diligence reviews
• Deriving specific financing requirements and options on the basis of integrated financial models, the capital structure and the risk profile
• Provision of adequate financing via FalkenSteg's corporate finance experts (equity and debt capital)
• Support in achieving the best possible negotiation results in the context of corporate transactions and financing rounds

Arbitration cases are rapidly gaining in importance in an international context - particularly in the aftermath of M&A transactions. They open up the possibility of settling disputes out of court through mediation or a binding judgment.

FalkenSteg creates added value for the parties involved in the proceedings by clearly processing, analyzing and structuring disputed valuation issues with a high degree of economic complexity.
In this way, we enable a fact-based and consistent communication strategy to strengthen the legal argumentation in negotiations. In doing so, FalkenSteg concentrates on the neuralgic legal and economic points of contention at the earliest possible stage.

We primarily deal with the valuation and / or the valuation methodology applied in classic share deal transactions. We cover the entire spectrum of valuation practice.

• Independent assessment of valuation issues in the context of corporate transactions / carve-outs
• Assessment of underlying business and financial issues for plaintiffs or defendants
• Preparation of expert opinions on valuation issues for court decision-makers, e.g. arbitration tribunals
• Advising plaintiffs and/or defendants on the assessment of business and financial issues

Our valuation experts are also regularly appointed as independent experts by arbitration courts.
As experts listed with the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), among others, we have extensive experience with Swiss arbitration proceedings (also under Liechtenstein law).
