Government Contractor Breakfast

Mar 8, 2011

 
I am pleased to announce that Bill Foote of Aronson & Company present the topic "Valuation of Middle Market Government Contractors" at the March 8th IMA Government Contractor Breakfast. The presentation will cover the following:

Middle market government contractors require valuations in a variety of situations. Examples include: (i) business combinations and goodwill impairment testing; (ii) converting from C Corp to S Corp status; and (iii) evaluating strategic alternatives. For a government contractor, a sound valuation will involve analysis of financial and nonfinancial information and consideration of both industry- and company-specific factors. This session will provide an introduction to the basic concepts of valuation and address key valuation trends and drivers for government services firms.

Highlights
1. Identify situations where government contractors need to be valued
2. Learn how government contractors are valued
3. Understand value drivers and trends for the government services market
