VALLARIS™ values patents, trademarks and brands, software and technology, and customer relationships, for licensing and sale, IP financing, purchase price allocation, tax and disputes.
Intangible asset valuation sets the value of assets you cannot touch: patents, trademarks and brands, software and technology, customer relationships, licences and know-how. The main methods are relief from royalty, the multi-period excess earnings method and the with-and-without method, applied under IFRS 13 and the International Valuation Standards.
A licensee, buyer or lender needs an independent value before it commits.
The accounts need the brands, technology and customer relationships recognised at fair value.
Infringement or a licence dispute needs damages measured by an expert the tribunal will hear.
I am on the official List of Experts for IP valuation kept by the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore. Intangible assets are now most of what many companies are worth, so I value them with the care a balance sheet asset gets.

Patents and technology are valued with relief from royalty, the multi-period excess earnings method or a with-and-without comparison, depending on how the asset earns and what market evidence exists.
It values the primary intangible asset, often customer relationships or technology, as the cash flows it generates after charging a fair return on every other asset that helps produce them.
Yes. Lenders and investors increasingly accept IP as collateral or as the basis of a valuation, and an independent IP valuation is usually required before they commit.
