When it comes to superior mobile architectural structures, professional sports organizations rely on Uni-Systems. Uni-Systems is a Minnesota-based company that seeks to develop unique and innovative methods for bringing motion to otherwise static structures. It has an international reputation for success in this market segment. Lucas Oil Stadium. Dallas Cowboys Stadium. Minute Maid Park Stadium. Reliant Stadium. University of Phoenix Stadium. All rely on Uni-Systems’ patented technologies to operate safely and effectively.
Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Indianapolis Colts, is no exception. With a capacity of up to 70,000 seats, the stadium relies on the operating mechanism created by Uni-Systems to power its retractable roof. Uni-Systems sought to understand the value of its portfolio of intellectual properties that make up the retractable roof mechanisms for the Lucas Oil Stadium. In the search for a reliable valuation firm, Cyril Silberman, CEO and Founder of Uni-Systems, discovered that the field was limited with those who had the ability to understand embedded software value associated with machinery. This is what led him to hire Pellegrino & Associates, LLC.
During the valuation process, we asked tough questions to understand what makes Uni-Systems’ IP unique. With our skilled staff, we understood more than just the finance of the accounting aspects of the technology. We understood the brains of the technology also. Mr. Silberman commented that Pellegrino & Associates did more than just render an opinion as to what the value might be. We portrayed in graphic form much more than what he had been exposed to previously with appraisal reports. While Uni-Systems has a flare for taking its work to a higher level than traditional engineers, we were able to prove to Uni-Systems that we have a flare for providing valuation services beyond that of a traditional valuation firm.
