Modelling and valuation
Why
A good financial model starts with understanding the core of the business, being able to make sense of the past, and the future. What factors drive value? Where is the risk, and where is the potential? Getting these drivers in focus and translating them into a structured financial model creates a powerful tool for decision-making.
In a transactional context, such a model is indispensable: it makes assumptions explicit, shows scenarios and translates strategy into figures. This gives direction to bids, negotiations and investment decisions - and prevents choices being made on the basis of incomplete or inconsistent information.
How
We build financial models that are logically structured, easy to use and directly applicable in the process. In doing so, we clearly distinguish input parameters, assumptions and scenario output, so that the model remains transparent for all stakeholders.
- Analysis of business drivers - identifying the commercial, operational and financial factors that drive value
- Structural design - setting up a logical model structure that matches the process and target group
- Data collection & assumptions - capture reliable inputs and testable assumptions
- Modelling & scenarios - setting up valuations, forecasts and sensitivity analyses
- Presentation of output - visually and substantively clear representation of outcomes, ready for use in negotiation, decision-making and due diligence
The result: a model that is not only computationally sound, but also provides insight, fuels discussion and guides the process.
