Trademark Valuations

Your firm is defending a Fortune 1000 client whose trademark values are under scrutiny by the IRS. Your corporation is looking to sell a trademark or perhaps your company wants to determine the royalty rate for licensing purposes. Each instance represents a situation where a trademark appraisal is necessary in determining the overall value of the trademark in question. Having a trademark appraisal allows firms to properly defend their position during a variety of circumstances. For litigation involving the IRS, a trademark valuation gives the parties a better understanding of the value of the company's trademarks.

Appraisal Economic's senior team members often act as expert witnesses in defending a trademark's value. Knowing the value of a trademark is an essential factor in understanding its monetary benefits, which in turn helps determine how that trademark's value affects a company's overall worth. comprehending tangible assets and intangible assets, such as trademarks, provide companies with the ability to better communicate their overall worth, as well as defend it.

Our Trademark Appraisal Methods

There are many situations where the appraisal of a trademark comes into question. The strategy an appraisal company uses to determine the valuation of trademarks directly affects the calculation of a company's overall worth. As such, it's necessary to understand the appraisal firm's methodology before making a decision about the firm you hire. Appraisal Economics ensures an accurate, defensible and objective trademark valuation by employing some of the industry's best engineers, tax, and appraisal consultants.

Our methods begin with an in-depth meeting between Appraisal Economics and the company's management team to discuss historical records and financial projections for the trademarks. It's imperative that a trademark valuation take into account name recognition, advertising expenses, the competition, the overall financial performance, and prospects for the future. The next step is to perform an in-depth search to gain information regarding market royalty rates on comparable trademarks. Then we analyze historical investments that were made to promote these trademarks. Our professionals complete a thorough financial analysis, which includes a development of all assumptions and valuation models that are necessary in determining both the royalty rate and fair market value.
