Companies Act valuation support identifies the corporate action and assets or securities involved before coordinating the relevant valuation requirement.
Understanding Companies Act Valuation Support
When to consider this service
Management, transaction teams and asset owners needing a valuation for a stated purpose and date can use this service to clarify a particular issue. A useful starting question is: “When is a registered-valuer engagement distinct from advisory analysis?” Begin with the facts behind that question rather than assuming that a standard package will resolve it.
Scope of work
The engagement can cover the following workstreams. The proposal specifies which apply to your matter and what evidence or specialist input is needed.
- Review the corporate action and report purpose.
- Organise financial asset and instrument data.
- Coordinate registered-valuer scope where required.
Documents and information to prepare
Start with the records below where available. They help establish the facts before a more specific checklist is agreed.
- Board proposals.
- Transaction terms.
- Financial statements.
- Ownership records.
Provide the relevant entity, transaction or reporting period and any existing notice or deadline. Identify missing or inconsistent records so they can be addressed explicitly.
A key issue to resolve
Where a registered valuer is required, general financial analysis cannot replace that professional report.
How the engagement works
- Define the question: review the corporate action and report purpose, using the available board proposals and the facts you provide.
- Examine the evidence: organise financial asset and instrument data. Record unresolved information and the assumptions that affect the analysis.
- Agree the action: coordinate registered-valuer scope where required. Set the required deliverables, responsible owners and any follow-up or external dependency.
Deliverables, fees and timing
The proposal for Companies Act Valuation Support sets out the analysis, documentation or coordination deliverables and the work you retain. The availability of board proposals, transaction terms, financial statements and ownership records affects readiness and the amount of follow-up needed. Fees and the working schedule are agreed after that initial assessment. Any required independent report, legal representation or authority application is identified as a separate responsibility where relevant.
