Company valuation: Purposes

There are many occasions for getting company valuations done. These can be differentiated based on whether they are transaction specific or non-transaction specific. The most common cases we handle company valuations at Benefitax are for the acquisition of a company or for a tax return (e.g. in case of a gift or inheritance).

Transaction specific purposes:

• Purchase or sale of a company or a business unit
• Change in the composition of a partnership
• Exclusion of shareholders from GmbH with cash settlement

Non-transaction specific purposes:

• Credit assessment
• Valuation in the course of a settlement of an estate
• Valuation for the purpose of financial reporting
• Valuation for the determination of tax bases
• Calculations of guarantee claims as per the company acquisitions
