In the battle of experts, one weapon simply isn’t enough

Description

Abstract: Business appraisers generally consider several valuation methods in reaching a value conclusion. In one case in Delaware, a court found the petitioner’s valuation expert to be “totally, completely unreliable,” in large part because she’d relied exclusively on one valuation technique. This article discusses the three most common valuation approaches and the importance of using multiple valuation methods whenever possible to support value conclusions.
