Atit Sheth

I value the constant opportunity to work with clients from different backgrounds and industries to both learn and pass on something new every day.

Atit provides fairness opinions, solvency opinions and other financial and valuation advisory services to private and public clients across all industries. His expertise encompasses a broad range of complex transactions, including take-privates, spin-offs, divestitures, tender offers, capital raises, related-party transactions, recapitalizations, GP-led secondaries, liability management exercises, and liability carve-outs. He is a trusted advisor to boards of directors, special committees and private equity GPs, delivering independent advice and insights that guide decision-making in high-stakes scenarios.

Atit brings a unique perspective to his work, having started his career in the transaction opinions service line as an analyst. This foundation has given him a deep understanding of the process at every level, from the meticulous analytics required in detailed modeling to the strategic, high-level perspectives demanded by board members. His hands-on approach ensures that every aspect of an engagement—whether in-depth analysis or big-picture strategy—is executed flawlessly.

In recent years, Atit has been at the forefront of addressing key trends in transaction opinions, including the growing use of continuation vehicles and secondary markets by general partners (GPs) to unlock liquidity and optimize portfolio management. His expertise extends to solvency-focused advisory work, helping clients navigate liability management exercises and carve-out spin-offs where financial stability and strategic value creation are paramount.

Prior to joining Lincoln, Atit served as a Director in the Transaction Opinions practice at Duff & Phelps, where he advised on a wide range of high-profile and complex engagements. His dedication to precision and relevance has consistently earned him recognition as a trusted advisor in the industry.

Atit holds a Bachelor of Science in Business with concentrations in accounting, finance, and technology management from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University.
