High
Technology
Recent
volatility in the stock prices of high tech firms
emphasizes the importance of careful valuations of
these types of businesses.
Unlike companies in other, more mature
industries, most high tech firms have little
history; and, therefore the techniques use to
evaluate them must be different.
We appreciate the unique challenges posed by
these types of companies.
We
have been engaged to assist a variety of high
technology firms, including:
- Chip
makers
- Computer
assemblers/manufacturers
- Communications
equipment manufacturers
- Other
equipment manufacturers
- Computer
retailers
- Software
designers
Through
our offices in two of the major high tech hubs,
Silicone Valley and Los Angeles, we are able to
provide knowledgeable and responsive service to this
important sector of the economy.
Our principles are frequent speakers in this
area.
The
needs of our clients are as varied as the types of
companies we serve.
One of our services, business valuations, is
used for a number of purposes, including: mergers
and acquisitions; initial public offerings; purchase
price allocations for financial statement and tax
purposes; gift and estate taxation; the awarding of
corporate stock or stock options; corporate
planning; etc.
We have found that for many of these types of
companies, the process of getting to a value is as
important – or, even more important than – the
value itself.
