Fairness Opinions
Fiduciaries call upon Cogent Valuation to independently analyze the fairness of corporate transactions such as business sales, mergers and acquisitions, roll-ups, leveraged buy-outs, divestitures, and corporate restructurings. Cogent Valuation has issued independent fairness opinions for a wide variety of stakeholders, including public shareholders, common and preferred stockholders in private companies, limited partners, warrant and option holders, employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) and charitable foundations. Cogent Valuation is independent and therefore free of the conflicts of interest (most notably success fees) that compromise the credibility of some providers.
