Business Valuations

Our business valuation practice focuses on providing our clients with a defensible valuation number or range, supported by varying levels of reports. Our short-form reports can be as limited as a one or two page written report--often used for initial planning or feasibility purposes. Our comprehensive, full scope valuation reports include significant detail of the various valuation methods used, the relevant case law considered, industry and economic issues, and detailed analysis of the company, etc.

Being based in the San Francisco Bay area, we encounter technology companies very frequently. We have worked with firms in all stages of development (Concept, Startup, Product Development, Product Shipping and Revenue Generating) and nearly every stage of financing (Friends and Family, Angel, Seed, First-Third, Mezzanine/Bridge, and IPO).

We have performed valuation analysis in a wide variety of industries, including:

• Early Stage, Venture Backed Companies and Industries
  • Information Technology, Software/gaming
  • Healthcare, Healthcare Services, Medical Devices
  • Electronics, Semiconductor Equipment, Mobile Communications
  • Biotechnology
  • Nanotechnology

• Professional practices--Legal and Medical ,Architectural and Engineering Firms
• Manufacturing firms in a variety of industries
• Distributors
• Auto Dealerships
• Telecommunications
• Recycling--Industrial, Electronics, Consumer

We endeavor at all times to provide unbiased, defensible valuation reports for all of our engagements. We believe in following proven financial and valuation techniques as a standard practice and strive to achieve the highest levels of professionalism in our work.

Our Litigation Support practice overlaps our valuation practice in that many of our valuation engagements are driven by some form of litigation. Additionally, we can provide a breadth of services in support of the legal community in such areas as:

• Calculation of Lost Wages and Benefits
• Calculation of Economic Damages
• Calculation of Lost Profits
• Royalty Claims
• Valuation of intangibles such as Non-compete Agreements and Employment Contracts
• Business Interruption issues
• California Section 2000 corporate dissolutions

Since most litigation matters consist of unique variables and circumstances, we tailor our analysis and reports for every engagement, and expect that our work product will hold up to rigorous scrutiny, whether we have been hired by plaintiff, defendant, or jointly by the court.

Our financial consulting experience lends itself well to the creation of forecasting models of various types. These models are typically created using input from Omega Valuations, Inc. and our clients, and have covered a wide range of topics, including:

• Creation of daily cash flow reports and operating metrics
• Creation of multi-scenario detailed leverage buyout models
• S Corporation ESOP buyout models
• C Corporation ESOP buyout models
• Company specific revenue, cost and forecasting models
• Acquisition feasibility
• Corporate Spin-offs and Split offs
• Company specific revenue, cost and forecasting models

We are always happy to discuss new engagement opportunities and ways we may be able to assist our clients with our analytical experience and expertise.
