Does IP have value in Financial Distress?
For companies in financial distress or undergoing a corporate restructuring or business transformation, it is important to identify and appraise all of the key assets of the business that will either facilitate a successful turnaround or be sold to recover value, should the worst case occur.
Our IP valuations are being used by:
- Bankruptcy and restructuring advisors: identifying IP value that can be recovered from distressed businesses to facilitate a turnaround or to maximize recovery for creditors. View client results of intellectual property valuation in bankruptcy scenarios.
- Lenders making decisions on new or stretch lending: wanting to understand the ‘downside’ valuation – what is the IP likely to be worth if the worst were to happen and IP is sold to recover value. Our downside IP valuations are benchmarked to our proprietary IP sales database to provide commercially realistic IP valuations, using our decades of experience in selling intellectual property from insolvent scenarios. View client results of valuation of IP in downside scenarios for lenders and investors.
