Trade Name
Defined:
Simple Definition: “The name of a business.”
Legal Definition: “A name or mark that is used by a person (as an
individual proprietor or a corporation) to identify that person's
business or vocation and that may also be used as a trademark
or service mark.”
Like a trademark or service mark, a trade name is
protected by law against infringement.

Why Value Trade Names?
Financial reporting
ASC 805 and ASC 958 (purchase price allocation)
Regulatory compliance
e.g., Stark Law and/or Anti-Kickback Statute for applicable
transactions within healthcare industry
Tax planning and/or compliance
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Why Value Trade Names?
Evaluate effectiveness of advertising spend
Marketing/branding plan effective?
Brand value increasing?
Financial terms of license/royalty agreements
e.g., co-branding/affiliation arrangements, etc.
Evaluate competitive position

Relief from Royalty Method
Commonly used to value intellectual property assets –
such as trade names
Value is determined based on the theory of avoided cost
(i.e., not having to pay a license fee to use the asset)
Key considerations:
Appropriate royalty rate
Revenue projections
Discount rate
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Royalty Rate
Typically developed from market data such as license
agreements for similar assets/services
Benchmark rates may need to be adjusted (up or down)
to fit the particular facts and circumstances
Common royalty rate data sources include:

RoyaltyStat ®

Royalty Rate Selection
Evaluate comparability
Industry/subject business, etc.
Nature of products/services
Geography
Exclusivity – exclusive arrangements may command higher rates
Evaluate profitability
Companies with strong trade names commonly have higher sales and
profitability as compared to competitors with less well-known brands
Stronger and more profitable brand names commonly will command
higher royalty rates

Qualitative Analysis

an appropriate level for the subject asset

Other Key Considerations
Revenue projections
Anticipated future revenue to be generated from utilizing the
subject trade name/brand
Tax rate
Cash flows should be adjusted to an after-tax basis
Discount rate
Weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
Additional risk premium for intangible assets
Weighted average return on assets (WARA)
Case Study
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Case Study - Background
Local Hospital (LH) is being acquired by Regional Health
System (RHS) as part of its expansion plan.
LH and RHS are both not-for-profit entities.
Assume that we have been engaged by RHS to assist
management with its purchase price allocation in
accordance with ASC 958 (Not-for-Profits Entities) and
ASC 820 (Fair Value Measurement).
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Case Study - Background
LH has been operating under the same trade name for
20+ years and is one of only two hospitals in the area.
LH has a strong reputation and loyal customer base
within its primary and secondary markets.
LH’s trade name will be used by RHS post-transaction
(i.e., LH will be referred to as a subsidiary of RHS for an
indefinite period).
LH’s trade name is considered to be a separately
identifiable intangible asset.
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Case Study – Key Considerations/Steps
Develop DCF model that approximates the purchase
price and determine internal rate of return (IRR) relevant
to the overall transaction.
Revenue projections from the purchase price DCF
model also will be utilized in the RFR model.
Determine economic life of trade name. This will
determine length of cash flow utilized in the RFR
analysis.
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Case Study – Key Considerations/Steps
Research market data and develop range of
benchmark royalty rates for similar trade names.
Use qualitative analysis to adjust benchmark rates to an
appropriate level for LH’s trade name.
Select appropriate discount rate for LH’s trade name
(risk profile, WARA, etc.).
IRR based on purchase price and forecasted cash flows =
14%. Intangible asset risk premium of 2.0% based on
weighted average return on assets analysis (WARA).
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Case Study – Key Considerations/Steps
Apply selected royalty rate to the projected revenues.
Adjust the projected royalty savings to an after-tax basis
using effective tax rate from DCF model.
Compute present value of projected after-tax royalty
savings.
Compute Tax Amortization Benefit (TAB) adjustment.
Copyright © 2016 American Institute of CPAs (AICPA)
Case Study – Key Considerations/Steps
Prepare sensitivity analysis.
Based on range of royalty rates and discount rates.
Utilize collaborative approaches to test reasonableness
of conclusion.

Sensitivity Analysis - Value Indications
Discount Rate

Benchmark royalty rates can be like
finding a needle in a haystack.
Limitations on ability to appropriately
compare entities.
Small variations in selected royalty rate
can impact value significantly.
Qualitative factors can be difficult to
assess/estimate impact.
Corroborative methods and appraiser
judgment is key.
Additional Considerations

Valuing trade names is a bit of an art
and a science!
Total deal: $16 billion
Tradename: $448 million, or 2.8%
$160 billion deal in 2000.
Approximately $10 billion allocated to brand.

Enterprise value less sum of (tangible assets + other
separately identified intangible assets) – is the balance
attributable/available for the trade name and goodwill
reasonable?
Percentage of purchase price based on SEC filings, etc.
25% Rule of Thumb
Assumes that a licensee would pay approximately 25% of its expected
profits generated from using the subject asset
