Supporting context

This section explains the evidence and judgment used to support the recommendation and the legal, brand and financial assumptions used in the valuation.

Reference case

EQT

Prepared reference case

Indicative value of the EQT investment-manager name on fee-related revenue. It excludes carried interest, fund assets, investor contracts, investment performance, regulatory permissions and the value of EQT AB.

The 3.00% manager-name ceiling is an analyst scenario, not an observed licence or a fund-management fee. Brand strength 78/100 selects 2.34%, approximately EUR 53m on FY2025 fee-related revenue. This is 4.5% of adjusted fee-related EBITDA, a directional capacity check, not name-attributable profit. Legal and behavioral components are outside-in analyst estimates, not a legal opinion or customer survey. Growth and discount rates are scenarios.
Informed by numerous sources including company reporting, investor materials, analyst research, market data and selected benchmark references where relevant.
