The incidence of adjudicated actions brought by minority stockholders increased dramatically during the last half of the 1990s and it is likely that the trend will continue. Eventually, attention in dissenting stockholder or minority oppression actions turns to the "fair value" of the subject's stock, as defined in the Model Business Corporation Act and decided by state statute. Since courts in different states vary from one to another in their interpretation of fair value, the valuation professionals at HEIN & ASSOCIATES LLP stay informed of relevant case law precedent, and execute each such engagement with a focus on achieving both relative and absolute fairness.
