How accurate is the Asset Valuator in Opagio Intangibles?

Short Answer

The Asset Valuator applies the method you choose to the assumptions you enter, so its fair value estimate is only as reliable as those inputs. Opagio is not a valuer, and its outputs are not a signed valuation.

Full Explanation

The Asset Valuator in Opagio Intangibles is a calculation tool, so its accuracy depends on the assumptions you enter and on whether the method suits the asset. It values one intangible asset at a time using a method you choose from seven: Relief from Royalty, MPEEM, With and Without, Replacement Cost, Cost Approach, Greenfield and Market Approach. The calculation is deterministic: the same inputs always give the same result. Opagio does not publish an accuracy percentage against professional valuations, because the result moves with inputs that you set, such as the royalty rate, the discount rate and projected cash flows. To help you test those inputs, the page shows the method used and restates your assumptions in plain language, and for Relief from Royalty, MPEEM, Replacement Cost and With and Without it adds a sensitivity table showing how the fair value changes when two key assumptions each move up or down by as much as 20%. Use that table to stress-test your conclusions. Opagio is not a valuer, and Asset Valuator outputs are not a signed valuation or a valuation of record. Opagio does not guarantee that an output will be accepted by HMRC, auditors or transaction counterparties, so have a qualified professional review it before you use it in financial reporting, M&A or tax matters. The free Intangible Asset Valuator in the Explore zone is a different tool: it runs no asset-level methods and estimates an enterprise value from an EBITDA multiple.
