Insights from Our Valuation Practice: Liquidation Preferences & Valuation Methodologies
Our valuation practice has been heavily focused on helping fund managers, auditors, and investors navigate the complexities of private company valuation — particularly when it comes to liquidation preferences, complex capital structures, and audit support. This topic continues to be highly relevant for venture capital, private equity, and growth-stage investments where information rights are limited and methodologies must stand up to auditor scrutiny.
In the premiere video of our brand new series, the Value Add, Houlihan Capital’s Monica Blocker and Joe Brennan dive into the key differences between the Option Pricing Model (OPM) and Common Stock Equivalent (CSE) approaches, discussing when each is most appropriate and how our team works closely with clients to deliver defensible, consistent valuations that support both internal and external reporting requirements.
Watch the full discussion below to hear how Houlihan Capital assists funds with navigating these challenges.
