`
`Overview
`
`Bankruptcy is rapidly becoming more
`common in today’s economic climate.
`Companies are reviewing their allocation
`of contingent liabilities that may have
`been developed under older accounting
`standards that focused on certainty over
`market-based projections. Exponent
`consultants have been involved in
`evaluating environmental liabilities both
`before and after bankruptcy. Current
`accounting standards that are being
`phased in over the next several years
`require companies involved in mergers
`and acquisitions to report certain
`contingencies, including environmental liabilities, at market value.
`
`
`
`These new standards require the recognition of environmental cleanup obligations that,
`fallen into the “cannot be reasonably
`under former accounting standards, may have
`measurement of environmental liabilities
`estimated” category. Understanding fair-value
`is quickly becoming an important business issue. Courts are evaluating solvency issues
`that arise under corporate and bankruptcy laws and are not limited to valuing only the
`debtor’s loans and payables—they also can consider contingent and off~balance—sheet
`liabilities. Creditors and shareholders can implement these accounting standards
`immediately.
`
`Exponent personnel have particular expertise in the following
`issues:
`
`Risk consulting
`Remedial costing
`Valuation for contingent liabilities
`International accounting standards
`Environmental liability valuation and forecasting
`Monte Carlo uncertainty simulations
`Probabilistic cost analysis
`Allocation and apportionment
`Consulting and expert testimony.

`Exponent’s biomechanics staff use engineering and biomedical science to solve complex problems at the
`intersection of biology and engineering. Our expertise is used to understand and evaluate the interaction
`between the human body as a biological system and the physical environment to explore the cause, nature, and
`severity of injuries. We also draw on our expertise in bioengineering, biomaterials, biotransport, and medicine to
`address questions related to medical devices, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology.

`The basic function of a building is to provide structurally sound and environmentally controlled spaces to house
`and protect occupants and contents.
`If this basic function is not achieved, some aspect of the building has
`likely failed to meet its intended purpose. Exponent's architects, engineers, and scientists have a broad range
`of expertise with failures in the built environment and provide clients with in-depth investigations of individual
`components, as well as evaluations of these components’ interdependence with the entire building system.
`
`

`

`Exponent prOVIdes unusually broad expertise in geotechnical engineering, geological engineering, engineering
`geology, geophysics, geomechanics, and groundwater hydrology to address a host of geoafailures, including
`landslides, foundation and retaining wall failures, oil—well distress, and floods, as well as earthwork construction
`claims. Our water resources profeSSionals specialize in the application of proven hydrologic, hydraulic,
`hydrodynamic, and sediment transport research and science to provide scientifically sound and cost—effective
`solutions to our clients.
