R&D Tax Specialists
R&D tax credits provide essential support for businesses investing in innovation, but the true value of intellectual property (IP) goes beyond immediate tax relief.
For R&D tax firms, working with AMCO’s IP valuation services can help clients capitalise on their IP for broader business growth opportunities, from balance sheet capitalisation to fundraising and preparing for a sale.
With over 30 years of experience, AMCO delivers accurate IP valuations, helping R&D tax firms enhance their clients’ claims, unlock funding opportunities, and boost business growth.
AMCO’s expert IP valuation offers R&D tax firms and their clients multiple advantages that extend well beyond tax credits. Here’s how:
How IP Valuation Benefits R&D Tax Firms’ Clients
Our services offer the following benefits:
Balance Sheet Capitalisation
AMCO helps businesses accurately value their intellectual property assets—such as patents, trademarks, and designs—allowing them to capitalise these assets on their balance sheets.
This provides a clearer picture of a company’s true worth and strengthens financial positions, which is crucial when negotiating deals, attracting investors, or preparing for growth.
Unlocking Capital Through Fundraising
IP valuation plays a key role in fundraising efforts. Increasingly, banks and private lenders are issuing loans based on the value of intellectual property alone, allowing businesses to unlock liquidity without relying solely on physical assets.
By partnering with AMCO, R&D tax firms can help their clients secure financing backed by their IP, enabling them to invest in further innovation and perpetuate more growth.
Maximising Value in the Event of a Sale
In the event of a sale or acquisition, accurate IP valuation is critical for ensuring that businesses receive full value for their intangible assets. AMCO’s detailed IP valuations ensure that all intellectual property is properly accounted for and valued, allowing companies to maximise their sale price.
This gives R&D tax firms’ clients a significant advantage during exit strategies, ensuring they capture the full value of their R&D efforts.
Enhancing Strategic Tax Planning
Beyond immediate tax credits, AMCO’s valuations contribute to long-term tax planning by helping firms and their clients understand the ongoing value and potential of their IP assets. This insight supports more effective financial forecasting and strategic decision-making.
