Structured Finance Valuation Opinions
Asset intensive projects are most often financed with structured finance transactions (lease, sale leaseback, synthetic lease, tax equity investment, etc.) are more complex than a traditional collateral debt agreement due to the specific valuation opinions necessary to meet US tax requirements. Our specialists provide the independent value opinions and consulting required to complete a well-documented tax beneficial financing transaction (compulsion, economic useful life, fair market value in continued use, limited use, residual value, etc.) including cost segregation analyses.
Dispute resolution and litigation support analyses are also provided, typically related to a disagreement over a residual value buyout, early buyout option, and shareholder suppression.
