Background
Ocean Tomo was retained by an electronics components company that would provide capital equal to the intellectual property (IP) contributions of a private flexible electronics company in a newly formed joint venture. The client requested that Ocean Tomo provide a valuation opinion regarding the fair market value of the IP. Ocean Tomo was retained based on our experience in advanced materials.
Engagement
As the technology being considered for the joint venture had only partial proof of concept, it was imperative that the analysis account for risks and expenses related to developing the commercial product.
Results
We provided our client with a valuation assessment that considered a path to commercialization, with financial and technology-related input from both sides of the potential venture. Our client, satisfied with our deliverable, continued to negotiate the appropriate structure of the potential venture.
