Matthias Meitner

VALUESQUE is a leading boutique for business valuations in Germany. Its promise is to deliver high-quality and highly decision-useful services to clients.

What we do

VALUESQUE provides all sorts of business valuation services. From typical investment support (Fairness Opinions, Decision-Oriented Modelling, Due Diligence, etc.) and ongoing investment services (fund investment valuation, value monitoring, supervision services, holding reporting and management) to appraisals for tax, accounting, distress-related, cartel-related and other legal reasons (e.g. squeeze-out, shareholder expulsion, etc.) and all sorts of litigation services (tax, matrimonial, etc.).

VALUESQUE also intensively covers topics such as start-up valuation or IP and intangibles valuation, and feels home both in small- and medium sized Enterprises as well as in large corporates.

How we differ from others

VALUESQUE differs from most other valuation service providers in two respects:

• We have a deep investment and decision making background. We know how to value businesses from an investment point of view. VALUESQUE does not only follow some rules but fortifies its valuations with strong analytical economic content. This allows clients to take the most out of our valuations: they not only get a value number but also a lot of new insight into business models, market and competitive situations – and the value effects thereof.
• We are not only practitioners, we are also very versed in all relevant academic aspects. In Germany, many business valuation cases (in particular appraisals) have a strong link to valuation theory. The success of clients’ valuations not rarely depends heavily on how close they are to the top of what is theoretically possible. VALUESQUE is able to apply the whole spectrum of valuation concepts and models, if necessary.

Where we are leading

Although VALUESQUE provides services in all fields of business valuation, we are particularly strong if valuation cases get complex, if they require a lot of theoretical input and/or if they involve a lot of fundamental analytical work and business model understanding. These are the fields where we clearly have a market leading position. 

Valuing your Business is Our Business! Goal-Oriented – Quality-Addicted – Economic-Content-Focussed!
