Intellectual Property Valuations for License and Other Transfer Purposes Part 2

Abstract

This discussion is part two of a two-part series of discussions. Part one described the licensing analyst (analyst) use of the market approach to value intellectual property for license, sale, financing, and other purposes. In particular, part one of this discussion described the analyst’s use of intellectual property license agreement databases to extract market-derived royalty rate data for use in the relief from royalty (RFR) valuation method.

This final installment of this discussion illustrates the analyst’s use of the license agreement databases to select royalty rate data. And, this discussion illustrates the use of that data in an intellectual property valuation.

Keywords: intellectual property valuations, license, transfer purposes, relief from royalty, RFR
