Why is valuation important for shareholder agreements or disputes?

Valuation plays a key role in shareholder agreements and disputes by offering a transparent and unbiased foundation for determining share ownership, buyouts, and resolving conflicts. Accurate valuations help promote fairness and minimize disagreements among stakeholders. Common use cases include mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; employee share ownership plans and stock options; shareholder agreements and disputes; financial reporting for private markets; purchase price allocations; and impairment testing of intangible assets.
