ESOP

We understand the risks to a Trustee or Plan Sponsor of an erroneous or improperly completed business valuation! Our ESOP valuation work has  withstood the scrutiny of both IRS and Department of Labor examiners in those instances where clients have been audited by IRS or DOL.Professional standards for valuation services have evolved significantly during the last several years. Professional associations which certify valuation analysts have also adopted expanded and enhanced professional standards for valuation work.
Impairment Testing  : After initial recognition, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets must be tested periodically for impairment under ASC 350. We have broad expertise in the initial  recognition of values and subsequent impairment testing. Our professionals assist in identifying  reporting units, testing for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, and estimating the fair value of such assets.
We can offer additional assurance for you, your board, and your auditors by conducting an independent review and providing support for key assumptions and forecasts related to impairment testing. We can also address auditors' concerns around consistency of approach and other issues, ultimately saving time and costs in the audit review process.
