Our valuation experience encompasses a number of industries including high tech, biotech, professional sports franchises, oil and gas, consumer goods, health care, heavy manufacturing, construction, retail, startups and small, closely-held businesses. Gleason & Associates brings years of financial and economic expertise to each client engagement.

Gleason & Associates has conducted valuation analyses in hundreds of engagements involving businesses and assets for a wide variety of purposes, including:
  • Mergers and acquisitions
  • Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
  • Financial Reporting (FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations and Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Others)
  • Deferred compensation (IRC 409A and FASB ASC Subtopic 505-50, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees and Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation)
  • Estate and gift taxes
  • Shareholder disputes and litigation claims
  • Reorganization
  • Intellectual property

We are well versed in the recognized methods of valuing businesses and assets, but also apply informed common sense to reach our conclusions. We bring the accounting, financial, economic, industry experience and certifications needed to perform business valuation services with confidence and assurance.

Because of the nature of our specialized practice, many of our valuation analyses are subject to scrutiny from opposing parties and auditors. Therefore, Gleason & Associates applies a collaborative, team-oriented work and review process to each engagement involving the firm's top managers to ensure quality. Without an audit or tax practice, we do not have the potential conflicts of interest and independence issues typical of "Big 4" accounting firms.
