Familiarity with Regulatory Requirements
Withum has extensive experience working with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), Internal Revenue Service (IRS), principal court jurisdictions, and comparable regulatory bodies in other countries. Our broad experience can help you better understand how these regulatory authorities could potentially view your positions on valuation issues. Since the introduction of FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations and FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, a significant focus of valuation work has been on the application and implementation of these acquisition accounting and goodwill impairment requirements. Based on our in-depth knowledge of fair value measurement concepts, we understand how these requirements for financial reporting purposes may differ and the best practices to support a defensible fair value estimate subject to audit review.
Our professionals are well-versed in the valuation of estate and gifts for tax purposes and work closely with the firm’s estate and trust tax experts. Estate valuation is necessary when determining the amount of federal estate taxes an entity owes, the business interest of the beneficiaries, and the fair market value as a whole. Gift tax must also be a consideration in the valuation to deem proper liability and avoid underpayment to the IRS.
Withum’s team also provides business valuation reports in conjunction with the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) 7(a) loan program. Based on our deep understanding of fair value measurement concepts, we understand how these requirements for the SBA’s Standard Operating Procedures may differ from valuations for other purposes.
