BVWire looks forward to Jim Hitchner’s annual webinar where he reviews new concepts, data, models, and methods that have emerged in business valuation over the past year. This is a two-hour program today, February 21 (1 p.m.-3 p.m. ET), that also includes a free issue of his monthly Hardball With Hitchner publication. For details and to register, click here.

On his agenda is a response to an article in the January issue of Business Valuation Update, “Valuation Impact of Corporate-Owned Life Insurance on SCOTUS’ Agenda,” written by Roger Grabowski (Kroll). Hitchner notes that he testified in the Blount case in Tax Court, which “started a lot of this.” He’ll also discuss topics such as normalizing the risk-free rate, new concerns over plagiarism in BV reports, three-stage DCFs (the new norm?), Rule 702 changes, what his new “Myth Busters” group is up to, and much more. See you there!
