Acquisition-related fair market valuation for large automotive OEM

Fair Value of Transaction Assets - Financial Reporting Purposes

We were engaged by a U.S. based automotive OEM to provide valuation services related to an acquisition.

Our role was to determine the fair value of certain assets acquired in the transaction, which involved the purchase of an automotive technology company specializing in the development of precision steering, car and lane tracking, adaptive speed control, collision-avoidance components, and other capabilities for autonomous vehicles. The scope of our work also included the determination of the fair value of certain contingent consideration with milestone achievement hurdles, which was accounted for as compensation given the future employee service requirements.

Our analysis was used by the OEM’s management to satisfy financial reporting requirements.
