Synergistic Value of a business or asset is the value that a particular investor or group of investors place on that business entity or asset based on individual investment requirements, situation, potential synergies from complementary assets, and expectations. It reflects the individual investor’s expectation of the benefits to be derived from ownership, perception of risk and mix of debt and equity to be used when investing. The term synergistic value arises from the fact that the business or asset is expected to complement existing businesses, expertise, or assets of the buyer to achieve incremental value through positive synergies. The synergistic value is also referred to as the investment value which is normally higher than the fair market value estimate, prompting an incentive to sell.
