Four Documents.
One Complete Picture.
Every Verum engagement ends with a complete deliverable package — not a number in a spreadsheet. Four documents designed to be used, not filed.
Built to hold up anywhere you need it.
In the Boardroom
Built around the three demands that matter most to institutional stakeholders — governance, reporting, and investment committee decisions — with documentation to match each one.
At the Negotiating Table
Supports buy-side, sell-side, and capital raise transactions from first indication of value through to close — with a defensible, fully documented figure at every critical milestone.
In the Audit File
Independent, fully documented valuations prepared specifically for tax, estate, and regulatory purposes — meeting the evidentiary standard each authority requires.
Valuation Report
The core document. A rigorous, fully-documented valuation of the business or asset — combining multiple methodologies into a single, defensible conclusion of value. Every assumption is stated, every method is explained, and every number is traceable. Built to survive scrutiny from a counterparty, an auditor, or an investment committee.
- Executive summary with conclusion of value
- Business and industry overview
- Financial analysis and normalization
- DCF valuation with full assumptions and sensitivity
- Market comparables (trading and transaction multiples)
- Valuation bridge and reconciliation across methods
- Valuation Confidence Rating with factor breakdown
IC Memo
The investment committee memorandum. A concise, structured summary of the valuation engagement designed for decision-makers who need the conclusions, the logic, and the key risks — without reading the full report. Written in the language of investment professionals. One document that can stand alone in a board package.
- Transaction or engagement context
- Business description and key value drivers
- Methodology summary and conclusion of value
- Bull case and bear case summary
- Key risks and mitigants
- Valuation Confidence Rating and rationale
- Recommendation or decision framework
Risk & Scenario Report
The full risk picture. Not just a valuation range — a structured analysis of the optimistic and adverse scenarios, the assumptions that drive them, and the sensitivity of the result to the key variables. Designed for clients who need to understand not just what the business is worth today, but what it could be worth under different futures.
- Optimistic scenario: assumptions, drivers, and valuation
- Adverse scenario: assumptions, risks, and valuation
- Monte Carlo simulation output and probability distribution
- Sensitivity analysis on key value drivers
- Scenario comparison table and range summary
- Key risk register with probability and impact ratings
Valuation Confidence Rating
The number that explains the number. An explicit score — expressed as a rating from 1 to 10 — indicating how much confidence to place in the valuation result, and why. Built from seven weighted factors: data quality, assumption supportability, methodology fit, business complexity, market comparability, forecast reliability, and time sensitivity.
No other firm gives you this. Most valuations tell you what the business is worth. The Confidence Rating tells you how much to trust it.
Strong data quality, well-supported assumptions, deep market comparables.
Data Quality
How complete, audited, and internally consistent the financial records are.
Assumption Supportability
Degree to which each key assumption underlying the valuation is grounded in verifiable evidence, market data, or audited history — rather than projection, expectation, or management preference.
Methodology Fit
Degree to which each key assumption underlying the valuation is grounded in verifiable evidence, market data, or audited history — rather than projection, expectation, or management preference.
Business Complexity
How operational, structural, and jurisdictional complexity widens or narrows the valuation range.
Market Comparability
Availability and relevance of comparable transactions and companies in the market at the time of valuation — and how closely they reflect the subject company's size, sector, and risk profile.
Forecast Reliability
Track record and credibility of management projections assessed against actual historical performance, industry benchmarks, and the consistency of prior forecast accuracy.
Time Sensitivity
An assessment of whether market conditions at the valuation date — including volatility, liquidity constraints, interest rate environment, or macroeconomic headwinds — are introducing meaningful uncertainty into the final number and how sensitive that number is to a shift in those conditions.
