OUR SERVICES
Corporate and financial instrument valuation
Justifying the value of assets is critical for most businesses. We understand that our clients need accurate and reliable valuation results that meet both corporate and regulatory requirements and comply with international and Russian standards.
Our professionals perform high-quality valuations of companies, individual assets and a wide range of financial instruments. We estimate the current value of a valuation subject and advise on factors that may affect it in the future. Furthermore, we can do a retrospective valuation for a specific time in the past – something that is critical in various kinds of litigation.
We provide clients with integrated services through a combination of corporate finance and valuation analysis and help them handle important strategic, financial and tax issues.
Business modeling
Our business modeling professionals provide robust quantitative analysis and insight, while leveraging advanced data science, mathematics and statistical skills. We build user-friendly models to assess loan repayment capacity, manage working capital and estimate various investment scenarios. Financial models are a convenient decision-making tool that can be automatically populated and updated as your business grows to help you run it more efficiently.
Our professionals also help clients in reviewing their existing models and carry out model-support and model-building activities needed to make key decisions and improve strategic outcomes.
Economic advisory
We help clients gain insight to make better-informed and economically grounded decisions about strategy, commercial policy, investments and transactions. We apply economic analysis to understand real-world business needs in the areas of:
- Pricing
- Demand forecasting
- Consumer behavior and growth strategy
- Margin optimization and unit economics
Fairness opinion
An independent fairness opinion can help the board mitigate risk by augmenting its transaction review process, strengthening its fiduciary oversight and protecting shareholder value.
When executives pursue transactions, they face heightened scrutiny by shareholders, complicating an already complex process.
Board members need to be diligent, objective and transparent when they evaluate a merger, acquisition, divestiture or other material transaction.
