Transaction Quantum

The economic quantification of transactions is a central element of EE&MC's economic valuation work. The aim is to determine the economic value of individual transactions or contractual mechanisms, for example in the case of company takeovers, post-merger disputes, earn-out agreements, price renegotiations or the valuation of financial claims.

EE&MC understands transaction quantification as an analytical valuation process based on empirically sound models. The economic valuation is based on market data, financial indicators, competition parameters and risk-adjusted cash flow analyses. It integrates theoretical concepts from investment economics and market structure theory in order to quantitatively capture value creation along the relevant influencing factors.

The analyses focus on the model-based reconstruction of a counterfactual scenario that depicts the hypothetical development without the disputed event. By comparing this reference scenario with the actual economic development, the quantitative effects of an action, breach of contract or external shock can be measured.

EE&MC uses econometric estimation models, dynamic equilibrium analyses and scenario simulations to precisely isolate and empirically prove the economic effects. This approach allows the real transaction value to be assessed not only retrospectively but also prospectively. Uncertainties and risk factors are explicitly modelled, with their weighting based on empirically observable market conditions. The result is a quantitatively robust and theoretically coherent valuation that meets both scientific and forensic standards.
