Fairness Opinions
In recent years, the Group’s Executives and Senior Staff have built up a high reputation in the financial and legal community for issuing in-depth and impartial fairness opinions.
In view of the recent regulations and heightening concerns about potential conflicts of interest between a company and its shareholders, a fairness opinion helps to mitigate possible risks and the associated disputes. A fairness opinion by a qualified and independent financial advisor like The Pintus Group LLC is one of the most effective risk management tools available to ensure that a robust corporate judgment has been made in different types of company transactions. The Group provides fairness opinions and analyses to Boards, and independent Board and Shareholder Committees.
Additionally, the Group provides objective advice on the valuation of assets and securities related to transactions involving mergers, acquisitions, leveraged restructurings, private transactions and other marketed securities. In preparing a fairness opinion or evaluation, the Group’s professional Team adopts various methodologies, which may include the following:
The impartial objective evidence provided in a fairness opinion is often needed in a number of situations, including mergers and acquisitions, restructuring, borrowing and privatisations.
