Have recent legal decisions impacted your business?
In the past week, SCOTUS issued a decision allowing Patent Act damage awards when exports infringe on U.S. patents. The Court also sided with South Dakota, making it possible for states to collect sales tax from online retailers. Markets reacted immediately, but it will take time to sort out the winners and losers among large retailers, small business, and consumers.
Whether anticipated or unforeseen, when markets change for legal or regulatory reasons, Asterion can provide you with the forensic accounting, valuation and consulting assistance you need to respond.
