  • Business and Share Valuation
    We have acknowledged valuation expertise across all sectors, including construction, retail, technology, financial services, property, manufacturing and agribusiness. These valuations have been undertaken for a variety of purposes, including capital raising, divestment, joint ventures, corporate governance, regulatory requirements and the provision of expert opinions.

  • Cost of Capital Advice
    We provide cost of capital advice to clients across many different industries, including infrastructure, forestry, viticulture, construction, technology, property, agriculture, manufacturing and financial services. Our approach has been scrutinised by the Commerce Commission and the Land Valuation Tribunal, as well as in private arbitrations and High Court proceedings.

  • Investment and Project Appraisal
    In simple terms, we help our clients determine whether or not an investment or new project will be financially viable. Our approach delivers information that helps decision makers fully appreciate the potential impact of future changes to operating conditions, and the factors that they should concentrate on in order to maximise value. We use a full range of tools to provide this information, from simple sensitivity analysis to a more comprehensive Monte Carlo Simulation approach.
